yes, like about the middle east. i find it offending because they say the most untrue, ridiculous things its no wonder why people are racist against us. by reading that crap im like "damn..id totally be racist against us too....what the hell is this?! all lies" i mean you cant say N**er, ne*ro, etc. because black people get offended. my white friends wont even say the words "black people" they say African-American. I mean come on you cant overly protect a race and then neglect the others! I understand its to avoid racism, but there ARE other groups now who are experiencing the same things. I mean EVERYWHERE I GO i get stopped by random people asking me offensive questions or yelling rude racist things. Also how come you can call a white man a gringo, a cracker, etc. and it will be ok?? doesnt it bother them? and then if they say something back, they are racist??

Political correctness is a lie and softens a specific truth. It tends to make truth a bit anemic by taking off the sharp edges of fact.
Therefore, political incorrectness tends to be a simple statement of fact.
For example, when Hardaway said he hated homosexuals I knew his opinion, and I appreciate his honesty. I disagree with his opinion, but I know where he stands; he was transparent and honest. If your not honest about your feeling your a coward or a politician. I don't want to be called either.

Being politically incorrect is different than being a racist/bigoted/hate-mongering/ or chauvinist asshole.
Political correctness has nothing to do with your opinion or attitude or how you really feel, it's mostly about talking in a way that won't offend anyone.
I just think it's funny when it gets to the point where you say things like "occupationally challenged" rather than brokeass welfare case.

None, it's political correctness that angers me.
Eejits telling me I can't fly mmy own national flag in my own country to avoid offending people who don't care whether or not I fly it in the first place.
The one that gets me most is the fact we now have to hide the fact this is England and guess what (I know this may be a shock to some) you actually get ENGLISH people in England. I think it's awful we're told our country is so great because everyone wants to come here, then told to cover up the fact we're from this supposedly great nation because those who want to come here don't want to be reminded they're here.
Ludicrous.

I'm pro-political incorrectness. To hell with the polite, nice people. Let's all be real about life and call a spade a spade.

It is a form of positive discrimination, which also makes me angry. You cannot allow one group of society to have unreasonable protection when at the same time disregard the rights of another group, if they were subjected to the same treatment.
It has to be either illegal for all subjects or not illegal at all. This present positive discrimination just fosters resentment.

All of it! It is Orwellian Big Brother and does nothing but build up simmering hatred. No wonder our country is in a mess. Those who advocate all that is PC are traitors to our people.

Being told what to think, how to think, how to express oneself, the politically correct kind of Orwellian thought crime that has become a fact of life.
