What is Political correctness?

Can be considered pejorative. noun, A term used earliest by American conservatives to neutralize discussions on prejudice in the United States. Used to imply political rights are being taken away from the speaker by the target. Target is implied to be an authoritarian no matter whether or not any actual rights are abridged, thusly most occurrences of the term are used in straw man arguments.

A: You dirty wop.
B: Hey, you're racist!
A: That's political correctness! You're trying to take away my 1st Amendment rights!
B: You're dumb. I'm calling you out, that's all.

Political correctness - what is it?

a) The Quality of being both political and correct but where it is bad for some reason

b) This ongoing campaign by liberals but which no liberal remembers ever joining where words are systematically avoided or replaced in such away as not to marginalize anyone and progress discourse just like all ideologues everywhere do yet somehow that is bad and unique to liberals.

Probably just a blanket term invented by reactionaries which allows them to sound ironic and counter-Orwellian when really they are nominalizing all liberal thought in an attempt to homogenize it, discredit what could be fairly reasonable points by grouping it in with silly points and side-stepping the the responsibility to actually examine any terminology they find problematic on a case by case basis.

I kind of like political correctness because the alternative is being in the wrong. Clue is in the name.

What does "Political correctness" mean?

A way of censorship and judgment by following what the society establishs it's right or wrong, without giving the events, the ideas or the decisions that are being judged the depth it deserves. Political correctness is most of the time related with left ideologies, but it depends on the country and the subject. In America for example, people use to care more about black people than women, ergo, most of the time, political correctness with black people issues more than women issues. In the other hand, in Mexico people use to care more about women issues than indian community issues, so political correctness is applied to women issues and not to indian issues. Also, an overlooked aspect of political correctness is that, in some cases, it's applied in a way that people don't realise about it, given to the fact that political correctness is only associeted with left ideologies. I'll give some examples of political correctness being used by the liberal part of the population and the conservative> part of the population.

β€œMary got laid with more than 30 men and she's only 23, what a whore!”, this is an example of political correctness by conservative people.

β€œIn this new book by Marty R. Jefferson, three black men steal a liquor store and kill the owner, it's such an offense to black people by using such a racist stereotype.” this is an example of political correctness by liberal people.

β€œHeard Liv is a feminist now, so sad, now she spents her days yelling nonsense at rallies, she's only looking for a good fuck.”

β€œHave you seen Joker already? My god what an awful movie. The main character, Arthur, is such an incel!”

Political correctness

Mealy-mouthed attempt at getting people to avoid superficial expressions of bigotry, which ends up debasing the language without dealing with the stupidity underlying most hates and fears. Merely ends up giving the bigots one more thing to snarl at and, yes, it really can impose a tyranny of its own. Many examples of allegedly common politically correct speech are urban myths ... which we could still have done without.

Some (real and imaginary) examples of political correctness:

You're not black (in the USA), you're African-American.
(As Whoopi Goldberg once commented, and I may be paraphrasing, "My ancestors didn't come through generations of the slave trade and the Civil Rights movement to end up hyphenated.")

You're not crippled, you're differently abled.

You're not a member of the Undead, you are biometrically challenged.

You're not an android, you are an artificial person.

Political correctness

A bunch left wing, communist bullshit, implemented by the left in a shitfucked attempt to control what others say. A typical advocate of "PC" is identified by the following characteristics.
1. The inability to think for themselves.

2. The inability to speak for themsleves.

3. The gross inabilty to let anyone else express a differing point of view without shouting "You can't say that!" You can't say that"! like some idiotic communist parrot.

4. The use of meaningless 20 syllable words in a vain attempt to sound "educated" when a 3 syllable word word would work perfectly.

5. Numerous bruises and scars, as a result of being told to Fuck Off and getting punched out by the targets of thier Speech Police tactics.

PC: coffee without milk
Normal: Black Coffee

PC:Gay
Normal: Fag, canoe licker, rump Ranger, Ass pirate.

PC:Economically challeneged
Normal: Dirt fucking poor

PC: intellectually challenged
Normal: Stupid

These are but a few examples of the idiocy of political correctness
