Default Re: Definitions of Multiculturalism

It's a curse word to me, not a philosophical term with a definite meaning. Those who use it in a serious sense are usually traitors, and by that, I don't mean to imply that any of you who took it seriously right here are traitors, it only means that I'm surprised at what I see here.

He said that there were 2 subclasses of minor petty tyrants. The 1st subclass consisted of the petty tyrants who persecute and inflict misery but without actually causing anybody's death. They were called little petty tyrants. The 2nd consisted of the petty tyrants who are only exasperating and bothersome to no end. They were called small-fry petty tyrants or teensy-weensy petty tyrants.

He added that the little petty tyrants are further divided into 4 categories. One that torments with brutality and violence. Another that does it by creating unbearable apprehension through deviousness. Another which oppresses with sadness. And the last, which torments by making warriors rage. "La Gorda is in a class of her own," he added. "She is an acting, small-fry petty tyrant. She annoys you to pieces and makes you rage. She even slaps you." /Carlos Castaņeda
