Wonderful post from a friend on Facebook


Snip:

Recently saw a few posts from folks in my news feed about how sick and tired they are of political correctness. Here's the deal . . .The actual definition of political correctness is the avoidance of rhetoric or actions that alienate, demean, discriminate, or disrespect underprivileged, oppressed, or marginalized groups. If you can't step up your game in order to not alienate, marginalize or oppress groups, then fuck off.
