Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.

Is there something you'd like to discuss, or were you just using a public space for a soapbox?

Sounds like Magical Dimensions plagerized that comment and like the rest of us has no idea what it means.

That was submitted to a contest for current definitions of terms. The only name I found associated with it in search is Alan Peters or Peter Alan, one of the two I forgot.

Maybe, maybe not, I don't know.

I found some page from February, 2010, claiming that this was submitted to a contest earlier this year, but I also find the same quote on several web pages dating back to at least 2004.
Make America Great Again! - Trump in 2020 ... "We're a capitalistic society. I go into business, I don't make it, I go bankrupt. They're not going to bail me out. I've been on welfare and food stamps. Did anyone help me? No." - Craig T. Nelson, actor.

Political Correctness

A means of taking away freedom.

It will soon be Political Incorrect not to carry the little red book of the Great Leader Chairman Mao. Not being able to quote it on demand word perfect will result in an on the spot plastic bag being put over the offenders head until dead. Which will be enforced by the good citizens. Not to mention other forms of Political Correctness that must be followed.

By order of Pol Pot, Stalin, Hitler and the rest of the gang.
If there is a single truth about Magic, it is that nothing on earth so efficiently evades it.

There is no debate about Political Correctness you are told what is expected and that is that.

It is certainly not PC for Magical Dimmensions to post someone else's writing without at least saying it was a quote if not specifically giving credit where credit was due. Kinda makes you wonder if that ethic is also present in his magic.

I think the doctrine is based on the premise that niceness is a higher principle than truth.

Political correctness is a doctrine? Get serious.

Political correctness is is a term of abuse. i.e. to call something "politically correct" is to call it small minded or hypocritical.

But above all, those who rail against political correctness are usually attempting to cover up their own prejudice.

Interesting. Disagree, but interesting. In fact, I disagree to the point of "Get serious" myself, with respect to "small minded," "hypocritical," and "usually attempting to cover up their own prejudice." But still...interesting.
