know yourself

The government is in the process of developing an online tool to identify bigots in an attempt to increase the number of stigmatised employers in the country. Once the 'Know Yourself' test has been designed, written, redesigned and then rewritten again the live beta version will be uploaded to the internet.

Employers will be encouraged to take the test to see how racist they are. Scores will range from BNP - KKK. Anyone taking the test will be required to print off directions to their local Facility for Learning About Negative Group Ethnic Stereotypes Centre for immediate re-education. Anyone who refuses to voluntarily take the test will be instantly assumed to be a racist and ordered to attend a FLANGES Centre for re-education.

"Using the internet is much more efficient than our existing model of spotting racists" said the minister in charge of the project. "Up until now we've had to rely on the public to report instances of racism but this new survey will speed that up dramatically. There will be no need for expensive investigations. Anyone who takes the test will be deemed racist, as will anyone who doesn't take the test. I'm sure you can agree that the savings to the public purse will be massive."

Just wait. They´ll make it compulsory soon and then they´ll really be able to arrest you on a thought crime.

I did always wonder... ultimately, they cannot control peoples´ minds and many people are bigots and racists (just to differing degrees). I am a self proclaimed bigot and racist, mainly because I´ve had some horrible experiences with certain groups of people.

I mean, who likes pikeys? Its now illegal not to have likes and dislikes. Its utterly ridiculous.
