Pascal Bruckner Quotes
Progressive Thought Is Blind When It Suggests That There Can Be No Anti-white Racism Or An Anti-semitism Among The Formerly Oppressed Or The Young People In The Projects Because They Themselves Have Suffered From This Evil. They Are The Victims; They Are Exempt From The Prejudices That Affect The Majority Of The Population. But The Reverse Is True: Racism Is Multiplying At Exponential Rates Among Groups And Communities, Taboos Are Collapsing, And Everything Is Explained In Terms Of Physical Characteristics, Identity, Purity, And Difference. And This Is A Racism That Is All The More Certain That It Is Right Because It Is Regarded As A Legitimate Reaction On The Part Of The Persecuted. Now We See The Obsession With The Pedigree And The Old Distinctions Derived From Slavery Being Revived, And Prejudices Accumulating In The Name Of Racism. This Is The End Of The Concept Of Humanity As Union In Diversity And The Triumph Of Human Species Incompatible With Each Other.
