Title: Political Correctness
Post by Midnightrider on 02/26/13 at 14:14:14

There ‘s an annual contest at the Griffith University, Australia,
calling for the most appropriate definition of a contemporary term.

This year's term was 'political correctness'.

The winning student wrote:

"Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional,
illogical minority, and rapidly promoted by mainstream media,
which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible
to pick up a piece of sh!t by the clean end."

political correctness is simply not being an not a very nice person, now sometimes it is unintentional and idiots jump on it and all kinds of accusatory crap happens, it mainly stems from the idea that "YOUR" life isn't the ONLY life and people have different experiences and perspectives, sometimes that stuff clashes together and people get defensive about the miscommunication which makes a mess of communication

Political correctness is just another tired remnant of 1920s Marxism. Ranks right up there with affirmative action as a means to make the less than useful feel better about themselves with no effort on their part.

It used to be very easy to define political correctness. All you had to do is watch Bill Maher’s Politically Incorrect on HBO and everything they said was, in the height of irony, politically correct.
