What the HEll is............"political Correctness"......and why was it created????

What exactly do the inner cities have to do with the rise of political correctness? And why do you assume that all liberal people (and only liberal people) are responsible for conditions in the inner cities? Perhaps the people there tend to be liberal because the right has failed them?
Harkening back to your op, why shouldn’t the hegemony of white males be broken? That would seem like a good thing to me. The government should be run by all the people, not just white males. Or are you saying that because I am a black female I am immediately excluded from any position of power or authority regardless of my capabilities? It takes all kinds, Kuk.

Heil to the Chief, huh? By the bye, your link is as faulty as your reasoning.

I agree with political correctness because I believe races do not exist outside of a social division context. We are all human, society invented race and its related connotations for the most part, for teh past 50+ years we’ve (society) has attempted to make a egalitarian society, why allow these false ideas of race to continue? Why should we try to divide the world between ‘black’ ‘white’ ‘red’ ‘yellow’ and whatever? Similarly I agree with encouraging any and all forms of racial mixing, socially, and most importantly, sexually. Eliminating (or modifying) language with racial connotations would (does) prove useful to these ends.

THE “FRANKFURT SCHOOL”:
The Historical Roots of Political Correctness

…IF you understand the great Dangers that face our nation…Perhaps you’ll consider joining us?

you nation needs YOU!

Ahhh…2 Liberals :slight_smile:

Lets see here…First of all…aldiboronti.
Sorry about the link…I will find it for you!

As for your comment Sir/Miss…Sounds like a typical LIBERAL…Attack a persons “logic”…BUT NEVER state WHY?
…never debate any issues…Just attack them!

OF course what did I expect from a British School teacher ?
…afterall, YOU are the driving force of “PC” brainwashing now are’nt ya!

“hey teacher…leave those kids alone!!”

photopat,

Again…a standard LIBERAL take!
No debate on the issues at hand, just attacks and crys of “racism”…“3 K’s in his name…ohhh my god…protect the children”…“Just another neo-nazi group dedicated to white supremacy”…“I suspect your organization would enjoy using force on people it sees as a threat.”

…blah,blah,blah…did you have anything to say about the ISSUES here?

…do you have ANY REASONS for your OPINIONS?
(or are you just a typical liberal…who doesnt really know why you think the way you do?)…(“PC” brainwashing has that effect on many liberals I know!) :slight_smile:

Anyway…longing for real comments…real debate…on real issues…should any come up!

Thanks though,

Kukulkon

BTW…IF…you looked at the (the ANU) website???

WHY DIDNT YOU READ THE PARTY PLATFORM?

IF…you would have you would have seen that the 8# article of the Party platform reads:

“Allow self-determination for all peoples and nations, while opposing the exploitation or oppression of any country or group of people.”
…Kinda S-P-E-L-L-S it out for you right there Miss!!!
(so…perhaps next time you want to attck someone (for no reason) you may want to actually read the information first…Just…MHO!)

Chow!

Wow…

Im kinda new in these here parts, folks so let me in on something.

Did I place this post in the wrong section of this board?

Is there someplace I can post on this board to find the Adults?

Is there a section on this board where intellegent people actually debate the topics…or issues…at hand?

sure not what I expected from the “straight dope” gang…(not to be un"PC"…but your posts look more like the…“smoke dope” gang?

longing for real debate, and I.Q.'s over 80(should there be any here?)

Hey Gex…

You dont have to agree with the article…nor do you have to agree with me on this issue…or any othere issue.

I just thought that after ~10 posts on this thread …1…1…1…of you liberals would have somthing MORE to say on this subject…something more than just silly person attacks?

…I mean dont you find it very strange that not a single one of you good people have been able to find issue with the actual ARTICLE…and TOPIC at hand?

…other than to enter into the exact same evil…you claim to be fighting?
I guess we should all (liberal or conservatives…black or White)…Agree that this is the basic truth of the “PC” agenda!

thanks,

Kukulkon

Ino…"I’ll get a good job in the post-apocalyptic world run by women and minorities. "

…hahah…very good sir!:slight_smile:

Just one question though?

Since the stronghold of the LIBERAL…“PC”…party is found in the large cities of this nation…and since ALL of these large cities are well known waste lands of crime/poverty/destruction/chaos/lawless/rape/confusion/evil…and the like.

…and since ALL of our large cities are economic basket cases.

What kind of job are you thinking of getting?

and moreover…what kind of “Future” do you see in this system?

Just wondering?

:looks out window:

Nope, Dallas is still standing, don’t see roving gangs of rapists.

Must have my liberal/marxist glasses on.

You contradict yourself, saying that you both agree with ‘PC’ and that you want racial barriers eliminated.

PC gave us the racial check boxes on however many gov’t forms. PC gave us EO. And it is the PC-left that keeps harping on racial differences.

‘Political Correctness’ and racial equality are mutualy eclusive.

Wow… this is fun!

sits back and waits for Kukulkon’s inevitable implosion

(sigh)

alright, i’ll go the “liberal pc” route:

political correctness is an attempt at scouring our language (and by that, our mentality) from unfair bias.

for example, as long as we equate “black” with “evil, sinister” in our language, we will continue to do so in our minds.

We will thus unconsciously participate in racism, sexism, etc. So we must go really overboard and by really vigilant over our language in order to come to a place where we can eliminate bias from our thinking

Your discomfort with having to learn some new words should have little bearing on the overall goal of fairness.

it’s like spinach, brussel sprouts, broccolli. You know it’s good for you, but ice cream tastes so much better (judging by your post my guess is you would like vanilla rather than chocolate)
