No bigger a problem than a hydroelectric dam breaking. The BIG problem is
the slanted and sometimes false information that is spread by the media

just
to have an exciting story.


- which is one facet of the PC cult.

I remember the first time I heard the term "political correctness"... I
remember thinking that they must be talking about Red China and their crude
brainwashing experiments, back in the 1950's. It most certainly leaves that
same bad taste in the mouth, doesn't it?

Then I found out that it was the latest thing going on in U.S. politics, and
I thought it was a joke. Surely after winning the cold war and conclusively
proving that socialism was a miserable dead-end, we would not be stupid
enough to take on the trappings of the corrupt, backward culture we had just
defeated.

Imagine my surprise when it turned out that many people really ARE that
stupid! Amazing, isn't it?
