Part of European culture as opposed to American culture , On surface level this would be a very broad umbrella term extending to Visegrad Four countries just as much as Sweden , so I assume this is in reference to northwestern Europe . If it ' s a traditional part of British culture , why did Neil Addison say what he said ? Why weren ' t these laws passed much earlier ? Anthony Comstock censored mail in the 1890 s and had people jailed for sending birth control information , Ovid ' s love poetry , etc . Does that make it a traditional element of American culture ? and came before SJW was even a term . If it ' s the same ideological tenetse . g . , we have to protect the feelings of Muslims and blacks , if people say bad things about them then the result will be mass lynchingsdo the specific labels or the existence of the internet matter ? For example , Stephen Jay Gould of Morton overstuffed the European and East Asian skulls to make the Africans look bad fame didn ' t have a Tumblr account . He still believed that acknowledging differences would cause racial oppression no mention , of course , that the Chinese were heavily persecuted in America at the time of Morton ' s study .
