# Political Correctness

The issue is not my language but your ego.

Political correctness (abbreviated PC, also political cowardice) stands for pseudoleftist censorship and propaganda forced into language, thinking, science, art and generally all of culture, officially justified as "protecting people from getting offended". It's not just a way of social network virtue signaling but also a handy political tool serving mostly as a weapon and vehicle for populism, a concept allowing creation of political capital by taking advantage of the events of the second World War, similarly to how for example religious ideas are twisted and turned for justifying political decisions completely incompatible with the religion in question. Political correctness is toxicity forced into mainstream culture, it does an immense harm to society as it is an artificially invented "issue" that not only puts people and science under heavy control, surveillance, censorship and threat of punishment, normalizing such practice, but also destroys culture, freedom of art and research and creates a great conflict between those who conform and those who value truth, freedom of art, science and communication, not talking about burdening the whole society with yet another competitive bullshit that doesn't have to exist at all. Political correctness is mainly a political tool that allows elimination (so called cancelling) and discrediting opposition of pseudoleftist political movements and parties, as well as brainwashing and thought control (see e.g. Newspeak), and as such is criticized both by rightists and leftists (see e.g. leftypol).

Example of politically correct ASCII art. Note the absence of any content that might offend someone. Still the art is imperfect because it has a white background which might be seen as racially offensive.

The whole idea is basically about declaring certain words, pictures, patterns of behavior and similar things as inherently "offensive" to specific selected minorities (currently mostly women, gay, negros and other non-white races, trannies, fat and retarded people), even outside any context, and about constantly fabricating new reasons to get offended so as to fuel the movement that has to ride on hysteria. For example the word black box is declared as "offensive" to black people because... well, like, black people were discriminated at some point in history and their skin is black... so... the word black now can't be said? :D You have to call it "afroamerican box" now. WTF. A sane mind won't understand this because we're dealing with a literal extremist cult here. It just keeps getting more ridiculous, for example feminists want to remove all words that contain the substring "man" from the language because... it's a male oppression? lol... anyway, we can no longer use words like snowman, now we have to say snowperson or something :D Public material now does best if it doesn't walk on the thin ice of showing people with real skin color and better utilize a neutral blue people :D Fuck just kill me already lmao. This starts to get out of hand as fuck, SJWs started to even push the idea that in git the default branch name, master, is offensive, because well, the word has some remote connection to some history of oppression, so they pushed for its change and achieved it, which practically caused a huge mess and broke many git projects -- this is what they do, there was literally not a single reason for the change, they could have spent their energy on actually programming something nice, but they rather used it on breaking what already exists just to demonstrate their political power. What's next? Will they censor the word "chain" in terms like toolchain or blockchain because chains have something to do with slavery? Will they order to repaint the ISS from white to black because the color white is oppressive? The actual reason for this apparent stupidity is at this point not anyone's protection (probably not even themselves believe it anymore) but rather forcing submission -- it's the same psychological tactic used by any oppressor: he just gives a nonsensical order, like "start barking like a dog!", to see who blindly conforms and who doesn't -- those who don't are just eliminated right away and those who conform out of fear have their will broken, they will now blindly obey the ruler without thinking about the sanity of his orders.

As political correctness is reaching new heights with every passing year, we are shifting towards dumbing down the sense of morality to mere detection of keywords. Where in the past a vulgarism or "slur" was judged in a context, nowadays we simply make harsh, context-free judgments resting solely on a presence or absence of a word or similar symbol -- the word nigger must never be used, no matter if it would be done in a way that actually opposes racism -- let's say in a satire -- a well behaved citizen is not supposed to think anymore, art is too dangerous to be allowed. We should ban pencils because you may use them to draw bad things, hammers because they may be used as a weapon and humor because that might touch someone's feelings.

Political correctness is a typical woman thinking emotional bullshit that looks for problems where they're not instead on focusing on solving real issues. For example in the world of technology a man will focus on designing a good computer, creating minimalist design, good APIs and programming languages, while a woman will become obsessed about what color to paint it, what animal mascot it should have and what nickname to give it so that it sounds cute but doesn't touch anyone feelings -- political correctness makes this relatively harmless little quirk of woman thinking into cancerous society wide obsession and forces everyone to be preoccupied with it. It is stupidity that got out of hand. It happened partially because society took women their dolls they could play these games with and forced them into fields that were meant only for men. It is also further worsened by cultural castration of men -- a man in 21st century is already half woman.

Despite claims of the opposite, the paradoxical goal of political correctness is to remove diversity from society, it aims to establish a unified, sterile society that's afraid of even hinting on someone else's difference out of fear of punishment. In this society the western capitalist culture is supposed to displace all other cultures and make everyone the same kind of robot, a cell of the global metaorganism, behaving in exact same preprogrammed ways, following the same life path, getting the same education, sharing the same values, following the same laws, consuming goods, going to work every day until designated retirement age and then dying. An example speaking for itself may be the gypsies who had long lived a nomadic, close to nature life, and who have now been robbed of it by the cancerous "civilized" society who, without asking, forbade such lifestyle with law and punishment and calls it "offensive" for gypsies to be connected with their traditions -- a gypsy is now supposed to abandon his customs, dress in a suit with a tie and start behaving like the white man. That's indeed some fucked up shit. People are different, it's a good thing, stereotypes are based in reality and us acknowledging it -- even by joking about stereotypes -- doesn't at all imply hatred (in fact that requires some fucked up mental gymnastics and a shitty society that pushes competitive thinking), diversity is good, keeps us aware of strength in unity: everyone is good at something and bad at something, and sometimes we just do things differently, a westerner might approach a problem differently than Asian or Arab, they look different, think and behave differently and will aim for different goals in life, perhaps even better ones than hoarding money and consuming products. True diversity is a good thing, and if diversity means differences, why mustn't we talk about that what makes us different? If diversity is good, why must we pretend we are all the same? Political correctness forbids this kind of thinking and only proclaims that "there is no such thing as differences in people or culture besides skin color, don't even dare to start on it", it attempts to make us believe that a black man is no different than white man who fell in a pool of black paint and it will go on to censor anything contradicting this stance, leaving behind nothing but plain white sheet of paper without anything on it, a robotic member of society that's afraid to ask someone about his gender or even place where he comes from, someone unable of thinking or communicating on his own, only resorting to preapproved "safe" ways of communication. Indeed, reality yet again beats the worst dystopian works of fiction.

Political correctness goes strictly against free speech, it tries to force people "to behave" and be afraid of words and talking, it creates conflict, divides society (for dividing the working class it is criticized e.g. by Marxists) and also TEACHES people to be offended by language -- i.e. even if a specific word wouldn't normally be used or seen in a hostile way (e.g. the master branch in git repositories), political correctness establishes that NOW IT IS OFFENSIVE and specific minorities SHOULD take offense, even if they normally wouldn't, supporting offended culture and fight culture. I.e. political correctness can be called a cancer of society. LRS must never adhere to political correctness!

The death of free speech can especially be seen on the Internet, there is an immense pressure on establishing control, surveillance and authorities over what used to be a hope for a free cybernetic world. This is of course motivated by evil interests just like any other kind of new land colonization, and political correctness is an official excuse to make it happen. It's obvious to anyone who dares to think that removing free speech from our main medium of communication so that "people's feeling don't get hurt" is similarly stupid as (and infinitely more dangerous than) removing the possibility to win or lose from the rules of chess because we suddenly realized that some people may feel bad when they lose.

Of course, political correctness doesn't stop at censoring simple words, don't get mistaken. Facts in textbooks and encyclopedias such as those regarding race and sex differences are censored and replaced with lies with the help of soyence. This is no longer just an annoyance -- this a serious danger to society, threat to free and independent thinking and sharing of information. Political correctness tries to forcefully dictate standards of a culture by an extremely rapidly changing fashion, e.g. the standard of beauty, politeness and so on -- last week we celebrated the international gender fluid day but THIS WEEK we celebrate fat disabled women with acne issues, all TV ads must have at least one crippled landwhale or else you're cancelled. If you can't keep up with their latest inventions you'll be executed -- on no, you used the term "mentally ill"! HOW DARE YOU THAT'S SO OFFENSIVELY AGGRESSIVE YOU HAVE TO SAY NEURODIVERGENT, you're basically Hitler now (but wait until next week when the word neuro itself becomes offensive).

Not to digress, let's get back to a bit more serious. Just for the autistic neuroretarded people persons that might misunderstand our stance on social equality: LRS is for complete social equality not just of all people, but all living beings, however political correctness has nothing to do with achieving it, in fact it mostly goes against it, it creates severe collateral damage, divides people and fuels social conflict rather than calm it. We try to not cure symptoms of a shit society by harmful means but rather address the root cause by transitioning to a good society without conflict where there is no need for censorship, fact distortion and brainwashing to prevent discrimination. In the society we envision accepting facts about physical inequality does not imply an attack or discrimination at all as humans don't compete by their abilities, in such society the idea of political correctness is as ridiculous as e.g. arguing we should be creating numerically more inclusive datasets with higher leading digits as by Benford's law smaller digits are are a statistical majority that oppresses higher digits.

Political correctness comes with a funny little phenomenon in a form of constant bullshit cycle of banning old words that gained negative connotation and forcing newly invented clean-slate words -- in the past when official medical terms such as idiot, imbecile, moron, cretin and mongoloid started to be seen as "offensive", a new, politically correct term mental retardation was invented to replace them -- of course, the term retardation later became seen as offensive too so they had to invent new terms, one of the newest ones seem to be neurodivergency -- this term will itself become highly offensive in about 10 to 20 years. At that time it will be extremely funny to browse the web archive and seeing people proudly proclaiming they are "neurodivergent" when at the time it will be seen as if they nowadays proclaimed they are a retarded idiot :D The term autism currently seems to be going through the transition from politically correct to "offensive", the Internet already made the word "autistic" largely synonymous to "stupid". Giving in to these trends is not just harmful by giving approval to the idea of language control, it's also just plain stupid, just as following any kind of fashion.

Political correctness fuels racism (racism in the true sense of the word, i.e. hatred between human races). Before political correctness there wasn't as much hatred between human races as there is today. Exploitation yes -- black people were exploited just like workers are exploited by bourgeoisie, but there wasn't really hatred, just as there isn't a hatred of your boss towards you or of as there is no hatred of the slaughterer towards the pig. Hate is a construct of political correctness that tries to start a war to which hatred is a prerequisite.

Yet another harm of political correctness lies in making people too focused on shallow words instead of focusing on real issues, it actually makes people feel they are helping while they're not. It's not just the harsh punishments for saying bad words, even if they wouldn't do much actual damage, it is also the opposite -- inventing new words and offering them as "solutions" to issues, which has a similar effect of providing false comfort like for example the Facebook mindset of "I am helping the world by changing my profile picture to Ukrainian flag!". For example it's completely absurd how some very old people who have been outsiders for their whole lives because they're simply weird, shy, too stupid or smart, are suddenly offered a supposed comfort by being told: "you're not weird, you're just neurodivergent!" The guy is like "OH MY GOD, my whole life I have suffered, I thought I was just not good with people, but in fact I was just neurodivergent my whole life -- if only I knew back then!". The amount of stupidity is incredible.

More and more minorities start to jump on the wave of political correctness to kickstart the multiplication of their political capital, everyone wants to get on the scene by demanding more "rights" and complaints about "offenses" are one of the most effective ways of doing so -- "Hey society, we are the arachnophobia minority and we demand you remove all pictures of spiders because it makes us sad!" Now society has to stop showing spiders, make spider toys, even mention the word spider. What about people who actually like spiders? Fuck them. Watch out! There are people with epilepsy, PTSD, OCD, rape victims, autism, claustrophobia, agoraphobia, schizophrenia, social phobia, fear of dark, fear of light, fear of fear and plethora of other things. Be sure to not offend any of them! Best if you do nothing AT ALL, that's the safest way. Did you know there probably exist people who are afraid of color green or maybe cars or circle shapes? Remove all that shit, it might cause slight discomfort to someone! Eventually political correctness, in an attempt to remove any and all possibility of causing discomfort to someone, cripples the whole world for everyone, like an overprotective parent ruins a kid's childhood but never letting it go outside, talk to other children, climb trees, touch animals or get dirty. Our society has become an insane, overprotective psychopath.

Let us now compare how we, LRS, approch the issue of "getting offended" versus how the pseudoleft does it. We start with the "problem": people are getting offended. What do we do?

- solution A: the LRS way:
  1. Teach people to not get offended and if they still do it's not a big deal.
  2. solved
- "solution" B: political correctness:
  1. Create committees who decide what is offensive and what isn't, it will be perpetually at work as new offensive terms appear.
  2. Create committees looking over the committees so that corruption is more difficult (but still inevitable, in practice just postponed).
  3. Create propaganda, invest great resources into awareness campaigns, train propaganda popularizators. They will have to be constantly at work.
  4. Create new laws that take the new definitions of "offense" into account. Employ people who will be constantly updating the laws as the base committee definitions are updated.
  5. Train new lawyers, judges, "experts" and investigators to bring the laws to practice.
  6. Develop new technology for censorship of politically incorrect material -- this will do collateral damage but that's inevitable.
  7. Train and employ new people to maintain, operate and further develop said technology. They will have to be constantly at work.
  8. Create political parties, add fuel to the fire, make movies, censor bad movies, make COCs, rewrite old books, pay influencers, punish nonconformists, make flags, buy studies, ...
  9. hundreds more steps here
  10. ... Is the problem solved now? No, but a bunch of new offensive words appeared while half of population wasted their lives on complete bullshit. Jump to step 1.

It's pretty clear political correctness is not a solution, it's just a newly spawned perpetual business.

Latest trend on social media and in advertisement seems to be a sort of "pseudo political incorrectness", i.e. pretending to be politically incorrect to grab attention but in fact not really being politically incorrect. One example is using swearwords, which of course aren't politically incorrect by themselves. It goes along the lines of "IN TIMES OF POLITICAL CORRECTNESS, this SUPER HERO CELEBRITY IS A COOL NONCONFORMING REBEL not afraid of inserting an occasional swearword such as fuck into his social commentary youtube video". Of course this is retarded as fuck, political incorrectness isn't at all about swearwords, it is about opposing the pseudoleftist gospel by using language in unapproved ways, i.e. you may be politically incorrect without being rude simply by stating "white women are less intelligent than white men but more intelligent than black men", and you may be rude without being politically incorrect, e.g. by saying "we should murder this white guy because he is white so fuck him". Other tactics may be much more subtle because they may actually constitute a very light form of political incorrectness, but only such that is tolerated, but there's still a deception in marketing the art in question as "highly controversial" or something along those lines. A typical example is the movie Serial (Bad) Weddings, a comedy quite cheaply built on recounting all existing racial stereotypes, but always only in ways that actually PARODY and ridicule the use of those stereotypes, i.e. the movie is in fact the exact opposite of what it seems at first sight: it is a criticism of stereotypes.

{ LMAO I just almost completely shat myself, in some video I overheard something like "vertically challenged", someone said it with a COMPLETELY SERIOUS FACE -- It absolutely baffled me like WTF does that mean? It was a bit of a headscratcher for me till I looked it up and actually found it's now an established way of saying someone is simply short :'D I fucking can't anymore with this shit. Bruh I wonder what horizontally challenged would mean, is it like someone who's real fat? Or would that be like volumetrically challenged? ~drummyfish }

{ How High is a 2001 comedy, now a classic, that makes fun of political correctness, and its cast is actually mostly black. Very comfy movie. ~drummyfish }

## List Of Insults

Here is a small insult thesaurus. { The moby-thesaurus package for dict can be used to get some more insults. ~drummyfish }

abomination, albino, alibaba, alien, americunt, anus, ape, assburger, asshole, autist, ballsucker, bastard, biotrash, birdbrain, bitch, blockhead, boomer, braindead, brownie, burden, buttfucker, cannibal, capitalist, castrato, chicken shit, chimp, chink, ching chong, cocksucker, clown, colored, coomer, coon, corpse, crap, creep, cretin, cripple, cuck, cunt, cumbrain, cyclope, degenerate, dement, dickhead, dipshit, disgusting, dogshit, drunk, dumbass, dummy, dwarf, egghead, E.T., eunuch, excrement, extra chromosome, faggot, failed abortion, failure, fart, fascist, fat, fetus, feminist, filth, fool, freak, fucker, garbage, gator bait, gay, gaylord, ghoul, gimp, gender bender, goblin, goon, gorilla, half-cattle, hijo de puta, Hitler, hoe, homo, hopeless, humanzee, icenigger, idiot, imbecile, inbreeder, incel, jackass, jerk, jihad, kike, kebab, king kong, landwhale, leech, lesbo, libtard, loser, maggot, manchild, menstruator, midget, mistake, monkey, moron, motherfucker, mouthbreather, mudblood, mummy, mutant, neanderthal, nigger, noob, normie, NPC, nuisance, old fart, ogre, orangutan, orc, oven dodger, oxygen thief, pain in the ass, pajeet, peasant, pidor, piece of shit, pig, pisshead, potato, prat, prick, psycho, puke, pussy, quasimodo, queer, rapist, rat, redneck, retard, retrasado, rot, rubbish, sandnigger, scat, schizo, scum, shemale, shirt lifter, shit, shithead, shitskin, simp, sissy, skeleton, skunk, slave, slut, smelly, snot, snownigger, Sum Ting Wong, son of a bitch, stinker, stupid, snorlax, soyboy, subhuman, subnormal, sucker, terrorist, titsucker, trash, triffid, troon, turd, twat, ugly, undead, vegetable, vermin, Voldemort, waste, weirdo, wimp, witch, whore, worm, yankee, zombie, zoomer

Insult generators can be made for example using regular expressions such as `(ass|butt|dick|cum|shit|fuck|soy|dumb|fat|crap|gay|skunk|jew|mud|cock|leech|jerk|dog)(head|wipe|nigger|whore|slut|tard|butt|boy|clown|bubble|turd|rat|pig|muggle|fart|fail|sucker)`.

The secret of an effective insult is not in maximizing vulgarity -- a common beginner mistake of many Internet noobs -- but in hitting a sensitive spot. This can be for example someone's body abnormality, race, shameful event that happened to him, but perhaps most effective is targeting one's closest family such as parents or children. If you tell someone he's shit, nobody gives one, but if you say he must have been bred from cow diarrhea mixed with dog puke, he'll probably get a bit upset as you're now targeting his parents and culturally he's supposed to "defend them". A megainsult may combine all the above and focus for example on a disability of the target's child. which is almost guaranteed to provoke physical violence. Targeting someone's religion (especially Islam) may result in death.
