OH MAH GAWD
I'm in love with this article.
James Taranto wins the Internet today!
"Multiculturalists are no less prone than other human beings to be
hostile to out-groups. It's just that they are willing to accept almost
anyone foreign, or otherwise identifiably different, into their in-group."
"A more abstract form of this parochialism is the multiculturalists'
frequent insistence that "only white people can be racist." In this
view, racism is perhaps the greatest moral failing of which human beings
are capable--but nonwhites are absolved of moral responsibility for
their racial prejudices."
"But moral responsibility is the essence of humanity. It is what sets Homo sapiens
apart from other animals. Assigning moral responsibility to whites
while denying it to nonwhites is therefore a way of dehumanizing the
latter. Multiculturalism turns out to be a disguised form of white
supremacy."
