Now Seinfeld slams Political Correctness

[g5000]

While they are at it, they can stop and commiserate with Bill O'Reilly about the rigors of being in combat.

 

[Seawytch]

Comedy should punch up. You wouldn't have to worry about being "PC" if you punch up.

 

[Jarhead]

political correctness is everything that is anti-American. America stands for freedom and freedom is the ability to say as you please.

No, america started as a very "politically correct" prude fucking place .....

If you befriended a slave....oh noes taboo, taboo.

If you cussed, or looked at porn, or liked rock and roll, or.elvis gyrated his hips....taboo taboo taboo......sex was a no no to talk about.

All p.c.

No wearing hat at the table, its "offensive."

Political correctness is just a new sticker on an old as dirt meme of.busy bodies everywhere......cuz guys like mac need a label for their demons.


If this is new to america youre socially stunted. We are WAY looser today than ever before. Interacial couples arent "offensive" as they once were. "Gays" arent scary. Ooohh....noes. hes that f word? Disown him jethro!

Our nations backbone culture was engulfed in "pc" all along. Mac just cares now because he probably wants to say the n word. Boohoo

he happens to be 100% correct and was able to back it up.
Puritan of the days of old is PC of today.( I mean Puritan in the layman term...not the religious term)

However......

Back in the day, if one were not puritan, others may have frowned on them, but government did not get involved. Now, if one is politically incorrect, elected reps lead the cry for boycott, new laws, and investigations.

The government most certainly did get involved. Much more than now.

Comedy is a tool used by audiences as a way to be able laugh at themselves. It actually does more good than harm for people to see how silly their biases are...in my opinion.

All in the Family was not about agreeing with Archie Bunker. It was about laughing at how naïve he was. And trust me....many, myself included, saw some things we had to make adjustments on.

 

[Jarhead]

America 2015 is about 10% as pc as america 1950. America 1900. America 1850.

Etc.

true...but those who are not PC nowadays are more likely to be called on it than ever before.

It used to be "ignore the guy."

Now it is "investigate the guy, ruin him financially and run him out of town"

 

[g5000]

Wasn't too long ago that if a black man did the insanely politically incorrect thing of dating a white woman in the conservative Bible Belt, he'd have a lot of explaining to do. And sometimes he'd find his explanation made harder by having to do it while dangling from the end of a rope.

 

[g5000]

"Race Mixing Is Communism!" "Stop The Race Mixing March Of The Anti-Christ!"


Those silly godless PC liberals...

 

[g5000]

This guy is perfect. Just...perfect.

 

[mudwhistle]

This guy is perfect. Just...perfect.

He's what passed for a Democrat back in the 50s....

Probably been dead for 20 years.

 

[SwimExpert]

 

[Mac1958]

Comedy is a tool used by audiences as a way to be able laugh at themselves.

Yep.

Unfortunately, zealots take themselves very, very seriously.

Seinfeld sees it. Rock sees it. Maher sees it. Powers sees it.

Being "non-progressive" is now equivalent to the scarlet "A".

You must submit for your collective salvation or be damned and lose your NBA team.

 

[NYcarbineer]

I imagine the average college kid's reaction is,

Seinfeld? Oh yeah, he's that guy on that show Grandma watches all day.

 

[LoneLaugher]

Yep.

.

Again...Maher has no problem playing universities.

Powers? She sees what?

 

[NYcarbineer]

Seinfeld was dating a teenager when he was in his forties. Maybe he wants to do some politically incorrect jokes about that.

 

[RandallFlagg]

This guy is perfect. Just...perfect.

Sure that isn't you?

 

[NYcarbineer]

Well, the truth is a bitch, ain't it? Hell, you can't fart on a College campus these days without being labeled as "contributing to global warming" or some other communist bullshit.

Find a new hobby.

Wtf are you talking about?

It was ILLEGAL to marry interracially.
It was ILLEGAL to dance a certain way on tv.
Segregation was mandatory in schools.

Are you fffffffffffucking kidding me?

Sodomy.....was illegal.



Conservative really do have a warped rose colored glasses view of the past, which is why they are arrogant and stubborn in the face of corrective moral change. And no, i dont mean MANDATED moral change, you know? Like we actually DID used to do.

 

[Ravi]

And Chris Rock and Jerry Seinfeld are the ones supporting the political party that creates poltical correctness........

This is why what they said makes me hopeful. Along with Bill Maher and Kisten Powers.

These people are illiberal. They are the antithesis of what liberals used to be.

A distortion..

And, by the way, they always self-identify for me when I bring them up.

The nasty comments, the catty comments, the deflection - they raise their hand for me.

.

Mac....all of those people you named....maher, powers, rock and seinfeld.........they are going to vote for hilary.....where is the hope in that?

Constructive conversation can't take place as long as the zealots (on both ends) control the overall conversation.

My hope is that once they are marginalized, the adults can take over and begin trying to fix things.

PC is a big part of what needs to be marginalized.

.

Marginalizing others is a part of PC isn't it? That puts you in the same camp.

Yep.
