THERMONUCLEAR LANGAGE
How is it we have become so thin-skinned?
As a boy I remember listening to and speaking with others on all manner of
things. I was taught that openness in
conversation and ideas was one of the things that once made America great. We told
jokes about each other and, as racially diverse as my circle of friends was, we
told n!ggr jokes, t@co b@ndr jokes, J@w jokes, and of course we told a lot of
Irish, Italian, and Polish jokes. The
gist of this is that they were jokes, innocent humour, and nothing more.
Lighten up!
It's just a joke!
I never once saw one of my
pals or other friends take offence at the jokes told. In fact, we were all pretty good at
countering a joke-for-a-joke ... in our
own sophomoric way. Well, that was then.
That was then.
This is now!
This is now! Thanks to the incredibly effective leftist
rewriting of the English language and sculpting of our very social behaviour
and conversation, we are now a people inflicted with a language of 'new speak'.
Our once beautiful and elegant language has become one of thermonuclear
possibility and 'end of the world' promise.
Time after time we have seen
movie stars, broadcasters, and talking heads of every stripe branded as bigots
and worse for an innocent a slip of the tongue.
Such slips are understandable as most of those being roasted on the fire
of today's political correctness are of my generation, having grown up in the
1960's and 70's. Old habits die hard,
but if you don't break them they can kill your future.
Here's the lowdown. Here's the frightful result of this 'language sculpting' and 'idea shaping':
In a world where 'hate crime' laws
presume to actually read your mind and interpret your thoughts and where
certain words once common in the language are now only
allowed among the privileged few, we are slaves to the edicts of the
left.
Some words are reserved for 'special' people or races.
Watch what you say and watch
what you think. Watch what you do and
watch what you may be thinking of doing or saying. Watch it! Watch out for 'Neighbour
Nazis' and most importantly watch yourself! Watch yourself? Hell yah!
Watch yourself at all times!
Today our very neighbours,
bent to the angle of social correctness required, have become our police. Gladly ratting us out, they feel it their
civic duty to keep us in line ... their line ... the
leftist line. In the grand
traditions of Nazi Germany, Soviet Russia, and Maoist China, we are becoming
our own 'police force' in service to the
government!
Let me tell you about
this: My friend Jerry was in the
break room chatting with a couple of buddies and having a beer at lunch
time. In the course of their break room chat
Jerry used the word n!ggr twice in casual passing. His friends used the word a couple of times,
and one of these guys is black. Nobody
was offended, at least nobody in this little group of buddies.
There was no malice and there
was no bitterness in their socially incorrect exchange of words. It was 'business
as usual' for a group of guys who grew up in the less socially
sensitive 70's.
There was no malice or bitterness intended or
received.
Then came the dawn of the
next day and Jerry was called into his supervisor's office to discuss a matter
of 'grave importance'. Jerry was to find out that a snoopy 'Nazi' in
the next room had taken phone video of the encounter. Jerry's supervisor and the company's HR
specialist were beside themselves with horror!
The delicate leftist sensibilities of management were inflamed with politically
charged plasma of social justice.
Tit for tat, push for shove,
it resulted in the termination of Jerry's 14-year career with a successful
company and it resulted in suspension of one of his friends. Robert, the black man in the group, was never
called in to the office. He was never
questioned or charged for his participation in this 'unholy event'. After
all, his 'protected status' left him
immune from corporate prosecution. To
his credit, he quit his job in protest for his friends.
Jerry had been found guilty of
'hate speech' and in today's world of
social and political correctness there is no appeal and there can be no
forgiveness for the ultimate in horrible crimes ... that of 'hate speech'.
Especially horrible is uttering that single most thermonuclear word,
n!ggr! You'll notice that I have had to
alter spelling and construction of this 'most
horrible and unforgivable' of words.
What have we done? How have we
changed our very way of thinking? How
have we allowed our society to sink into the abyss of social conformity and
socialist mind sculpting? How can we
continue to live in the shadow of shame as a 'once
great' nation? How is it that
we are no longer the people once lauded as the standard bearer for the
world? However, whatever, whenever, we
have lost! Can we ever win again? That is the question.
I'm Max, and that's the way I see it!
