"Celebrating" diversity

Why the cunting fucking fucking FUCK do we have to fucking celebrate this fucking shit?

Why, in the interests of true fucking equality, can we not just fucking ignore it? What is more equal: ignoring someone's "diversity" and treating them like you would anyone else, or "celebrating" it, making a huge and phoney fuss about it and consequently denigrating every fucker who isn't "diverse"?

Calm down missus. We have to respect, even celebrate, diversity in order to rectify historical injustice and expunge our guilt. Didn't you know that? It's time we all faced up to our latent racism.

I lived in Stoke on Trent for a decade (punishment posting) and all they kept saying was "You aren't from round here, are you". Although, to be fair, they regarded Congleton as foreign parts and the border was at the Cobridge traffic lights.

Celebrating diversity is very bad manners, very rude indeed. It says "You aren't from round here and you don't belong here". Celebrating diversity denigrates every person who IS diverse, as well as everyone who isn't.

Thing is, celebrating diversity is an embracing of values and customs that are alien to us. This is very affirming for the "other", and enriching for us. The alternative is separation, misunderstanding, fear and ultimately disorder. Obviosuly we will need to adapt to the changing demographic and...

oh God, I can't go on.

Come on Obo, how the fuck else do you highlight the fact that these people are different (and hence, by definition, inferior), without being branded a racist?

Diversity? I still think of it as wogs, niggers, nips, wops, froggies, huns, japs, etc and have made sure my daughters did not marry any of them. Mark you at the moment I am trying it on with a delicious Thai waitress!

This is a good essay on why the diversity industry is increasing. It is based on acadamia but would be true for any organisation.

Depends on the diversity in question I suppose. You should see the looks I get when I go off on a 6 week bender and am stoating along the waterfront at 10am fully bladdered.

No one gives me a parade.
