'Political Correctness Gone Wrong'

Mr. A. S. Jordan
(I.T Architect)
 
- It starts like this...
 
We all take a view that offending somebody or some ethnic group in this day and age whether it be saying something out of turn or an action we choose to do is highly frowned upon, which absolutley true... to an extent...
 
Now, I could say to somebody out of politeness; what's wrong with there behaviour, hair, some sort of silly defect or maybe an action they are about to do that may effect things in a negative way in the near future (as examples).
 
People generally do this, as good friends would do, or to give a bit of guidance to somebody if they feel it's necessary.
 
 
 
- And we take it like this...
 
"What did you say that for ?, that's not very nice is it !"
                                or
"Thanks a lot pal, I'll see you in court"
 
 
 
- What the hell happened ?...
 
Now I'm not that old, and it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that people don't like the truth in some respects, but they fail to see the positive side of things in everything all of us do at some point in our lives. We are all to picky nowadays and to get on with each other we need to agree to differ sometimes and forget comments and actions each of us make, without taking things to heart; whether it be direct or in-direct effect (as groups and sole decisions as well).
 
I think as a whole, we gave up listening to each other years ago, and are just hearing what people have to say... HEH, believe it or not there is a difference between the two and it does make a BIG difference in the long run !...
 
I agree on some levels, anybody would, but in my experience over the years (Ahem) I have learned that no matter how hard you try in anything you do, or whatever action you make, IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO PLEASE EVERYBODY !
 
I also think a lot of people use this correctness as an excuse to carry on with the material things in life which shouldn't really matter to much E.G: Watching TV, Playing on a PC, Locking yourself in some room with a games console and isolating yourself from society... Instead of talking to people, interacting and learning what people have to offer as a person and actually agreeing with something.
 
I know it's easier to moan and groan and go back to do what you normally do in life, but we have a thing in the UK, especially at the moment with racist matters ETC and how to combat it...
And, if we're not talking to one another and just giving some silly answer to everything without proper thought (as in a chess game), nothing is going to get sorted ! This is another reason we are all fighting each other.
 
 
 
- Conclusion ?
 
I could make points all day and maybe you could eventually print off 30 pages of A4, BUT....
 
I think the only way forward is for us to:
 
    a) Be polite (even if you disagree)
    b) You need to respect peoples views; even if you don't agree ! (think about it, it makes sense !)
    c) Encourage others to do the same and stop the small mindedness
    d) Don't be "Egotistical" about matters (that does wind people up, and no, they probably wont listen anyway  =] )
   
And last but certainly not least ! ........
 
    e) Whatever the hell happened to the saying "Sticks and Stones" for crying out loud !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!....... Grow up you lot !
 
 
 
 
 
PHEW... My fingers ache........
