What's with all this PC nonsense?

Politically Correct is a term coined by the communists to describe wether your thoughts were in line with the party line.Why it's seen as something we must do to be nice for a bunch of namby-pamby touchee-feely political hacks is beyond me. You've got 4 million years of evolution behind you that got us to the the top of the food chain....ACT LIKT IT!!!

What does evolution have to do with political correctness? I mean, if anything, being the most advanced political creatures on the planet, PC would be something we do more than others.

if you like be controlled by others political philsophies rather than standing up for your own free thoughts, be my guest
in the U.S. we used to be able to say what we thought, now you can be areested for saying something the government doesnt like

Wow, you lived in an America that never existed? How'd you do that? Uttering some things has always been treason, and speech with the intent to cause mayhem or harm to a person(s) body or reputation (via falsity), has always been illegal. Not only that, but you don't actually get legally punished for being non-pc, but that doesn't mean there are no consequences. If you piss off you're employer, you can be fired. Same with voters, they don't have to vote for you and can decide not to based on what you say. Freedom of speech is not freedom from consequences. You can't run down the street babbling like a lunatic and expect people to see you the same way as before (unless this is a regular sort of thing you do). PC is basically just an attempt at standardized politeness. Like how it's fine to call someone white or caucasian (even if they aren't from the Caucasus for some reason), but not pasty cracker-a$$ b!tchboy.
