Cardigan, the paper to which you refer us is not authoritative.

It simply sets out the views of some members of the sick and sorry “discipline” of Anthropology, and in typical activist fashion, claims it to be the view of a majority.

Even if it were a majority, the assertion is simply an opinion, which will be fashionable for a time, despite its obvious flaws, and will finish up on the scrap heap where it belongs, in due course.

It is irrelevant to the discussion, in any event. The discussion relates to the use of the word “racist”.

Whether “race” exists or not, this objectionable anti-white pejorative word is plainly in common use.

Yes, what a load of inconsequential and jingoistic rubbish. I have no doubt Anne is a modern chardonnay socialist, with very wealthy parents, went to a private school, has had a lesbian experience and whose idea of a rough time is actually getting a luke warm latte and not being able to shop for a new butt plug online. A lot like Natasha Stott Despoja really. Most leftys are like slinky springs, they don't really serve any particular purpose but hell they are fun to push down the stairs.

Leo,

Would you like to say something sensible in criticism of the AAA Statement on Race instead of frothing at the mouth?
