The TB Non-PC club!

Sign in to disble this ad
It seems there is no club for the non-politically-correct crowd, so I'm starting it- being the non-PC guy that I am. Anyone else here sick of the PC-ness that has infected this world like some sort of alien flu? Also, what ticks you off in PC-ness? One of my pet peeves is hyphenated-American. To me, you are either American, or not.

I think being politically correct has great intentions, but its execution is absolutely miserable. It has gone too far.

While I have tact and a respect towards the feelings of those more sensitive than myself, I often times find myself in situations where I feel no need whatsoever to "exercise" said qualities.

I'm definitely in for this one.

I too thought this was about computers, which makes me kind of sad

but I agree. Political correctness blows for lack of a better quip.

Finally, a topic I can really get into!

Boo hiss to PC!

Thats to all you swine out there who want to abolish christmas and the like!

I am not selfish or inconciderate, but if we go to any other country they dont go "ooh, the English are comming, quick dont do express a belief or idea as they might get upset". So why do we go "ohh, a foreigner, lets disreguard everything we believe and stand for to make them happy". If they wernt happy they would go back home! (cept refugees of course, but we dont get loads of those here)

I have no problem with foreigners, but its the dumbasses here in England who take it way WAY to far. You are polite to the guest, but the guest is not more important than those who live here. The PC-Freaks trample on us so they can make someone who doesnt even care in what we believe in anyway happy!? Why?

Edit: I just got out of bed cos I thought of this. We put down our own national religion (christianity --> christmas) for the sake of those who dont even live here! This particlarly sucks if you are a christian, like I am. "Christmas lights might offend others", "no you cant put a christmas tree or decorations in a government building"

So we are being oppressed in a free country for the sake of offending people who mostly (thres always a few though) that dont give two hoots.

I don't have time to explain myself. I'm too busy offending people.
