Can PC be eradicated in our Lifetimes?

[Mac1958]

Never happen I think it will only get worse one day all people will say is hello and goodbye out of fear anything else might upset or offend someone.

If the "offended" one thinks they can gain some advantage, yep.

What does 'eradicating PC' even mean?

That's what I was wondering. Reminds of the campaign to "stamp out intolerance".

This thread would have been much more interesting if the PC in the title had been a reference to PoliticalChic.

Anyone else think Mac is a little sensitive?

Political correctness is in the head and ears of the beholder. No one will ever be satisfied until you finally capitulate your beliefs and moral principles to theirs. In a sense its intimidation to extract subservience. PC is evolving to not only touch on morality and personal but on political beliefs as well. As an old man once said "screw em if they cant take it".

what do you consider negative 'political correctness?'

Any Political correctness by definition is negative

give an example. what do you consider to be political correctness, and how is it negative?

were everyone has to say their ethnicity before "American"...if we are all Americans than it should not matter where your ancestors came from....that should only matter if the cops are looking for you....

 

[Harry Dresden]

I have never allowed political correctness to influence my speech or actions. In fact, I take pride in being the kind of person that ignores the dictates of political correctness most of the time. I respect that a group of people are offended by certain words and terms and have no problem making changes to insure I do not offend people. I would not use the word retard when speaking to the parent of a mentally challenged child, but I have no problem calling some of the posters here retards.

Not using the word retard in that context is PC. It's a perfectly valid word, when used correctly. So are the words moron and imbecile: Moron psychology - Wikipedia the free encyclopedia

says the asshole that calls Down Syndrome kids "droolers" and calls for the death of the handicapped because they are "wastes of life"....

 

[ElmerMudd]

Much like the worldwide effort to rid the planet of smallpox, we each need to take on the effort to rid the world of Political Correctness so we can once again live in a world free of the PC Thought Police.

Enough already.

Be PC Free, be the change you want to see in the World

The opposite of political correctness is political wrongness and this Crusader Frank character appears to be all about political wrongness

Is conservative p.c. gunna ban gay marriage, ban gays from visiting businesses if their owner happens to be religious? Force the confederate flag to be maintained on state property with everyones tax dollars?

Conservative p.c. is out of fucking control.

Cant even counterpoint their p.o.v. without being accused of being a race baiter!!

Cant even hold a non conservative position on a topic without their p.c. police swooping in to label you an anti american traitor and intimidate you as some sort of turn coat

Conniebot p.c. is run rampant.

you think?

PC: Strategic hypersensitivity deployed specifically to put your target on the defensive and control the conversation.

It's transparent, it's intellectually dishonest and it's cowardly.
