The Cultural Conditioning of Refusing to Read that Which is Politically Incorrect

I recently posted an article concerning a region of Norway where two young Norwegian men recount their experience of growing up with immigrants who attack and bully them because of their limited familial protection due to single parents and the fact that the immigrants have extensive "clans" if you will.
Here is an excerpt from the article describing how how societal conditioning of respecting everybody, not being xenophobic, etc, has led to their stories being stamped out of the debate in public discourse.
"Andreas says that he feels betrayed. And his conversation with the journalists from Finansavisen is the first time that adults let him speak freely, the first time that he doesn’t have to hold back and place restrictions on himself. He says that he wants to become an actor. He wants to make a movie. Maybe a movie about the real “our valley”. He says that he wants to join the HV youth (the youth division of the National Guard). “He wants the uniform. He craves the authority that a uniform gives. No one messes with a soldier.”
Finansavisen’s reporters suggest that adolescence can be tough for everybody, and they wonder how much of it is actually about growing up in the valley and how much is trauma that many adolescents experience, such as differentness, loneliness and exclusion. They even ask them if they are paranoid — if there really is something to be afraid of. Maybe they have deliberately isolated themselves and gone into hiding and started worshipping imaginary horrors that have replaced reality?
The boys’ response is laughter:
They laugh. They smile. The journalists have not understood.
“It is not imagination when they shout after me, when they threaten me, when they hit me,” says Andreas.
“Are you afraid to walk around alone?”
“I’m not. Not any more,” says Marius.
“There are many places that I don’t go alone. Especially at night,” says Andreas.
We follow Andreas to the subway station.
“Do you see?” he says, and guides our attention to two immigrants. “Do you see how they stare back?”
He’s right. They do stare. We lower our gaze first.
Once again we hear the animal metaphors that permeates their language:
“They are like cats, says Andreas — cats never back down. They challenge you. I get so f***ing mad.”
Let that sink in. When the boys are confronted with, maybe your just being paranoid, they laugh. The attacks, the beatings, the threats, these things are not made up. This is a real story about real ethnic Norwegians who are fighting for their right to live in their own country. Growing up stories concerning natives fighting for their very survival were always my favorite. Sitting Bull taking down Custer at Little Big Horn, the battle of Thermopolye, among others, are great stories concerning how the underdog wins against the odds.
Even though the article I posted concerns real life stories, the very first comment was, "Do Not Read".
To the people who liked that comment, and the person who posted that, what is so wrong with me posting an article concerning the struggles of young men fighting for their lives in their homeland, being betrayed by their leaders and being attacked by gangs of marauding foreigners?
I've always believed in Doctor King's message of judging others on the content of their character and not on the color of their skin, and I still believe that. But the refusal of many to even recognize that racism is a two way street, that white's are not always the majority shacking down the minority, my experience in everyday life of other races treating their own with more regard than people who look like me, and the refusal of many to even READ about situations where whites are getting the shaft in their homelands, leads me to believe that Heartiste really is right.
It's not about right and wrong. It's not about equality, true diversity, treating everyone with respect. The modern liberal mindset is simply anti-white man. It's about shaming people who post real stories of struggle in multicultural communities rather whitewashed stories to make everything seem ok, even when real battles are taking place between cultures.
The disregard that people have for real debate concerning issues around immigration and multiculturalism promoting snide remarks and shaming techniques instead of actual critique leads to whites like me to become more distrustful of "others" not more trustful. Why should we not read what is really going on in the world? I don't understand the attitude of, "Well, this doesn't fit in with my worldview so I can't even be bothered to read it I have such a weak mind."
