Offence is so easily given. And where the 'minority' issue is involved, the rules seem to shift about: most of the time a person who is female/black/disabled/gay wants this not to be their defining characteristic; you are supposed to be blind to it. But then, on other occasions, you are supposed to observe special sensitivity, or show special respect. ~ Lynne Truss
Political Correctness quotes by Lynne Truss
The critical importance of honest journalism and a free flowing, respectful national conversation needs to be had in our country. But it is being buried as collateral damage in a war whose battles include political correctness and ideological orthodoxy. ~ Juan Williams
Political Correctness quotes by Juan Williams
Political correctness means nothing to me. Nothing. It's the new Puritanism, darling. Preventing us from expressing ourselves. ~ Barry Humphries
Political Correctness quotes by Barry Humphries
When people laugh at me, they are not laughing in the way that they normally would at a comedian. They are laughing with relief, because the truth has been spoken, and political correctness has not strangled this particular gigastar. ~ Barry Humphries
Political Correctness quotes by Barry Humphries
A lot of people who go into prison go into prison straight - and when they come out, they're gay. ~ Benjamin Carson
Political Correctness quotes by Benjamin Carson
What is the best thing that happens if we refuse to abide by the dictates of political correctness? I believe that we could return to a nation that truly cherishes freedom of speech and freedom of expression. ~ Ben Carson
Political Correctness quotes by Ben Carson
If we move away from the American tradition of lawyers defending those with whom they vehemently disagree
as we temporarily did during the McCarthy period
we weaken our commitment to the rule of law ... So beware of an approach which limits advocacy to that which is approved by the standards of political correctness. ~ Alan Dershowitz
Political Correctness quotes by Alan Dershowitz
Political correctness jeopardizes more than it should the human capacity to speak the truth, ~ Karl Barth
Political Correctness quotes by Karl Barth
OPTICAL ILLUSION

Political correctness

Kamil Ali ~ Kamil Ali
Political Correctness quotes by Kamil Ali
...as long as we have the choice to read what we want, I suspect Twain and Homer and the rest will always be with us. The stoutest old writers ebb and flow in popularity; tastes and political correctness and educational trends also ebb and flow, and we have a tendency to embrace the short view because it makes better news stories. So the joy of literature may not be at a high water mark right now, and yet you can walk into the Target store of your choice and pick up Catcher in the Rye. Beauty floats, I guess, along with sorrow and hope. (http://www.wab.org/events/allofroches...) ~ Leif Enger
Political Correctness quotes by Leif Enger
Realize that people are hypocrites. The sooner you accept this fact the better. I NEVER sensor my stories. I NEVER sacrifice historical accuracy for sake of political correctness. And I apologize for nothing because I've noticed a sense of hypocrisy in regard to writing. People will buy a Stephen King book and read 900 pages of gruesome murder, graphic sex, and sometimes even kid fu**ing. And they will praise his artistic genius and buy his next filthy book. Then the same people will want to sensor every line I put on the page. To hell with that. I'm an artist too. ~ Catalina DuBois
Political Correctness quotes by Catalina DuBois
The old restriction meant that only the orthodox were allowed to discuss religion. Modern liberty means that nobody is allowed to discuss it. Good taste, the last and vilest of human superstitions, has succeeded in silencing us where all the rest have failed. ~ G.K. Chesterton
Political Correctness quotes by G.K. Chesterton
The way to stop political correctness is to not do it. If someone says, You offended me then you say I don't care! If they're offended by the truth, that's their issue! ~ Brad Stine
Political Correctness quotes by Brad Stine
Political correctness is a code to silence dissent as western society is razed. The culture wars will erupt into violence, pitting those who defend western values vs. leftists, their 'allies', and the rulers who want to consign western civilization to oblivion. ~ Michael Rectenwald
Political Correctness quotes by Michael Rectenwald
As with 'feminism,' not to mention 'liberalism' and 'conservatism,' 'political correctness' tends to mean what you want it to mean, which also pretty much amounts to utter meaninglessness. ~ Meghan Daum
Political Correctness quotes by Meghan Daum
What made such a plan seem workable was that for the early pluralists and their multicultural descendants society would have fewer and fewer traditional groups. The kind of pluralist society that Dewey and Kallen envisaged would go beyond rooted ethnic communities. It would become the evolving creation of "free" individual participants, setting goals under scientific direction and having their material interests monitored by a "conductor state." The world as conceived by pluralists was there to be managed and to be made culturally safe for its framers: Eastern and Central European Jews fearful of traditional Gentile mores and the uprooted descendants of New England Calvinists looking for the New Jerusalem under scientific management. ~ Paul Edward Gottfried
Political Correctness quotes by Paul Edward Gottfried
On the one hand, all truth is relative; on the other hand, postmodernism tells it like it really is.
On the one hand, all cultures are equally deserving of respect; on the other, Western culture is uniquely destructive and bad.
Values are subjective
but sexism and racism are really evil.
Technology is bad and destructive
and it is unfair that some people have more technology than others.
Tolerance is good and dominance is bad
but when postmodernists come to power, political correctness follows. ~ Stephen Hicks
Political Correctness quotes by Stephen Hicks
Spiritual warfare is the term;
political correctness is the weapon. ~ Barry Knauer
Political Correctness quotes by Barry Knauer
These politically correct language initiatives are misguided and harmful. They create highly entitled professional "victims" who expect to be free from any offense, and they engender a stifling atmosphere where all individuals walk on eggshells lest they might commit a linguistic capital crime. ~ Gad Saad
Political Correctness quotes by Gad Saad
I just think political correctness is crap. ~ Gary Oldman
Political Correctness quotes by Gary Oldman
Like much of the identitarian Left, feminists want to replace old etiquette rules with a new system of politically-driven language policing, controlled by them and predicated on nebulous hurt feelings and speculative "harm." Having long overturned the hectoring, socially-conservative establishment, they now want to assume its place. ~ Milo Yiannopoulos
Political Correctness quotes by Milo Yiannopoulos
Amazing- the years of political correctness pumped out of our colleges became an education of national guilt. ~ William R. Forstchen
Political Correctness quotes by William R. Forstchen
An elementary school student asked me the NOT "politically correct" question, "Is an idiot smarter than a moron?" I had to Google it because I was afraid to respond in today's PC society and didn't want to offend him, his parents, or anyone else. Here's what I found.

Technically, a moron is smarter than an idiot. An imbecile is also smarter than an idiot.

Although today the words are considered insulting and derogatory, prior to the 1960s they were widely used as actual psychology terms associated with intelligence on an IQ test.

An IQ between:
00-25 = Idiot
26-50 = Imbecile
51-70 = Moron

Explaining all of this to a nine year old with an IQ of 130 made me feel like society has turned all adults into one of the above, myself included.

When I told him that I'm afraid to openly say it, the nine year old said, "Adults are idiots! ~ Ray Palla
Political Correctness quotes by Ray Palla
No asshole would stop Harley Wright's epic quest for pussy. He would fight every bum in Manhattan for a fine piece of ass like Sorcha! ~ Alan Kinross
Political Correctness quotes by Alan Kinross
For emotion is the enemy of rational argument. ~ Steven D. Levitt
Political Correctness quotes by Steven D. Levitt
Political Correctness is like a poison flowing through the veins of a dying nation. ~ Rich Holland
Political Correctness quotes by Rich Holland
Don't ever call me mad, Mycroft. I'm not mad. I'm just ... well, differently moraled, that's all. ~ Jasper Fforde
Political Correctness quotes by Jasper Fforde
The built-in excuse has become as standard in discussions of black crime as it is unsubstantiated, except by peer consensus among the intelligentsia. The phrase "troubled youth" is a common example of the unsubstantiated but built-in excuse, since those who use that phrase usually feel no need to offer any specific evidence about the specific individuals they are talking about, who may be creating big trouble for others, while enjoying themselves in doing so. ~ Thomas Sowell
Political Correctness quotes by Thomas Sowell
...political correctness is ... not about tolerance; it's about "toe the party line or it's the gulag for you, Comrade." - Solbury Tor ~ C.J. Moran
Political Correctness quotes by C.J. Moran
I mean, this political correctness! It's worse than apartheid ~ Fredrik Backman
Political Correctness quotes by Fredrik Backman
Everyone believes in sin, the people who charge their peers with political incorrectness and the people who regard political correctness as the bogey of a little mind. What everyone does not believe in, as nearly as I can tell, is forgiveness. ~ Garret Keizer
Political Correctness quotes by Garret Keizer
Good art is becoming hard to find these days. With political correctness, the internet, globalization, and multiculturalism, people are becoming pressured to be the same as everyone else, act the same, and express themselves in the same way. Great art will soon be as rare as gold or diamonds. ~ Robert Black
Political Correctness quotes by Robert  Black
Love begets wisdom, thus it is, as often misconceived, more than vain layers of tenderness; it is inherently rational and comprehensive of the problem within the problem: for instance, envy is one of the most excused sins in the media of political correctness. Those you find most attractive, or seem to have it all, are often some of the most insecure at heart, and that is because people assume that they do not need anything but defamation. ~ Criss Jami
Political Correctness quotes by Criss Jami
I think in this country [UK] we could do with rather less political correctness and more straight talking across the board. ~ Philip Davies
Political Correctness quotes by Philip Davies
Self-censorship as a result of intimidation or social pressures, sometimes referred to as "political correctness", constitutes a serious obstacle to the proper functioning of democracy. It is important to hear the views of all persons,including the "silent majority", and to give heed to the weaker voices. ~ Alfred-Maurice De Zayas
Political Correctness quotes by Alfred-Maurice De Zayas
Sincerity is not part of the political vocabulary. If it is used or implied bells should ring ~ Bangambiki Habyarimana
Political Correctness quotes by Bangambiki Habyarimana
Political correctness is America's newest form of intolerance, and it is especially pernicious because it comes disguised as tolerance. It presents itself as fairness, yet attempts to restrict and control people's language with strict codes and rigid rules. I'm not sure that's the way to fight discrimination. I'm not sure silencing people or forcing them to alter their speech is the best method for solving problems that go much deeper than speech. ~ George Carlin
Political Correctness quotes by George Carlin
Is that racist – I mean, to be attracted to a type? Probably, but what you want is what you want, right? Your dick doesn't know fuck about political correctness, even if the rest of you is pretty well-versed. ~ Paul Russell
Political Correctness quotes by Paul Russell
Political correctness is fascism pretending to be manners. ~ George Carlin
Political Correctness quotes by George Carlin
Political correctness is modern day censorship. This still doesn't justify you in being a douchebag. ~ Kevin Focke
Political Correctness quotes by Kevin Focke
I just don't think there's that many people who think it's wrong to have control on our borders. That's not racism. It's not racism to question some of the political correctness today that's going on, to recognize that things are going as well as - for American workers, as they'd like, because people, their frustration is arising from a deep sense of unease that Washington is fiddling while their house is burning. ~ Jeff Sessions
Political Correctness quotes by Jeff Sessions
Would it be politically incorrect to call a top-ranked female anchor (with a law degree) currently on the cover of Vanity Fair a bimbo? Or would it be rude, ludicrous, wrong and pathetic? Nothing about this is hard. ~ Kathleen Parker
Political Correctness quotes by Kathleen Parker
Day by day, month by month, doubt by doubt, law and order became fascism; education, constraint; work, alienation; revolution, mere sport; leisure, a privilege of class; marijuana, a harmless weed; family, a stifling hothouse; affluence, oppression; success, a social disease; sex, an innocent pastime; youth, a permanent tribunal; maturity, the new senility; discipline, an attack on personality; Christianity... and the West... and white skin... ~ Jean Raspail
Political Correctness quotes by Jean Raspail
political correctness gets a bad rap, but all it really boils down to is minority groups asking that they not feel marginalized and hurt by everyday conversations or the media. ~ Scarlett Curtis
Political Correctness quotes by Scarlett Curtis
Good taste, the last and vilest of human superstitions, has succeeded in silencing us where all the rest has failed. ~ G.K. Chesterton
Political Correctness quotes by G.K. Chesterton
If you play devil's advocate with political correctness, you'll get the horns - deliberate misinterpretation leading to you being fully demonized. ~ Stewart Stafford
Political Correctness quotes by Stewart Stafford
I am absolutely opposed to political correctness. You cannot confront hate speech until you've experienced it. You need to hear every side of the issue instead of just one. ~ Jane Elliott
Political Correctness quotes by Jane Elliott
Are your kids learning the right lessons about 9/11? Ten years after Osama bin Laden's henchmen murdered thousands of innocents on American soil, too many children have been spoon-fed the thin gruel of progressive political correctness over the stiff antidote of truth. ~ Michelle Malkin
Political Correctness quotes by Michelle Malkin
You cannot win a war if you cannot talk honestly about the enemy Since the 9/11 attacks, political correctness and ideological prejudice - under both Republican and Democratic presidents - have distorted our analysis of the enemy, preventing us from drawing an effective plan to defeat the likes of Al Qaeda and the Islamic State. The Obama administration, blinded by its own preconceived ideas of why terrorism occurs, is influenced by malevolent actors who have an interest in censoring any talk of the religious aspects of the enemy's ideology. At the highest level of the U.S. government, terrorism is deemed to be the result of poverty, unemployment, and lack of political enfranchisement. This fallacy must be jettisoned. We are not at war with Islam. The people most immanently in danger, in fact, are the nonviolent and non-extremist Muslims of the Middle East, such as our allies in Jordan and the modern Muslims of Egypt and the United Arab Emirates. They are on the most important front of this war, and they understand just how much religion truly matters. We do a great disservice to those brave Muslims when we try to convince the world that the threat will disappear if enough people have good jobs and sound educations. ~ Sebastian Gorka
Political Correctness quotes by Sebastian Gorka
Do I shock you? I think I do. That's the problem these days – nobody speaks their mind. No, don't smile. They really don't. We've been browbeaten into conformity by all sorts of people who tell us what we can and cannot say. Haven't you noticed it? The tyranny of political correctness. Don't pass any judgement on anything. Don't open your trap in case you offend somebody or other. ~ Alexander McCall Smith
Political Correctness quotes by Alexander McCall Smith
Before we go any further, I must warn you that the things I am going to share with you throughout this interview are very explicit. I can either censor the descriptions, or I can tell you in detail. The choice is yours. But if you want the detailed explanation, then you must be prepared for graphic language. I'm no fan of political correctness, so you can't expect me to keep apologizing if your delicate, sensitive ears are offended by language. ~ Jason Luke
Political Correctness quotes by Jason Luke
Art has no obligation to evolve but it has a powerful incentive to do so. Art that is static, that captures a dead moment, is nothing. It is, at best, nostalgia; at worst, it can be a blight on our sense of who we are, a shame we pack away. Artists who refuse to listen, participate, and change along with the world around them are not being silenced or punished by censorious college sophomores, they are letting obsolescence devour them voluntarily. Political correctness is just the inexorable turn of the gear. Falling behind is preventable. ~ Lindy West
Political Correctness quotes by Lindy West
The gremlin mob turned on Root, and when they saw the triple-barreled blaster on his hip, they kept right on turning. Root grabbed the microphone from behind the desk, and hauled it out to the extent of its cable. "Now hear this," he growled, his gravelly tones echoing around the terminal. "This is Commander Root of the LEP. We have a serious situation above ground, and I would appreciate cooperation from all you civilians. First, I would like you all to stop your yapping so I can hear myself think!" Root paused to make certain his wishes were being respected. They were. "Secondly, I would like every single one of you, including those squawling infants, to sit down on the courtesy benches until I have gone on my way. Then you can get back to griping or stuffing your faces. Or whatever else it is civilians do." No one had ever accused Root of political correctness. No one was ever likely to either. ~ Eoin Colfer
Political Correctness quotes by Eoin Colfer
Political correctness? In my humor, I never talk about politics. I was never much into all that. ~ Don Rickles
Political Correctness quotes by Don Rickles
I hate political correctness. ~ Dan Jenkins
Political Correctness quotes by Dan Jenkins
The desire not to use disparaging terms for other groups can have its comic side, and is often dismissed as a product of 'political correctness'. But the concern behind it is part of the growth of one of our central moral resources. ~ Jonathan Glover
Political Correctness quotes by Jonathan Glover
There's no magic to the phrase radical Islam. It's a political talking point. It's not a strategy. And the reason I am careful about how I describe this threat has nothing to do with political correctness and everything to do with actually defeating extremism. Groups like ISIL and al-Qaeda want to make this war a war between Islam and America or between Islam and the west. They want to claim that they are the true leaders of over a billion Muslims around the world who reject their crazy notions. They want us to validate them by implying that they speak for those billion plus people. That they speak for Islam. That's their propaganda. That's how they recruit. And if we fall into the trap of painting all Muslims with a broad brush and imply that we are at war with an entire religion, then we are doing the terrorist's work for them. ~ Barack Obama
Political Correctness quotes by Barack Obama
The obsession with correct political belief and expression in art is stultifying the genre as it is necessarily exclusive. We are losing our voice in artificial, forced homogeny posing as tolerance. Propaganda-disguised-as-story drives readers away as agenda takes the place of wonder, excitement, character. and conflict. ~ Scott M. Roberts
Political Correctness quotes by Scott M. Roberts
Professional self-preservation as well as political correctness and economics has affected academic research in certain fields of study, in contrast to the fearlessness demonstrated by professors when unmasking horrors in such dangerous areas of investigation as Christian Europe (the burning of witches! colonialism!) and Catholic Spain (the ubiquitous Spanish Inquisition!). Islamic Spain is no exception to the rule. University presses do not want to get in trouble presenting an Islamic domination of even centuries ago as anything but a positive event, and academic specialists would rather not portray negatively a subject that constitutes their bread and butter. In addition, fear of the accusation of 'Islamophobia' has paralyzed many academic researchers. ~ Darío Fernández-Morera
Political Correctness quotes by Darío Fernández-Morera
Feminism has had exactly the same problem that "political correctness" has had: people keep using the phrase without really knowing what it means. ~ Caitlin Moran
Political Correctness quotes by Caitlin Moran
Racism is not about hurtful words, bruised feelings, political correctness, or refusing to call short people 'vertically challenged.' Racism is about the power to treat entire groups of people as something less than human - for the benefit of that power. That's why a Native American sports mascot is far from harmless. ~ Dave Zirin
Political Correctness quotes by Dave Zirin
We will stop the terrorist attacks before they occur because we will not be prisoners to political correctness. Rather, we will speak the truth. Border security is national security and we will not be admitting jihadists as refugees. ~ Ted Cruz
Political Correctness quotes by Ted Cruz
Civility and political correctness, contrary to the thinking of many, are not the same. Civility constrains behavior and words based on genuine caring about others, while political correctness is only a facade of caring while hoping to cultivate public approval. ~ Ben Carson
Political Correctness quotes by Ben Carson
The process which, if not checked, will abolish Man goes on apace among Communists and Democrats no less than among Fascists. The methods may (at first) differ in brutality. But many a mild-eyed scientist in pince-nez, many a popular dramatist, many an amateur philosopher in our midst, means in the long run just the same as the Nazi rulers of Germany: 'Traditional values are to be debunked' and mankind to be cut out into some fresh shape at the will (which must, by hypothesis, be an arbitrary will) of some few lucky people in one lucky generation which has learned how to do it. ~ C.S. Lewis
Political Correctness quotes by C.S. Lewis
Political correctness is a major defect of the western ethos. Some Western countries have even passed blasphemy laws that would put you in legal hot waters if you say anything negative about Islam. This means that the truth about Islam cannot be said but Muslims are given total freedom to spread their religion with lies. Islam thrives were truth is suppressed. That is one reason that westerners convert to Islam. They are lied to. How do you expect a society to survive when truth is banned and lies are allowed? ~ Ali Sina
Political Correctness quotes by Ali Sina
When political correctness first started coming around, it ruined Andrew Dice Clay and Eddie Murphy's stand-up career. Sam Kinison died at just the right time, 'cause no one was going to tolerate what he was saying anymore either. ~ Artie Lange
Political Correctness quotes by Artie Lange
Today's offended students often show a marked degree of over-reaction to words that make them feel uncomfortable. They equate speech itself, and often the most innocuous comments, with physical violence. In this, they are simply extending how they were taught as children to respond disproportionately to damaging words. That's because the child protection narrative they have been raised on makes a particular feature of blurring the line between physical and psychological harm. For example, children's charities and NGOs constantly broaden definitions of abuse this way and, in doing so, actively encourage children to be suspicious of entirely harmless, informal, emotional interactions and tensions, even within their own families. ~ Claire Fox
Political Correctness quotes by Claire Fox
I maintain that cultural sensitivity should be replaced by cultural awareness. Awareness implies research, consideration, thought, and judiciousness ...
Sensitivity denies equal access to language. It segregates and censors based on the background of the writer rather than the content of the story. No society can embrace cultural sensitivity and retain full capacity for freedom of speech. ~ Scott M. Roberts
Political Correctness quotes by Scott M. Roberts
In the United States and Canada, many young people are currently being raised on the idea of "safe spaces". Ideas that fall outside of the framework of Political Correctness are seen as so offensive that hearing these ideas is believed to be psychologically damaging. The young generation should therefore get 'protected' from these opposing ideas. It is hard to come up with a more effective way to create a generation of idiots. Besides being deeply and intensely indoctrinated with Political Correctness, these young people have an additional tendency to connect Western values and principles to the concept of "white supremacy". Western values and principles are thus "racist" and Western Civilisation is "oppressive". ~ Paul Nielsen
Political Correctness quotes by Paul Nielsen
Transcend political correctness and strive for human righteousness. ~ Anthony J. D'Angelo
Political Correctness quotes by Anthony J. D'Angelo
Right now we live in an age of extreme Political Correctness. It has gone way too far. I hope it's just a phase. Political Correctness is now just a fancy word for censorship. It's no longer about protecting the weak. It has become an excuse to persecute others, because persecuting people is fun. Don't you dare say or think the wrong thing, or a Twitter mob of angry villagers will come after you with digital torches and metaphorical pitchforks. ~ Oliver Markus Malloy
Political Correctness quotes by Oliver Markus Malloy
I focus on a simple message: when you leave the two-thirds of Americans without college degrees out of your vision of the good life, they notice. And when elites commit to equality for many different groups but arrogantly dismiss "the dark rigidity of fundamentalist rural America,"6 this is a recipe for extreme alienation among working-class whites. Deriding "political correctness" becomes a way for less-privileged whites to express their fury at the snobbery of more-privileged whites. I don't like what this dynamic is doing to America. There are two reasons I think we have to try to replace it with a healthier one. The first is ethical: I am committed to social equality, not for some groups but for all groups. The second is strategic: the hidden injuries of class7 now have become visible in politics so polarized that our democracy is threatened. A few words ~ Joan C. Williams
Political Correctness quotes by Joan C. Williams
Stand up, speak out, and be bold. Screw political correctness. Never let them tell you to sit down and shut up. ~ Sarah Palin
Political Correctness quotes by Sarah Palin
One of the problems with NPR is that there is so much political correctness that if you've got a name that looks like it was made up by Rudyard Kipling, you've got a better chance of getting hired. I'm a white guy named Tony Snow, for heaven's sake. That's as white as it goes. ~ Tony Snow
Political Correctness quotes by Tony Snow
In the 60s, political correctness became not a guideline for living, but a new set of shackles. A small and vocal part of the Black community lost sight of the fact that unity does not mean unanimity - Black people are not some standardly digestible quantity. In order to work together we do not have to become a mix of indistinguishable particles resembling a vat of homogenized chocolate milk. ~ Audre Lorde
Political Correctness quotes by Audre Lorde
To Buckley, she embodied the worst of what in subsequent decades would be called political correctness: the mindless application to every issue of a platitudinous egalitarianism whose practical effect invariably is to expand the reach of totalitarianism. ~ William F. Buckley, Jr.
Political Correctness quotes by William F. Buckley, Jr.
Political correctness is the means by which we try to control others; decency is the means by which we try to control ourselves. ~ Theodore Dalrymple
Political Correctness quotes by Theodore Dalrymple
It's about something that strikes you as funny but I do it with a Christian world view: why we think the way we do based on God's plan. I lift up my God and my country and I resist political correctness. ~ Brad Stine
Political Correctness quotes by Brad Stine
I think political correctness really does help us when it serves us but it doesn't help us when it silences us. ~ Margaret Cho
Political Correctness quotes by Margaret Cho
The truth has become an insult. ~ Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
Political Correctness quotes by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
You can't talk about the environment, you can't talk about political correctness, affirmative action and all the other innumerable things that freedom is about, unless you have a free society based upon the integrity of the individual. If you have a responsible society, these other issues will not come up in a responsible society, and that is what freedom is all about. ~ Russell Means
Political Correctness quotes by Russell Means
A politician will promise the moon but deliver an ant hill ~ Bangambiki Habyarimana
Political Correctness quotes by Bangambiki Habyarimana
Nidal Hasan communicated with Anwar al-Awlaki, a known radical cleric, asked about waging jihad against his fellow soldiers. The problem is because of political correctness, the [Barack] Obama administration, like a lot of folks here, want to search everyone's cell phones and e-mails and not focus on the bad guys. And political correctness is killing people. ~ Ted Cruz
Political Correctness quotes by Ted Cruz
Will his work survive? Alas, I worry that it will not. As an American liberal with impeccable credentials, I would like to say that political correctness is going to kill American liberalism if it is not fought to the death by people like me for the dangers it represents to free speech, to the exchange of ideas, to openheartedness, or to the spirit of art itself. Political correctness has a stranglehold on academia, on feminism, and on the media. It is a form of both madness and maggotry, and has already silenced the voices of writers like James Dicky across the land. ~ Pat Conroy
Political Correctness quotes by Pat Conroy
Other top-level politicians do not express their global warming doubts because a whip of political correctness strangles their voice. ~ Vaclav Klaus
Political Correctness quotes by Vaclav Klaus
To think about love and passion and political correctness all together, it doesn't work. Art has to go way past the political to be effective. ~ Louise Erdrich
Political Correctness quotes by Louise Erdrich
Don't worry about offending people. Any time you write something thought provoking, some idiots will complain, because they hate it when you make them think. ~ Oliver Markus Malloy
Political Correctness quotes by Oliver Markus Malloy
He even let me smoke a cigarette in his office, but he urged me to quit smoking because of the health risks. He even had a pamphlet in his desk that he gave me. I now use it as a bookmark. ~ Stephen Chbosky
Political Correctness quotes by Stephen Chbosky
In my opinion, most of us have not been taught how to be responsible for our thoughts and feelings. I see this strongly in the widespread tendency to read books and stories as if they exist to confirm how we are supposed to be, think, and feel. I'm not talking about wacky political correctness, I'm talking mainstream ... Ladies and gentlemen, please. Stop asking, "What am I supposed to feel?" Why would an adult look to me or any other writer to tell him or her what to feel? You're not supposed to feel anything. You feel what you feel. Where you go with it is your responsibility. If a writer chooses to aggressively let you know what he or she feels, where you go with it is still your responsibility. ~ Mary Gaitskill
Political Correctness quotes by Mary Gaitskill
Britain is obsessed with political correctness. ~ Marcus Brigstocke
Political Correctness quotes by Marcus Brigstocke
There are three things I like about cannoli; they are a wonderfully greedy pleasure known the world over, their cameo appearance in The Godfather was made famous by Corleone family capo, "Fat Pete" Clemenza, and they don't use their celebrity status to tell me how to live my life. ~ Anthony P. Mauro, Sr
Political Correctness quotes by Anthony P. Mauro, Sr
The belief that there is a difference between good and bad, meaningful and meaningless, profound and vapid, exciting and banal - this belief was once fundamental to musical education. But it offends against political correctness. Today there is only my taste and yours. The suggestion that my taste is better than yours is elitist, an offence against equality. But unless we teach children to judge, to discriminate, to recognise the difference between music of lasting value and mere ephemera, we give up on the task of education. Judgment is the precondition of true enjoyment, and the prelude to understanding art in all its forms. ~ Roger Scruton
Political Correctness quotes by Roger Scruton
The cornerstone of the political correctness that dominates campus culture is radical feminism. ~ Phyllis Schlafly
Political Correctness quotes by Phyllis Schlafly
A mother was thinking of how to keep her naughty child in line she tried using the boogey man it didn't work ... she thought and thought then said "the Politician is going to get you" and he was never naughty again ~ Rassool Jibraeel Snyman
Political Correctness quotes by Rassool Jibraeel Snyman
It's getting funnier because everybody's categories are disintegrating, and the cult of political correctness dictates that we never point out that other people don't make sense. ~ Terence McKenna
Political Correctness quotes by Terence McKenna
Political correctness has changed everything. People forget that political correctness used to be called spastic gay talk. ~ Frankie Boyle
Political Correctness quotes by Frankie Boyle
We're led to believe everybody opposes it and disagrees with political correctness, but yet everybody's scared to death of it. So who is it? Well, it's the power structure wherever you happen to be. ~ Rush Limbaugh
Political Correctness quotes by Rush Limbaugh
The dream of true economic, gender and racial equality in a free society, which was cherished (if not achieved) by Leftists of the post-war generation, died under New Labour; but the egalitarianism at its heart was resurrected by a merciless minority as the brain-sucking zombie of Political Correctness. ~ Mark Crutchfield
Political Correctness quotes by Mark Crutchfield
If someone were to say, we should not letting Jews into the country, and people had a reaction against that, would that be the same thing as that kind of toxic political correctness tamping down honest discussion? ~ Chris Hayes
Political Correctness quotes by Chris Hayes
Our universities teach non-white, non-Christian, and female students to find offense everywhere. American students get degrees in Finding Offense. ~ Dennis Prager
Political Correctness quotes by Dennis Prager
