United Germany & The Beginning of the End for the Socialist System in Eastern Europe

[Pannonian]

wow, that post had nothing to do with PC.

Survivors of the East German dictatorship have recently testified that the greatest victory of the regime was to have created an atmosphere in which citizens engaged in self-censorship – avoided uttering even some sentiments that might not have concerned the authorities. Look at 21st-century Britons, tongue-tied in conversation, groping for some PC euphemism (“If I’m allowed to say that…”) in what was once the most iconically free-spoken country on earth. Who needs a Stasi with people censoring themselves?

Really?

Really?

yes.

my post addressed Subotan's statement about Vaclav Klaus.
