Unions once started out with great goals and purpose. Today, many Unions have become self-serving and lost the purpose of making worker's jobs safer, and free from abuse. Instead, some Unions seem to want to retain their members (not workers who have jobs for which they are behaving irresponsibly).
The politically correct inventors seem to have become far too rigid. Words that have been part of our life to express happy emotion (like gay) is now hi-jacked by homosexuals. The people on the Island of Lesbos (Lesvos) whose residents are known as Lesbians, Greece, resent their name being limited to something other than its origin or being called homosexual women...
I deeply resent that Song of the South, a really beautiful movie by Disney, which depicts the South in a period most wish to forget, has been a movie taken off the market. Should history really be rewritten or denied? Apparently some think that periods of our history can just be swept under the politically correct rug.
Predictably. what started out as tactfulness, consideration and kindness, was grabbed by the rigid, 'slippery-slopers' who thought it their task to rewrite everything they didn't like..Fairy, for those brought up on fairy tales, The Politically Incorrect Dictionary says 'fairy' should no longer be used. It is homophobic. " Replaced by Petite airborne humanoid which possesses magical powers. The term fairy should be avoided when discussing these mythical beings, regardless of how gay they may appear."
I particularly like someone's idea for 'bald'...comb free. The reality today is that Google has as many humor driven words as the more official lists. Click here for one.
Some things from our past should readily be altered or dropped. However, all words should not be in that category. Beware of losing our right to free speech and concepts byh falling in too deeply with the politically correct attempts.
