Some choice words to describe 'political correctness': "Really...REALLY.....GAAAAAAAY!"
This is a movement I really HATE! Not because of it's cause. Oh, no! I believe the cause for telling people it's wrong to call somebody by a derogatory term is a VERY good thing. It serves as a check for the incredibly racist. The problem lies in the fact that the movement has stretched WAAAAAAAY too far!
One thing that really irks me during the Yule-time season is that change to "Happy Holidays"! What the fuck is that all about? Maybe I'd feel differently if I was apart of that 1% that DOESN'T celebrate Christmas, but I think it's crap that we try to appease the minority at the expense of the majority's tradition. The biggest arguement for the minority in this situation is the media is pushing their religious beliefs on them.
R-religous beliefs!?!
Take a good gander at American society today? Are we religious? Is Christmas about Baby Jesus, the miracle, and mangers in the middle of the fucking desert? NO! It's about BUYING CRAP NOBODY NEEDS! That's what Christmas is today! So, if you try the 'pushing of beliefs' thing, you're obviously an anti-capitalistic commie. If so, GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY COUNTRY, RED!
Another one that gets me is "Hyphenated Americans". Now, Teddy Roosevelt himself said these were bad to have. Of course, this was in a time of imperialism in Europe and having _____-Americans living right next door to us, claiming allegiance to both countries, scared the daylights out of us. Let me give an example: African-Americans. Remember back in the early 1800, we had the American Colonization Society? No? Well, we did. Their aim was to ship free slaves back to Africa. You know why it didn't work?
THEY WEREN'T AFRICAN!!!
Most hyphenated Americans are born on American soil. You kinda lose the allegiance when you have very little to do with the culture. The color-coded system was much easier. Black, white, red, yellow, brown. Here's the thing: Americans understand colors. That's why red means stop, green means go, and yellow means elevated on the "The Terrorists Are Gonna Kill Us" Scale.
Now, I know saying the n-word is bad. Heck, it's so bad, I don't even want to type it out! I'm not saying we go back to that. What I'm saying is that we need to stop before this gets out of hand and we continue trends like what we do for deaf people. Apparently, deaf people didn't mind being called deaf, but then somebody said we need to start calling them "hearing-impaired". Deaf people got pissy, used sign language to tell each other how pissed off they were, and now some are reffered to as "hard-of-hearing". NOW they are getting pissy about that!
FUCK YOU, DEAF PEOPLE!!! You are deaf! African-Americans are black, the holidays are Christmas and Hanukkah SEPARATE, and Kristie Alley in those Pier 1 commercials is FAT!
