On another Thread, A Ultra-Liberal, basically says, PC, is OK. PC is Great ! And it has made, ’society’, better and more ‘polite’. And he sees Nothing Wrong with it !
(I Believe). Polite, has Nothing to do with being PC. Nothing. Polite is Polite. Polite, is, using the correct words, for the correct situation, within a group of particular people.
Now first, you have to, ‘look back’, and remember, where and when, You learned the words, Sh**, Fu**, A** Hole, Son of a Bit**, etc.. The, ’swear words’. Bet most, MOST, Never, learned them from Parents, or Teachers. You learned them from, (perhaps) older siblings, or, friends, or the, ’street’. You, learned what they meant, and used them on rare occasions. And NEVER, in, “Polite”, conservation !
Now, you are 5 +/- years old, and are learning what, ‘Lier’, ‘Thief’, ‘Cold Blooded Murder” is, ….. (Think I was 10-12 or so, before I learned the word, ‘Rubber’, could mean something other than a thing you put over your shoes to keep the water/snow, out) You have learned, (though some above stated source), those are, ‘Bad’ Things/Words ! And certainly, you do not want to do, ‘Bad’, things.
But when you are caught, taking a candy bar from a ‘mart-mart’, you called a: ‘moral entrepreneur’, or, ‘ethically challenged’, you think, (remember you are 5 +/-), “…gee, that’s not so bad, at least I am not a, ‘THIEF’.”… So now, what have you learned?
Yes Yes Yes, for the, (panty in a bunch crowd), A 5 +/- year old, probably does NOT, understand, taking that candy bar is, ’theft’. Yet, they have learned what the word, (or are on their way to), what, THEFT, means. And guess what, NONE of the grown ups, call them a, ’THIEF’. They all say you are something, 'not bad’, in your mind. Now, what have you learned?
You gonna, ’TEACH” them: “Keep Doing That”, or, “Don’t Do That” ?
A Generation and 1/2, have, ‘learned’, ‘moral entrepreneur’, or, ‘ethically challenged are Not, ‘BAD’, things. like, ’STEELING and THEFT’, would be. So, later in life, one ’Steels’, a car. “Na Not a THIEF, just, 'ethically challenged’. One takes a, ‘BRIBE’. Na, NOT a, ’Thief’, just a, ‘moral entrepreneur’. !
What if, (again remember, you are 5 +/-), you are called a, THIEF , for something you did. (and you have learned what, ’thief’ is). NOW, what have you ‘learned’ ?
So, taking money/things, from Taxpayers, and ‘exchanging’, it for a ‘donation’, to your private fund. Is: “THEFT” !
Stating a ‘opinion, and distorting the Facts,’, on a subject, (Like CNN & Like, Media), Is” ‘LYING” !
Etc Etc Etc. PC, in your face !
