Another thing that bothers me about this multiculturalism is when people ask me: 'How can you be sure that you are not a racist?' My answer is that there is only one way. If I can exchange insults, brutal jokes, dirty jokes, with a member of a different race and we both know it's not meant in a racist way. If, on the other hand, we play this politically correct game - 'Oh, I respect you, how interesting your customs are' - this is inverted racism, and it is disgusting.
Slavoj Zizek, filósofo esloveno de quem nunca tinha ouvido falar em entrevista à Spiked.

A entrevista é cheia de trechos interessantes, girando principalmente em torno de como a percepção de que vivemos em um mundo pós-político dificulta a resolução de conflitos, e o multiculturalismo é parte desse problema. (RSF)
