Racism and how to create it

Jonathan Turley’s blog at www.jonathanturley.org is a good place to find out about the continuing effort by extremists – our new tyrant class - to eliminate “inappropriate speech” and racism – in both cases by attacking those who they deem to have transgressed.  However, it strikes me that what they consider to be inappropriate speech often is not and that those they accuse of being racist often are not.  Moreover, the nature of many of their racist accusations strikes me as themselves being racist behavior.

 My guess is that these extremists are creating racists and producing divisiveness.  It is time to call a spade a spade – these extremists are dangerous to the health of our civilization and need to be exposed for what they are.

 For those who do not know English, here is Wikipedia’s definition of “call a spade a spade”.  My use of the term is as explained there.  I do not favor redefining words or eliminating them to appease our new tyrant class.

 "Call a spade a spade" is a figurative expression. It is also referred to as "let's call a spade a spade, not a gardening tool", which refers to calling something "as it is",[1] that is, by its right or proper name, without "beating about the bush"—being outspoken about it, truthfully, frankly, and directly, even to the point of being blunt or rude, and even if the subject is considered coarse, impolite, or unpleasant.

 The idiom originates in the classical Greek of Plutarch's Apophthegmata Laconica, and was introduced into the English language in 1542 in Nicolas Udall's translation of the Apophthegmes, where Erasmus had seemingly replaced Plutarch's images of "trough" and "fig" with the more familiar "spade." The idiom has appeared in many literary and popular works, including those of Oscar Wilde, Charles Dickens, Ralph Waldo Emerson,[2] W. Somerset Maugham, and Jonathan Swift.
