UK: vindaloo racism

Toddlers who dislike spicy food 'racist'
07/07/2008, Telegraph:

Toddlers who turn their noses up at spicy food from overseas could be branded racists by a Government-sponsored agency.

The National Children's Bureau, which receives £12 million a year, mainly from Government funded organisations, has issued guidance to play leaders and nursery teachers advising them to be alert for racist incidents among youngsters in their care.

This could include a child of as young as three who says "yuk" in response to being served unfamiliar foreign food ...

It alerts playgroup leaders that even babies can not be ignored in the drive to root out prejudice as they can "recognise different people in their lives".

The 366-page guide for staff in charge of pre-school children, called Young Children and Racial Justice, warns: "Racist incidents among children in early years settings tend to be around name-calling, casual thoughtless comments and peer group relationships."

It advises nursery teachers to be on the alert for childish abuse such as: "blackie", "Pakis", "those people" or "they smell".

The guide goes on to warn that children might also "react negatively to a culinary tradition other than their own by saying 'yuk'".

Staff are told: "No racist incident should be ignored. When there is a clear racist incident, it is necessary to be specific in condemning the action."...

Lawrence Auster:

As sick and evil as the current European order is, I think that the following story, in the Telegraph, could not have come from any European country other than Britain. Only the Brits have taken depraved liberalism this far ...

Some will be tempted to write Britain off after a story like this, and so many similar stories before it, but there should be no complacency. The rest of the West is following not far behind. And, while I'm sure that "conservative" commentators on our side of the Pond are clucking at this "crazy" example of PC run amok, and various British columnists are anguishing about how mad their country has become, none of them has anything to say against the anti-discrimination ideology that underlies it, because they themselves subscribe to that ideology, or, at best, have no principled position with which to oppose it.

Thus when Britain's Sexual Orientation Regulations were passed requiring Catholic adoption services to adopt to homosexual couples, Tory politicians and Melanie Phillips were outraged and horrified at this attack on basic liberty. But they were only outraged at the fact that the Government had refused to exempt Catholic adoption services from the reach of the Regulations. They had not a word to say against the Regulations themselves, which prohibit discrimination against homosexuals in the provision of goods and services throughout the Dead Island ...

But for how many years, even in this country, have politicians and activists routinely said things like, "Discrimination has no place in America," "A single incident of discrimination is too much," etc., without being gainsaid by anyone?

"No racist incident should be ignored" as applied to small children is just a further application of the same idea. Anti-racism has no internal brake. Unless there is an articulate belief system that forthrightly states that discrimination is not the main evil in the world, the anti-racist madness will just keep tightening its grip on us.

For most of us, our nervous systems are hardwired to seek out conformity and a homogeneous and familiar environment - call it the herd instinct, or whatever fits your belief system. It's a fact. Politically-correct brainwashing is only setting up children to become confused: told to celebrate what they innately dislike. All things foreign hit the subconscious with micro-shocks: different faces, smells and languages all cause unease and discomfort. Diversity is ahistorical and completely unnatural for our nervous systems. We should isolate our children from it, not throw them into a diverse school, and definitely not allow this sort of brainwashing to confuse them. Children will become confused and bitter if they are not allowed to honour their feelings, nor express their natural thoughts and emotions.

Young people living in diverse cities, suffering the constant pangs of orienting overload, often become addicted to stimulation e.g. alcohol, or forever getting another tattoo or piercing. When they cannot relax because of diversity, and may never learn what relaxation is, some constantly seek stimulation or distraction in order to cope. Or worse, they interpret the assault on their senses for what it is: assault. And it's no surprise from there that some may respond with anti-social behaviour or violence. So these low-level sensory assaults can escalate into violence - exactly where Britain is now.

Wanting to live in a homogeneous environment is not racism, and not hatred: it's emotional intelligence and proactive policing. It's the "relaxed and comfortable" state that Poms and Australians seek - the way our countries used to be. The white flight in schools and suburbs suggests that many agree.

So whilst the Poms are singing Vindaloo, their relaxed and peaceful environment is destroyed, and their children are set up for a fall:
