Dave Posted August 19, 2003 Share Posted August 19, 2003 Are people this dumb? Oh, never mind, that's a stupid question; of course they are! Those who are into political correctness are no different from those in the ACLU (or who at least sympathize with them). They're often one and the same anyway!

FreeSoul Posted August 19, 2003 Share Posted August 19, 2003 I don't think all political correctness is bad.....as long as people recognize that a large part of it is in promotion of self-determination and self-identification. Otherwise, Catholics can just be known as the self-flagellating, self-denying, people who hate enjoying anything. Oh wait, that might be true. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kilroy the Ninja Posted August 19, 2003 Share Posted August 19, 2003 I'd venture to say that there is less than 1% of PC-ness that isn't bad. And that's a conservative number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Michael Posted August 19, 2003 Share Posted August 19, 2003 How in blazes did "senior citizen" get to be a demeaning term???? Wasn't THAT originally a PC term that was conceived to replace more demeaning names for people in old age? I think this proves my point that it's not what you say, it's how you say it. I guess once enough people use the phrase "senior citizen" in a derogatory tone, it's considered to be an impolite phrase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
