Maybe you just haven't looked at it this way.

"Political correctness means using words or behavior which will not offend any group of people." is the core definition of political correctness.

That has nothing to do with "PC". Like, at all.





Political correctness means using words or behavior which will not offend any group of people. That's the bare bones definition. People who do this, generally do so out of decency. They are appreciative of the fact that words like "thug" "faggot" and "negro" have taken on certain connotations in society and to do so, they avoid using those words out of the sincere desire to not cause offense in those people.

That's part of decency and of being a gentleman or lady, conforming ones behavior to the comfort of those around you.

Then there are people who knows certain words offend, but instead of adjusting their vocabulary out of politeness they deliberately choose to offend and often defend their right to do so. Rather than the attitude of asdjusting to their company they have the attitude that their company should adjust to them.




"conforming ones behavior to the comfort of those around you"

Or else right?  Since when do civilized people have to conform their "behavior" for the "comfort" of other people or face serious ramifications?  That's called bullying and it's immoral.

It looks like women, ethic minorities, and homosexuals all ganged up together to blame straight white males for their problems, conform or else is the message.  Guess what?  The PC movement is a joke that no sane person respects.

nonononono you didnt read that right. I was talking of people adjusting their own behavior, not that of others.

There's a difference between entertaining and idea and being sold on it. I think he is sold on feeling that the world is out to get him.

Back in the day Political Correctness was called faggotry.  Microaggressions?  Suck it up, buttercup.  A fucking society of overly sensitive wimps.  Has anybody noticed that the only group it is socially acceptable to make fun of and bash are white heterosexual males?  Here is my message to all those who partake.  I'm tough enough, assholes.  We rule, you drool.

if i was a part of the crowd you might have been onto something with that.

unfortunately the fence i sit on is rather large, on this issue of who's being a wimp and who isn't in this debate. i just don't care enough about people's 'talk' when the proceeding actions don't even nearly affirm the words.

Or it will be two parties that are nearly identical except for trivial differences like one party being more "politically correct" than the other.
