Fascism Reigns in Canada
I can't argue with anyone who says that the political landscape in my home country is fascist. At least it's getting more and more so everyday.
Recently the politically-correct and fearful of artistic freedom and free speech took another swipe at liberty when they had the rock group, Dire Straits' Money for Nothing banned from playing on Canadian radio because it makes reference to "that little faggot got his own jet airplane. That little faggot, he's a millionaire."
Nevermind the fact that this song is over 20 years old and despite it's lyrics was an MTV hit before the politically correct police warped the minds of the youth. Apparently it's o.k. to say "nigger," "cracker," ho," and "bitch" and to condone the murder of police officers and violence on women on rap songs, just don't you dare insult gays...even if it is two and a half decades later. How about the fact that women are called "chicks" in this song? Are they going to ban the use of that word too? I mean it this context, aren't they referred to as whores? And by the way, Sting sang back vocals on this tune. Is there going to be a great movement to ban the works of this lefty favourite? Don't count on it.
What other songs should be banned then? How about "Doing Work for Yuda" and "You Are What You Is" by Frank Zappa? How about Randy Newman's "Short People?" Or hey, how about Queen's "Fat Bottom Girls?"
Hold on to your liberties America. You could be next.
