Most un-PC Belief?

[Neil]

I believe that a certain subset of lefties has basically swapped the irrationality of religion from the past to the irrationality of pseudoscience of the present.

You mean like the anti-vaccinators or the organic everything crowd?

Anti vaccination is mostly anti science which is a different beast altogether, but I think you can include certain attitudes towards the pharmaceutical industry in a similar category, which mixes that with anti corporate attitudes. A lot has to do with the preachiness they sometimes spouse.

You're lucky. Anti-immigration, anti-vaccination and the "alternative" crowd have joined hands here. It's like Breivik with blogs. Now this is un-PC, but I wouldn't mind if the lot of them did get abducted by aliens, died from vaccinations or got viciously murdered by immigrants.

Well, maybe the first two.  It would be unwise to give the immigrants a taste for human flesh.

When I find myself in complete agreement with Neil, I get a bit scared. Yet it is comforting.

No sweet, sweet southern 'tang for Zanza.

  The thread, Yi.  The thread.

Maybe the comment still works in this thread.

I guess there are varying definitions here.  To me PC is avoiding saying something you believe to be true because it will cause a large number of people to be offended (or pretend to be offended).  I've always thought that political correctness in some form existed both on the right and left, though more often on the left.

So if someone says that it's not PC to say blacks are inferior it means he believes it to be true but something he can not say?

Okay, throw out the "believes to be true" part then, Raz.  I guess you can make a politically incorrect remark that you don't truly believe.  Jeez.

So a politically incorrect statement is simply one that isn't true?

No.

My most un-PC belief is now that arguing with Raz is like voluntarily go for waterboarding.

[Eddie Teach]

It's almost as bad as arguing with grumbler or tall Canadian grumbler.

[Admiral Yi]

Arguing with Raz can be like pushing a test tube cleaner up your urethra.

So orders of magnitude better than arguing with grumbler.

I'm just trying to understand your world, guys.

Most of the time, I think I am too.
I'm about as clued in as the Log Lady in Twin Peaks.
