I wish today's culture wasn't based so much on emotions. We're so afraid of "hurting someone's feelings" we censor ourselves and withhold our true views on a subject because of the emotional pressure our society puts on us. I understand this is to make everyone happy and help tolerance but it does the complete opposite.
What is tolerated are only fairly liberal cultural, social and political views. If someone thinks different they're bound to offend the majority so therefore their opinion is not tolerated. These social liberals call themselves open-minded when it is truly the opposite.
The words "acceptance" "tolerance" and "diversity" usually are associated with race in today's culture. This is a mistake. If we're so emotionally conscious why do we feel no remorse in flaming someone who has different ideals and opinions? Why is it okay to BE different but not to THINK different?
