you are a conservative, just think of this as the equivalent of people
having a right to protest/speak out against gay marriage or what have
you.
If you are a libertarian, just think of this as the
equivalent of people having a right to protest/speak out against
government regulation or what have you.
If you are a centrist,
just think of this as the equivalent of people having a right to
protest/speak out against all these damn activists.
Everyone bitches, everyone has their causes, news at eleven.
As
a liberal I do not believe it is a Iranian-style theocratic police
action every time some conservative religious group wages a campaign in
the media against homosexuality, I disagree with it but it is not some
sort of thought police.
Similarly, what you call political
correctness is just certain groups that speak out on certain issues.
Their right to speak out is your right to disagree; your disagreement is
just as much an activist opinion as their own.
Honestly, what
parallel dimension are you from where the perhaps relevant perhaps not
argument that offensive costumes are harmless or even good for society
is any less of a social engineering type thing than the opposing view?
This
stuff is controversial, so you can't take one side of the issue or the
other without being an activist. Thinking you are being a hipster or
edgy, or fighting against those damn hipsters, or however you frame it
in your diseased brain, does not somehow make your "lol, racism is
funny/not an issue trolololol" comment the baseline, majority, or
standard opinion. You are not some voice of the regular joe speaking out
against cultural brainwashing, you are attempting your own cultural
brainwashing in response to cultural brainwashing you disagree with. |
