As political correctness is annoying. I am very much a liberal when it comes to human rights and freedoms. Libertarians real liberals should stand up to free speech. If some Muslims along with Christian or whatever else believe in hateful things it must be denounced.

The political meaning of "liberal" has always been a person who opposes traditional order. And it's not a coincidence that libertarian sounds so similar.

Many countries in Europe have thought crime legislation and the "criminals" are also punished. I think it is important to distinguish between the real thing and social pressure. Political correctness is a symptom of a chronically ill society, but it's still just a symptom. Social pressure and ideological nepotism are real problems as well, but that's because liberal ideas are dominating so much, and because other ideas are banned and persecuted. In a world where traditionalists enjoyed full rights to practice their principles just as much as liberals do, social pressure and discrimination wouldn't be a problem in the same way but actually more of a positive thing in my opinion.

One of the most liberal people in American History was this great man:

I don't think there is a real contadiction on PC when it comes to muslims. These people are against social and institutional prejudice towards someone for having a certain religion, e.g. Islam, but at the same oppose views that may be common among the people they are defending. Defending a person's integrity is not the same as defending all his ideas.

Civilizational Plague
Doug Casey on Cultural Marxism


Nick Giambruno: What exactly are Cultural Marxists, and how are they, and political correctness, contributing to the decline of Western Civilization?

Doug Casey: Economic Marxism was intellectually debunked decades ago. With the collapse of the USSR, and radical changes in China, the man in the street became aware that the “intellectuals” were fools. And that is reinforced by the ongoing disasters in Cuba, North Korea, and Venezuela. So, since they recognize that there’s nothing to steal if they implement Marxian economic policies, most “intellectuals” no longer talk about them.

Cultural Marxism, however, is just as destructive. It divides people not into economic classes, but cultural classes. You’re no longer an individual—you’re part of a gender, or a race, or some other group. Undoubtedly one being discriminated against by white males who—not just coincidentally—are largely responsible for Western Civilization.

I despise the wave of “politically correct” thought that’s washed over the world like a tidal wave of raw sewage. I remember when I first heard the term used. I believe it was on Saturday Night Live in the early 80’s. At the time I thought it was a joke…

A word Cultural Marxists use a lot lately is diversity. “We’ve got to have diversity.” No, we don’t have to have diversity. There’s zero logical or moral reason why every room should have a quota of blacks, Hispanics, LGBT’s, women, or whatever. It’s extremely stupid to have people qualify for something based upon accidental characteristics. It encourages them to view themselves not as individuals, but members of a group. So it actually foments class warfare.

I'm a conservative. I'm against most non-traditional practices of a country. I believe in traditions and traditional ways. Political correctness to me takes everything traditional and puts it in a blender, then a microwave and the fucked up looking thing that comes out all bubbly and deformed, well that's political correctness to me.
