Politically Correct

there is no room for a white average male

i agree with you nolan. there is a double standard.

if you watch TV in the USA, just about every commercial depicts a man as someone with absolutely zero common sense or ability and it takes a woman to straighten him out. action groups and clubs everywhere are able to bash men. if it was reversed, there would obviously be tons of drama.

Laws, like Title 9, enable women to compete in men's sports if there is not a women's team (if a high school has a men's team but not women's, they must have a women's or allow the women to compete with the me) , but men are still expressly forbidden from competing in women's sports or events. Best example of this is Golf.

There is just a level of hypocrisy in political correctness that everyone seems to just accept.

I am glad you pointed it out, because things like what you mentioned do bother me a bit.

Your blog has gotten better

hey 2content, that was a really nice perspective and quite what i was looking for.

thanks for that!

It's not a double standard. It's a combination of oppression, opportunity and economics. Most groups are not about oppressing the opposition but rather are fighting for rights/concepts that they've historically not had. Read books or even watch historical shows and see how they depict minorities/women 90 years ago. It's easy to forget how far we've come. It's easy to forget that if it was only up to religious/corporate America, we'd still be in the same fuck-hole while hearing how great they've made our lives.

On a related note, I've been disgusted by people such as papa john's CEO John Schnatter and Donald Trump. Donald trump has been treating Obama like a 21st century Jackie Robinson. John Schnatter has been treating ObamaCare like he's a victim of bad publicity in Upton Sinclair's, The Jungle. It's disgusting and they're on the wrong side of history.

I'm not sure I understand what you're trying to say Zep.

What isn't a double standard?

I find racism / sexism hilarious. It's basically a joke to me because i've never understood it. I've never understood what it's like to feel xenophobic.

i don't even know what it is.

Is it pointing out facts about a minority that was oppressed? Because whenever i do that people seem to think it's racist or sexist. Like once i pointed out to a Maori guy that 50% of the prison population is Maori, and he was like "that's racist". Anyway i thought to myself about how fucking retarded that was, 1) it's a fact. You can't argue with them. I make money from judgements all day. if i see a poker player who is chinese i'm gona sit and play with them lol.

I have what some people would be considered racist behavior, but i don't feel racist at all.

I use the word nigger on the internet like 5+ times a day, it's a funny word to me. Not sure why.

i guess i just find overly sensitive uneducated people truly pathetic to the point that it's comedy. I must seem like a mean person but whatever, that's me. I value facts and honesty so highly i don't care.

whats interesting about politicial correctness?

Everything about it is deeply retarded, nothing makes my blood boil more than watching stupid news casters say: "the F world". holy fucking shit, they treat you like a 6yo child, like you were unable to differentiate and recognize that context is what makes an insult not just the fucking pronunciation of a word.

pretty sure they do this for advertisers, FCC regulations, or [insert another reason]. so the next time they say "the F word" instead of "fuck", you can probably rest assured they aren't trying to make any implications about your intellect.

Of course they are, its just not the news caster that do, its the government/FCC, they are the ones treating its people like children and it pisses me off that people dont get enraged when its government patronizes them
