It's About Bloody Time

Not sure of why you included that last bit... perhaps you could elaborate.  Are you implying that political correctness is a phenomenon born purely out of neo-Marxist theory?  I would suggest otherwise.  I would also suggest that not all forms of political correctness are created equal.  There are some shifts in that direction that I find it difficult to argue with.  Others may be a bit extreme.  That the notion itself has become a political whipping boy strikes me as pure, generalizing, propagandism.

OK, fair enough, it is not a Marxian plot, per se. It is a form of censorship intended to control the language of public debate, which I see as a violation of the spirit of the First Amendment. I don't give a crap what it does to other countries, I care how it soils mine.

PC chose its own name, for better and for worse. It is also based on lying, obfuscating, and obscuring the truth. Simple example: garbage man, not sanitation engineer. Short, not vertically challenged. Euphamism is rooted in the Greek word for lie or falsehood.
