Political Correctness

What compels a person to see something beautiful and helpless, sleeping beneath the willows by the brook in the spring, delicate and docile, and rape it, destroy it, cut it to pieces and devour it after a slow boil? Calm your heart, because it's the same urge that causes seemingly rational people to swear an allegiance to political correctness. PC is the demon of social decay, the lord of the flies, that feeds off otherwise healthy and passionate human behavior and shits out its prefabricated, soft and grotesque version of reality. Originality, essence, meaning, it's all lost in the transformation, and what is produced is nothing less than the ultimate victim of molestation--the slow decay of our free society.

Children grow up in a prefabricated world simply because the world has already been established before their birth, but adults seem to want to go one step further. Raising a child on a PC version of that world is similar to feeding them food that has already been chewed up and regurgitated by the parent. There is the real world, let's say, the cheese on a cracker, and then there's the PC version of it, the cheese and cracker mush laced with saliva and stomach acids that has been thoroughly chewed and digested by an adult. Both plates contain the essential food product, the only difference is that one contains the real treat and the other is what occurs when adults have to intervene. After that, it becomes difficult to tell what is real, seeing as the regurgitation is sitting right there on the plate and seems real enough, it's just that now we have to begin force feeding to get the child to eat it when they could have just eaten it themselves.

Many "concerned parents" won't think this is an accurate comparison, because in this case the cheese and cracker is obviously more healthy than the pre-digested slop, and in reality, many things that are PC don't inflict all that much damage on the young--at least no more or less damage than exposing the kid to the real world. It is an accurate comparison though, as all adult intervention to censor reality, limit freedom of expression, limit knowledge, or ban outright any part of a child's ability to reach out to the real world around them is dangerous, not only for children but for all of free society. The reality we want our children to eventually live in is the real one, not the fabricated "inoffensive" one called politically correct. They already live in the real world, and one day will possess it, like it or not, and no amount of focus group tampering or "concerned parent" molestation of reality is going to stop them from possessing it.
