An Australian commissioner instructs citizens to stop talking about burqas.
Victoria’s anti-discrimination watchdog wants the burqa debate shelved because it puts Muslims in danger.
Equal opportunity and human rights commissioner Helen Szoke said yesterday that constantly airing the issue threatened the safety of Muslim women on public transport and in other public places.

“Shelve all debates,” said Mr UD when
I told him about Commissioner Szoke.
“Those deliberative democracy types
are really annoying.”

These human rights commissions make me think that perhaps Orwell is a figment of my imagination. They are beyond parody (see the case of Ezra Levant in Canada).
