Where I live, there is no right to free speech, and polcor is indeed used as a means of control.
- Fairy penguins are clled "Little Penguins" so as not to alienate gays
- Terror suspects cannot be referred to by racial description.
- All the positive male terms such as "chairman" have been gender neutralised.
- Musical chairs is played with as many chairs as there are children so that there are no losers. Many other games have been similarly polcorized
- Teachers are told that they cannot say that a student has "failed" task because it might have negative impact on them.
- Songs such a "Baa Baa Black Sheep" have been polcorized to "Baa Baa Rainbow Sheep" to be racially inclusive!
- Many teachers of Australian History now refer to January 26th, 1788 as "Invasion Day" rather than settlement day
- Fallacious ideas such as the "Stolen Generations" in Australia are taught as facts without evidence. Even trying to point out the factual errors leads to one being labelled as racist.
Doesn’t this make polcor very disturbing and call into question the right mentality of its adherents?
Do you agree with this proposition?
Actually I do. Take; for instance, your mentioning of Baa Baa Black Sheep. All kids colored or otherwise know that sheep and be either black or white; it’s nature.
Policor’s only intention is to manipulate, but we’re not supposed to know that.
- Many teachers of Australian History now refer to January 26th, 1788 as "Invasion Day" rather than settlement day
Just read a bit about that, and it made no mention of the Aborigines getting all heated up, so no one invaded anything.
Policor is taking away the ability to confront a challenge when faced with one. – Musical chairs is played with as many chairs as there are children so that there are no losers. Many other games have been similarly polcorized
- Terror suspects cannot be referred to by racial description – But they are radicals.
Just my views.
So, shall it continue till we all unite, as one, and think the same way; somehow I don’t see myself doing that. I want to keep my freedom of expression – thank you very much.
We can all agree that political correctness can be taken too far, but where does "there is no right to free speech" come from? Do you live in Communist China or something?
