The Hidden Dangers of Political Correctness

I have to quote what Marc Faber wrote because it's very well said:

 The Hidden Dangers of Political Correctness

"First, I shall discuss Political Correctness. In 1948, Norman M. Thomas, Leader of the US Socialist Party opined that “The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism, but under the name of 'liberalism', they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program until one day America will be a socialist nation without knowing it happened.”

Political Correctness (PC) is the outcome of a distinctive 'turn' in Leftist politics, which became obvious in the mid-1960s. PC is a subjective list put together by the few to rule the many - a list of things one must think, say, or do. It affronts the right of the individual to establish his or her own beliefs. In the 20th century, the contemporary use of the phrase “Politically Correctness” dates from the dogmatic application of Stalinist doctrine, debated between formal Communists and Socialists, during the middle of the 20th century. Peter Drucker noted that, until recently, only Nazis and Stalinists spoke of “political correctness.” It is indeed a purely totalitarian concept. It asserts the fight of those in power to suppress all but the party line's official lies."

Trying to control what another human-being is saying or thinking is the world of this book.


That Is a World That I Refuse to Live In

That book is the one we read in high school, and are taught... (for good reason,) is the epitome of evil. It tells of a world that we should despise... and if being implemented, one we should fight against.

I Completely Agree With That

Any person who seeks to regulate what another human-being is thinking or saying, or how that human-being is acting...  especially if the human-being is on their property, in their house, and they are not physically harming anyone else --- is a person that is described quite well in this book.

They are seeking to deprive a human-being of an environment that is conducive to the pursuit of happiness and flourishing. To suppress it. To hamper it. To destroy it.

If this is your idea of freedom --- and you are trying to impose it on other human-beings, I don't want to be a part of it.
