Speaking of collective feelings, ever notice how Dems are like "The Borg" on Star Trek? They are the prototype.

"We're talking about fashion. Articulate, sensitive people know by instinct that some views are currently acceptable, others not. Which ideas are being worn this season?"

Nail on the head BUMP! The public's reaction to 'sensitive' celebrities' fashionable hate statements is a good example. The public is not as shallow and vapid (PC translation: sensitive) as they are and stopped buying their products. THEY, however, are too sensitive (translation: shallow and vapid) to understand that.

Fulford is GOOOOOD. I wish more publications would pick up his work.

I heard a good quote this weekend. Everyone on the left is petrified to say anything deemed "outside the norm". They apparently feel that if they did so, they would be voted off the island, and be forever denied invitations to the correct parties.

Which ideas are being worn this season?

Excellent reading you never heard of...

"Fashions often revert, but to be popular they modify. It could be that a re-dressed doctrine of witchcraft will be the proper acceptance. Come unto me, and maybe I'll make you stylish. It is quite possible to touch up beliefs that are now considered dowdy, and restore them to fashionableness. I conceive of nothing, in religion, science, or philosophy, that is more than the proper thing to wear, for a while."

                ----Wild Talents  by Charles Hoy Fort, 1932.
Like it? Here's more.

When "shallow" becomes an art form:
