The other night I caught a bit of the debate in the House of Commons about whether Donald Trump should be let into the U. K. for a visit. That's rich. A bizarre straining at a gnat while swallowing a camel of unassimilable elements who spell the eventual doom of the host culture. Am I exaggerating? By how much? Am I just plain wrong? I hope so!
In other news, in the land of poets and thinkers, an imam in Cologne blames the rapes and assaults of women and girls on their mode of dress and olfactory attractiveness. "They were half-naked and wearing perfume." That Koelnisch Wasser will do it every time.
Story here:
Sami Abu-Yusuf agrees with Cologne Mayor Henriette Reker, who also blamed the victims and promised to give the women of Cologne “guidance” so they could “prepare” next time. Presumably she will direct them not to be “half naked and wearing perfume.” A hijab might set off their ensemble quite nicely, and avoiding provoking the poor Muslim migrants.
We'll have to see what happens. Perhaps as Europe and the U. K. go under, we will wake up in time. If the hate-America leftists let us.
It is actually a great time for a philosopher to be alive. Grist for the mill, owl of Minerva, all those by now overworked MavPhil tropes.
