Political Correctness: Stop Lying to Children, Tell Them the Truth

Children should be told the truth. It will be in their best interest that they find out sooner rather than finding out for themselves later. Political correctness instructs that all are equal. From that false premise comes the wasteful programs that mandate no one can advance until a measure of that advancement is redistributed among others. Whether it take the form of affirmative action or cash payments or services, it creates a false obligation and a kind of embarrassment to achievers. The fact is that we are known by our differences. Kids in school who can't or refuse to learn should be expelled. Let them make their own way in manual labor or private studies. But they shouldn't drag others down to their level. Teachers have no right to preach a quasi-religious philosophy of equality. What do they know?

The real world is slowly replacing political correctness with misanthropy. It doesn't have to swing that far. If the truth is told of differences among all creatures then each will find his or hers own place without feeling falsely oppressed.

Monsanto,Monkeys & Misanthropy

According to the late, renowned evolutionary biologist Stephen Jay Gould the human is more than 1/2 made of bacteria that is found elsewhere in the natural world. In spite of that physical fact, the Monsanto Chemical Company recently reported record sales of it's herbacide Roundup which also kills insects as an unintended fallout. Monsanto also hailed it's record sales of genetically modified crop seeds like corn and soybeans. These seeds also deprive many insects in the chain of life of food. So what's the human's future with these poisons already killing our relatives?

Meanwhile in India, indigenous monkeys who once lived in rural jungles have seen their space turned into human cities and the monkeys are fighting back by refusing to leave and in some cases harassing the humans! So Indian authorities are sterilyzing the monkeys to mitigate the problem. All told, it's plenty of reason to be more than a little misanthropic. The inevitable coming plague or virus that will reduce our numbers will be somewhat welcome.
