Quote:That's just it.  There is no end. It's an endless list of things they find offensive.  At some point, they're going to force a new amendment to the Constitution down our throats saying it is a right to NOT be offended.  Political correctness has paralyzed many for fear they'll be labeled by the bullies on the left.  For them, political correctness is an industry with an unlimited number of targets. 

 

As an example, if the Confederate flag bothers you, fight to have it removed from public display.  Before that battle is done, fight to have the monuments honoring the Confederacy dismantled.  Before that battle has completed, demand dead Confederates who are buried in some of these memorials be dug up and removed from public view.  If a celebrity happens to have been photographed with a Confederate flag, bash him and demand an apology.  If he happens to own an iconic car from a television series, badger  him into submission to have the flag removed.  Force a TV network to stop showing syndicated re-runs of the same show even though there isn't the slightest thing racist about it.  See how things snowball just because of political correctness?

 

Political correctness cascades from liberals more freely than water does from Niagara Falls, and with more punishment. 

 

Oppose the president?  You're a racist. 

 

Support traditional marriage?  You're a homophobe. 

 

Question whether #BlackLivesMatter or just black lives snuffed out by whites?  You're a racist. 

 

You think that while alternative fuel resources are a great idea that we should continue to pursue to do it more in a more affordable manner, cheap, readily available energy resources should still be the primary focus in our energy strategy, you're accused of wanting to destroy the planet. 

 

Disagree with the idea that global warming climate change is all man's fault, and you're labeled a flat earth person.

 

Speak up for border control and enforcement related to illegal aliens?  You're a racist. 

 

You've got successful comedians who are at the top of the industry who refuse to perform on college campuses because political correctness has made it impossible to tell a joke without creating some sort of controversy.

 

You won't bake a cake for a gay wedding for religious beliefs, and not only are you a homophobe, but you must be sued into bankruptcy and forced to close your business too.

 

They've got the golden ticket to bully and intimidate anyone into submission, and a list of targets that could and will go on for decades.  No matter the issue, if they embrace the cause, anyone who opposes them will get the full power of political correctness brought down upon them, and it's okay for them to do so because they're well intentioned liberals. 

 

It's funny.  Those who claim to be the most tolerant?  They wind up being the least.

 

The thing is, in history what has happened when such thinking is made the "law of the land"?  North Korea anyone?

 

Look even closer into our own country's history.  Are we turning into the FLDS on a national level?  Perhaps, only by a different "religion" (or non-religion).  We are being told what to say, what to do and what to think.  History is being "re-written" and any evidence of our history is being taken away.
