Samples from the politically correct dictionary, so you know what people mean when they talk and it seems totally alien.

A

Action - by adding “action” to plan or an organization name we must be doing something. [am I?]

Agenda - describes any collection of policies: ‘equality agenda’ for instance. Invariably needs to be ‘taken forward’.

Aggressive outreach - the process of actively soliciting trade for social workers. Generally employed when ‘customers’ fail to show required enthusiasm for services on offer.

Algorerythyms - The ability to turn a 5 inch more than normal sea level rise into 20 feet in spite of all evidence to the contrary, caused by keeping the AC turned too low.

B

Beacon of excellence - archaism: any organ of state that achieved - or ‘delivered’ - what it was actually supposed to.

Best practice - normally ‘established’ when a Lefty wants to saddle a process with more complexity. Replaces ‘working it out yourself’.

Bigoted - used to describe those who refuse to view all lifestyles, religions, cultures and deviances as equally valid.

Bilingual - someone who gets more money because they can speak a 2 languages. One of which no one they work with will care about.

Is the phrase ....."THEY CAN FUCK OFF" politically correct if i add please to it?

   

Only if you say it with a smile

   

please

   

I'm probably not qualified to answer that,

who is "they" for starters, are they 'victims' some other group?



I don't ever remember hearing someone got drawn in front of a human rights tribunal for saying fuck off.



say it to the wrong minority group big problem even with please,


say it to Bush no problem with or without please.

   

"they" is whom ever you chose they to be Bush is a start

   

A dictionary of political correctness is an interesting topic. It speaks to the idealogues out there but also the incompetence in government.

   

Well Bush is a white male and worse an American one so it's politically correct to say whatever you want about him.

It sez it in there.

Now if he was a woman or minority you would be going the way of Imus.

   

One of the most significant bits of politically correct language in Canada at this time is the prohibition to talk about internal migration to jobs. Politicians are under the gun to say the local economy in the regions is a concern and that of course young people have the right or should have to live and work in the region they were brought up in. In fact they don't, all the opportunity is in the growth cities. And in fact people love to move around. This is a pressing social issue as there are millions of people in the regions that need employment or better employment. The whole topic of the third world conditions that aboriginals live in on reserves is related to this issue of moving to the city, although you will not hear or read about it in a million artilcles and speeches.

   

A related topic to politcal correctness is the real world of personal philosophy. Despite rather expensive attempts at educating people the masses still think in catagories that are cliches. Capitalism is corrupt is a prime one. However no one articulates these, it'd require a Shakespeare to do so. I think anyone that could speak to peoples philosophy would be a national asset, even a personal gold mine.

The poisonous language of a columnist by the name of Mark Steyn…

Lewis H Lapham

Harper’s (United States)



This column of bigotry, homophobia and racism... typical of the slick, degrading, immoral rubbish which is being propounded every Monday in that newspaper. It is an example of the degraded level to which we are falling.

Michael D Higgins, TD for Galway West
speaking in the Irish Parliament



Someone apparently lost control of the steering wheel and included a strange screed by a Mark Steyn, who is billed as a columnist for Britain’s Daily Telegraph. The National Review should be ashamed of itself.

William German

The San Francisco Chronicle



If Steyn is even remotely right in his predictions, two bad things will happen. First, he will become even more insufferable than he is now…

Pretty funny quotes biopiracy. I am always hearing about Mark Stein but I do not know who he is. I will watch out for him.

   

Political correctness doesn't make me happy,





The funnyiest thing about the quotes is they are on Marks website, can you imagine a lefty doing that? I cant,

In Canada he writes for Macleans and the Western Standard, he also writes in 5-7 other countries depending.

Most terrorists seem like bumbling losers if they're caught before the act: That's certainly true of the Fort Dix jihadists who took their terrorist training DVD to the local audio store to be copied. It was also true of the Islamists arrested in Toronto last year for plotting to behead the prime minister, one of whose cell members had a bride who wanted him to sign a prenup committing him to jihad. The Heathrow plotters arrested while planning to blow up U.S.-bound airliners included a Muslim convert who'd started out as the son of a British Conservative Party official with a P. G. Wodehouse double-barreled name and a sister who was a Victoria's Secret model and ex-wife of tennis champ Yanick Noah.

But then Mohammed Atta and the 9/11 gang would have seemed pretty funny if you'd run into them in that lap-dance club they went to before the big day where the girls remembered them only as very small tippers. Most terrorists are jokes until the bomb goes off.

So, when we're fortunate enough to catch them in advance, it's worth pausing to consider what they tell us about the broader threat we face. According to genius New York Times headline writers, "Religion Guided Three Held In Fort Dix Plot." You don't say. Any religion in particular?

The rest is here.
