In a group the only sane person will look insane compared to the others.

I guess some also just don't like that he brings negative attention to his home country.

I mean, forced speech? You can do better Canada.

Canadian government is a bunch of hatefilled fascists. They hate their people and they hate therefor democracy. Time for the people to fight against this tyrrany.

I'll answer you using Michel Foucault's Thoughts about discourse.

Foucault describes three external exclusions which constrain discourse and which lead to discourse being produced. Taboo; distinction between true and false and distinction between the mad and the sane. I focusing on the latter.

To called some one mad or nuts it's a way of silencing positions you dislike. When someone is perceived as crazy you should not even bother to answer his arguments. It is a common practice among progressives to continue to control information and silence any alternative that threatens their worldview. I think you understand my point here.

Its not only that. Zizek compared this behaviour with the stalinists in the USSR. Every regime opponent was shown as mentally instable. Therefor opposition against the tyrrany meant, in this misanthropic view of the world, that you had a problem with your mental wellness and therefor you had to be cured.

Stalinists and fascists arent that far positioned from one another.

clint had talent.

It's inaccurate to claim that ol' Jordy doesn't have talent, whether or not one agrees or disagrees with what he says. Let's save those charges of talentlessness for the likes of Brendan Schaub, Amy Schemer, and Paul Elam

reply

Well thats because Canadians live in White Privilege Paradise and are therefor ignorant to the real world.
