The Tyranny of the Minorities

“…If allowed any rights of their own, they will acknowledge no rights at all in any one else, and never will yield in anything, unless they can be compelled…”
John Stuart Mill, The Subjection of Women 1869

Political correctness has become the primary weapon used against freedom of thought and freedom of
speech. Now it is even being extended to control or limit your freedom of assembly and association.
Minorities are not at a disadvantage in Canada or other western countries. In fact they live enviable lives.
The high profile minorities have commandeered special treatment and privileges that most other Canadians simply do not have
They suppress dissent by attacking their opponents as racist or sexist or any kind of “ist” they can invent.
People who take an opposing stand to some of the vocal minority groups are routinely attacked as
racist, sexist, anti semite or homophobic by those who make handsome livings from government grants to promote
the special treatment and privilege masquerading as freedoms in Canada.
They bully, using false accusations, intimidation and claims of harassment in the name of
“charter rights” and political correctness. . . and they get away with it
In fact many of these groups have become like the pigs in Animal Farm. They exploit. They are now the
problem not the solution. And if calling someone a pig offends, remember that for decades women called all men pigs and were rewarded for what was simply hate.
Being a member of a minority group does not make one correct. Just politically correct.
If you have an opinion on an issue, you are entitled to it. You do not have to accept that minority
groups are right and you are wrong any more than you have to accept that your neighbour”s religion is
holier then yours.
Discrimination is wrong. But today it seems that the vocal militant minorities are the primary
discriminators, not the general public. Charter rights challenges have become a huge industry The
three most vocal groups in Canada, Indians, Feminists and Homosexuals account for some 80% of all the
human rights law suits brought before the Supreme Court of Canada. Yet Canada is easily the most
tolerant, non discriminatory nation on the planet.
Our minorities have many more “rights” then the rest of us. They certainly have far more
rights then they would in most of the rest of the world.
The general public, it seems, has been brain washed into a deep fear that criticizing the position or
opinions of a minority group member makes them some sort of politically incorrect monster.
Not so. These groups have learned to use the media, the courts and the police as weapons to control and limit
the freedom of the rest of us. There is no doubt that some minority group members flaunt and exploit their differences,
apparently believing that only they have grasped truth and are in fact somehow, like True Believers, actually superior to the majority of Canadians.
Canadians have every right to disagree with the politically correct tyrants shouting down all who disagree with them
Canadians have every right to support the rights of the majority or to hold an unpopular opinion despite the various “isms and a pandering press.
Members of both minorities and majorities have all the rights that the rest of us have.
The problem is not an issue of rights. The real problem is that so many of the vocal minority groups are not seeking equal rights, they are seeking, and getting, special privileges.
