Shiny Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 What is your view on 'PC". I personally find it an insult to our intelligence and freedom of speech and will. I also find it funny how Political Correctness changes over the years. So what do you believe about it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redhaloguy Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 Since I don't know what the [bleep] Political Correctness means I'll have to get back to you on that. Edit: So being right about the world? Like not eating babies is ok? Something along those lines is what Google gave me. If you do things right people won't be sure you've done anything at all.

dragoonson Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 Sometimes,I don't give a damn that there's less black used on text than white,and that shows that we're exercising white supremacy.But sometimes I point that out to people and laugh at the resulting argument. so i herd u liek devarts?If you look at me and feel offended by my 666-ism,think.I could be just as offended by your "cross".[hide=This's why I'm hot]The Eleventh Commandment:Thou Shalst only say "Amen,brother".Amen, brother :lol:Amen, brudda (referring to the 10th commandment)amen Bruder!

RpgGamer Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 People need to get over themselves. I can't call a an "african american" black because some guy somewhere said he was deeply offended by it. you're black...that's how it's always been I can't call an Asian 'Oriental'. But they have no problem calling themselves that. As i remember "Oriental" means "mystic" why does this piss people off? I can't call 'freedom fries' , 'french fries'. They're damn french fries. I don't care who is trying to nuke us. I can't call a Peruvian "Mexican". But if you're from Africa...no one is going to bother differenciating Liberian from Nigerian. You are what you are. All stereo types have some truth to them. get over yourselves. we're all human. Quote Quote Anyone who likes tacos is incapable of logic. Anyone who likes logic is incapable of tacos.

Nom Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 I can't call a Peruvian "Mexican". But if you're from Africa...no one is going to bother differenciating Liberian from Nigerian. Peru and Mexico are separate countries. Nigeria and Liberia are countries located on the continent of Africa. So they're both Africans. Peruvians aren't Mexicans ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peru and Mexico are separate countries. Nigeria and Liberia are countries located on the continent of Africa. So they're both Africans. Peruvians aren't Mexicans ;) That's my point. If you see anyone from south america here on the East Coast, you label them "mexican" (no matter where they are from). They do not like this. But the Africans do not complain when you say they are "African" even if they are from rival tribe nations. I confused myself in my own explaination...

Dizzle229 Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 When I was a boy scout about 2 years ago we had to cancel our night of sketch comedy because the head guy thought that the sketches were "not politically correct." One was a Spongebob thing that had us one by one walk up to a person and say "Sandy, can I have a glass of water?" He would say no, and the person would fall. It kept going until we were all dead on the ground. It sounds just random the way I put it, there was more to it than that, but I can't remember. Anyway, it got taken out because "that's not nice, there are people in the world who really don't have water." :roll: Get back here so I can rub your butt.

Range_This11 Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 Being Politically Correct is a great thing to an extent. There are times where it does offend someone and just because your particular race hasn't been discriminated against for hundreds of year and you're not offended, doesn't mean someone else won't be. It's called having decency and not being an insensitive jerk. I do agree that sometimes it gets out of hand, but for the most part, it's a good thing.

i_love_burritos Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 This disease not to offend someone at, another person's greater expense has gone too far. I do agree during some instances where it's a particularly sensitive topic, it is required. Where are the people gone ? That say, "I don't agree with what your saying, but I'll defend your right to say it anyway." Hope they are gone for good. (||) /||\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IGoddessI Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 If something is ridiculously incorrect, political correctness is your friend. If it's something tedious, who gives a crap. The only people who tell you that you can't do something are those who have already given up on their own dreams so feel the need to discourage yours.
