Political correctness
« on: August 24, 2013, 01:10:42 PM »
 There is an annual contest at Bond University, Australia, calling for the most appropriate definition of a contemporary term.


This year's chosen term was 'political correctness'.

The winning student wrote:

”Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rapidly promoted by mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a piece of shit by the clean end.''   :whistle :whistle
