"It's not PC when it doesn't fit my narrative that it's all the fault of out-of-control SJW tumblr virtue-signalers!"


No, they're not PC issues when they're not PC issues. Everything you randomly complain about isn't an actual PC issue and the fact that you're clueless about PC -- because you weren't even born when it first became a big thing -- doesn't change that.

Also not a PC issue. Not everything that's fucked up in the world comes from PC culture.

The statues and flags of traitors shouldn't be displayed, except in a museum.


We live in a country founded by treason where our greatest heroes were the greatest traitors. Further, we have monuments to Native Americans who raised up arms and attacked the US government. At least with many "Civil" War (technically it was a war of secession, so even the moniker is misleading) heroes, they *had* distinguished themselves in military service against other nations. Many of the Native Americans commemorated only ever fought the US government. Why aren't you voicing any outrage about them?

What does any of this have to do with PC culture now?


People just be using PC as a catch-all for anything they dislike. When something sucks, Chewy is all like, "That's so PC!"

The people who complain about "PC outrage" are just as much, if not more, of little bitches than the people they complain about. We're talking about people who think the "War on Christmas" is real

modern "political correctness" isn't just about whining and complaining, people lose their jobs and have their lives ruined over stupidly trivial things.


Pretty much this.

But my point here is they are already blaming tumblr people/this perceived modern "PC culture" for things that have been around for decades. Just because they are wrong doesn't mean they can't or won't do it.


lolwut? People on the board usually aren't talking about PC culture, they're talking about SJWs and other shit. And while PC culture has been around, it's changed a metric fuckload over the years as the cult of PC has found new ways to torture the English language #FascismPretendingToBeManners
