Re: BLM, Wall Street
Just wondering about the good PC versus the bad PC...there certainly are both kinds, along with PCs in between.
No, that is not true. I guess only conservatives really know what PC is, liberals make it up to suit themselves. But PC is a specific way of thinking that originated in Cultural Marxism, that labels conservative opinion as racist, homophobic, Islamophobic and similar things to discredit their opinions by guilt, and shut them up.
A perfect example Right-Wing PC (RWPC) or Fundamentalist PC (FPC). You use PC as the absolute, most derogatory, label you can put on anyone who disagrees with you and if you can add Marxist or communist to the label, to demean your opponent, so much the better.
You are using the PC label in exactly the same way you moan about your opponents using racist, homophobic, Islamophobic labels. Some people find your brand of PC to discredit their opinions by guilt and shut them up, pretty unpalatable.
Some of us find the views you express here at EvC on every subject to be nothing more than Right-Wing Fundamentalist PC.

Re: leftist revisionism as usual
Well, I should have known better.
Your muddled view of history is one of the most bizarre things I have ever read.
Calling someone who disagrees with you a Marxist or a communist is what I would expect from you though, considering that you are the self-proclaimed only true Christian on the planet, ever.
Fuck Marx and Marxism and fuck communism. They are stupid ideas that failed to work as organizing principles for human societies.
Your name calling of your opponents is exactly Right-Wing Fundamentalist Political Correctness and you know it Faith.
You are PC Faith. We all know it so you might as well own it.

Re: leftist revisionism as usual
Funny how ANGRY you are at the thought that there really is a living breathing Marxism that produced the real PC and is still operating to influence leftist opinion. Sorry, PC is leftist, try as you might to pin it on me. I've given a smidgen of the evidence for that, are you simply ignoring it?
Well, what someone said a long time ago does not change the fact that language evolves. You sling PC around as an insult to anyone who disagrees with you and we can see that you are yourself a perfect example of RWFPC.
Roman Catholics invented Christianity and no matter how hard you try you to deny it you are a Catholic. And we know the Catholics were major supporters of Hitler. We know your heart Faith, Catholic to the core. Christianity and Catholic mean the same thing.

Re: Stereotypical PC Pathetic Liberal Behavior
On a lot of issues progs have given up arguing the issues and used a weaponized version of PC to shut down the opposition and all discussion of those issues.
If you don't see this, I guess fish don't see the water in which they swim. For others it is glaringly obvious.
Yeah, I have seen that and I've watched the cons do their own version of it.
Swiftboating......tell a lie over and over from their bully pulpit and it becomes the truth. Hannity, Limbaugh, Beck have perfected the technique.

THAT's political correctness, a body of fixed opinion nobody is allowed to contradict on pain of getting at least a tongue lashing, even though it's usually a ridiculous fiction, and generally it's in the service of some notion of political unfairness or inequality or wounded self-esteem for some "victim" group.
That's what I said - and that's what you do all the time, except that your ridiculous fictions are right-wing nuttery instead of left-wing.
Ha ha, you just keep doing it, and the effort is really pretty PC too. You've just GOT to invent an equivalence between my opinions and liberal PC even though it's such a ridiculous stretch there is no comparison. The fiction is yours.'
Liberals so often just don't think, they search around for the politically correct position and put that up for their opinion.
Good that you can laugh at your own jokes.
You are the most PC right-winger I have ever seen. When you sling fresh bull manure (that's PC for bullshit), some is bound to stick to you.

Doesn't matter what we say, does it? Christianity is Catholic, that's its origin. Once a Catholic always a Catholic.
