The Loss of Meaning
Years ago the human race found out that the “N” word was inappropriate to use. It became socially unacceptable as it should. However, since the initial enlightenment of our generation to the benefits of sensitivity, more words have been added. Political correctness is all about control of speech. It has degenerated to the point where one wonders if civilization is on the threshold of collapse.
The word “guys” is just one of many that have of late been added to the official list of words we can’t use. If we do, we are shamed, shunned and marginalized as much as possible. Recently a young man of 24 raised a lot of money for a children’s hospital. A large company was interested in making it a national campaign. However, a reporter for the Washington Post looked through his twitter history and found something inappropriate when he was 16. Sixteen. I wonder if the reporter said anything as a teenager that was a little “wrong”. The company backed out because they didn’t want to be linked to “racist” reactions of the mob. In reality, they were wimps and leftist wimps at that. So another member of the media diminished a young man for doing something good.
The people on the left are calling everything racist to the point that it is meaningless. And it is dividing our country which may be irreversible. Hate for hate’s sake. All white people are racist to the rage crowd. Certain jesters are now “racist” because “white supremists” use them. I wonder what kind of vehicles white supremists drive. Would those become racist too?
We must not allow leftist idiots to control our lives. Their aim is to destroy common sense, logic, and all traces of morality. Big corporations cow tow to these thugs making stopping the stampede to the gulag difficult to stop.
But we must. We have no choice. It behooves us to support businesses that have a moral base. I still see decent people taking their kids to Disneyland even though Disney, like the rest of the entertainment industry, is purposely exposing our children to perverse culture. I realize that boycotts don’t work well because Christian people don’t care as much as leftists. They’ve done quite well getting sponsors to leave conservative programs. It’s truly sad that moral people don’t care. Some of it is lack of knowledge, but I don’t consider ignorance an excuse.
People perish for lack of knowledge. There’s no upside to being ignorant.
