dominatinMC wrote: » Ya I definitely agree with the above. However, are these liberal PC SJWs really " the masses " or "the crowd"? Basically what I'm asking is do they, and their viewpoints, really represent the majority of the population? I would argue that they don't, and that they are simply the more vocal, with social media being the ideal platform to form an echo chamber and/or circlejerk for their ideals! Most people on here seem to disagree with all this PC/SJW tripe, most of the people I know (friends from rural communities, work colleagues in an urban setting) strongly dislike this current zeitgeist. Are we part of the elusive silent majority? I would think so, and believe that social media has contributed greatly to the proliferation of PC ideals. Rant over! But that Roe McDermott one really winds me up the wrong way!

And we had Marianne McKeown on the US slot a few wks back saying that you can't be racist against white people as their in the majority and are privileged. Which Matt basically didn't challenge. Anyone else got other new age truisms to add to that list from The Last Word?
