I see the Sydney Opera House's Festival of Dangerous Ideas has rolled around again.
Does anyone really believe that this 'festival' is dangerous? The Opera House will present a number of personalities who are on the chat circuit who wil be spruiking their ideas on economics, gender, race, culture and sex.
It's hard to imagine this chat-fest threatening anyone. Most who will attend will be well educated middle class citizens who can afford to be entertained for an hour or so by this promotional event.
You don't need to travel far to find your own real festival of dangerous ideas. Just google a few key words like 'hate' 'immigrants' 'kinky' 'conspiracy' then drill down to a few blogs and chat rooms and you'll find plenty of danger lurking there.
But for those who want to be entertained…
