The really dangerous aspect of this is that emotion is the easiest way to manipulate people. Orwell’s hate week is a very good example.

Interestingly, one of the areas where the sneering, snarling denizens of political correctness are seen most is that of global warming. I have never read anything about AGW that didn’t turn out to be a lie or fabrication, but if you disagree with the PC team they will call you stupid.

That’s people who have no idea beyond what they’ve read in the big business sponsored media like The Guardian.
