We have been making light of “political correctness” for several years now. “PC” has become a running joke in America, except it is not really funny because of what it represents.
Political Correctness influences the way American’s talk, the way we look at others, and the guilt we feel for not thinking the way we should about issues and other people. It is now a part of our daily lives. The ignorant use political correctness as a sword to level the intellectual playing field by folks who would otherwise be seen as irrational.
But where does Political Correctness come from? As a Soviet area expert, I know the answer to that - it is part of the communist doctrine. In a place where everything is morally equal and religion does not exist, the test of one’s fervor for the cause of the common worker is his/her level of political purity as it corresponds to the communist doctrine.
Let me share with you two examples of communism, which might otherwise not be recognized as such.
This one in England is a great example of the stupidity that exists in Europe today.
Does your three yeard-old turn up her nose at Salsa. Does she give the poochy lip when you put that Curry Vindaloo in front of her?
You’d better keep a close eye on her. According to British authorities, she just might be a racist!
The National Children’s Bureau, which receives £12 million a year, mainly from Government funded organisations, has issued guidance to play leaders and nursery teachers advising them to be alert for racist incidents among youngsters in their care.
This could include a child of as young as three who says “yuk” in response to being served unfamiliar foreign food…
The guide goes on to warn that children might also “react negatively to a culinary tradition other than their own by saying ‘yuk’”.
According to the guide, you should condemn your child directly and specifically.
This other example is a little closer to home and is an example of how an ignorant racist gets to play the victim because of the stereotype that all white people are racist, so anything they say can be construed as a racist remark.
Yesterday things got tense at a meeting of the Dallas County Commissioners. A Dallas Morning News City Hall blogger picks up the scene:
Commissioner Kenneth Mayfield, who is white, said it seemed that central collections “has become a black hole” because paperwork reportedly has become lost in the office.
Commissioner John Wiley Price, who is black, interrupted him with a loud “Excuse me!” He then corrected his colleague, saying the office has become a “white hole.”
That prompted Judge Thomas Jones, who is black, to demand an apology from Mayfield for his racially insensitive analogy.
Score two for the Idiot-American community.
Score two for Communism. Mr Mayfield’s political health is not in synch with what those who want to control what we think and say find acceptable. Mr. Mayfield is guilty of being an individual. In this spirit, I propose the following:
Black Hole - as this seems to be highly offensive, we should change this to: Large cosmic vacuum with no traits of color whatsoever
White Noise is now: That annoying hissing sound, which can also be calming from time to time
Black Box is now the orange box, since it is not black anyway. You see how condescending we are? We blame plane crashes on people of a different ethnicity!
Chicago White Sox should be renamed to Ethyl Merman. While this is probably still not politically correct, it is kind of funny.
Redline - this is a blatantly racist remark and should now be called “the end”.
Yellow Brick Road - Damn their eyes, they just keep on pushing don’t they? This is now to be referred to as “the place to go any time you want something you already have”
I do not mean to make light of the racial problems we have in the US. I simply want people to understand how ridiculous the issue has become when an utter moron, who is supposed to be a community leader, can get an apology -demanded by a judge no less - from someone saying, “we send paperwork into a place and it never comes out. Just like sending it into a black hole.” Yet, Mr. Mayfield did not get an apology for the racially charged response of “white hole” and I doubt Mr. Mayfield would have asked for one. When did ignorance become a weapon or is it simply an excuse for Communistic PC?
