Politically Correct IDIOTS (Steve Martin/Carrie Fisher tweet)
Ok I got it. It seems to me though, that white men are more likely to get attacked for being politically incorrect, while women and minorities will often get a free pass.

I agree that the joke this thread was about wasn't offensive at all and people completely overreacted to it but the thread title and subsequent posts are ridiculous; i mean "Ive a feeling she wasnt "politically correct" " as if being 'politically correct' whatever that means is some horrible thing? And all from old white guys who miss the good old days?
This should've been a post in the Chill Club or a Shout with a few responses, the fact that this is a thread with such an insulting title is hilarious.
Anyway: Camo/Cosmic 2016
"Old white guys that miss the good old days"? You, Ash, and Iro obviously felt slighted by my thread title.

The majority of your post was about All In The Family not being able to air today which is a show about an old white guy missing the good old days. Was i wrong?
Hey! I'm white!

Nah, i'm with you it wasn't offensive at all, i said that already. I was talking about the premise/thread title and following horrible posts equating this incident to the whole idea of political correctness.
I really don't care as much as i'd imagine you think i do; i just think this is a horrible thread.

Political correctness has bent to the idiotic, SJW warriors are worthless, period. They just make talk, and wont shut up. The internet is loaded with them.

Allow me to introduce you to an obscure little show called Family Guy.
Yeah, well, look where people who want to go back to the "good" old days have gotten us. Deliberately going backwards doesn't seem like evolution to me.
I think it's just an age thing, at least based on my experiences.
Maybe it's because I am a white male, but I am uncomfortable when someone judges someone and assumes they are a certain way because of their race (or gender)

Hey, if anyone thought Steve Martins post was insulting or degrading in any way about Carrie Fisher, then the thread title applies. If youre offended but agree with the point, then get thick skin. THATs the problem more than if people agree or not, get some thick skin because if you didnt agree with Marttins post then youd probably be one of the complainers.

Also, what do you think the W in SJW stands for?
Family Guy is a cartoon. All in the Family is more "grounded into reality", I dont know how else to say it to you. Just because theyre both fiction doesnt mean both are impossible, AITF was extremely realistic, and this comparison is weak.
We are de-evolving in the sense where were sensitive for the wrong reasons, and get misled more than what a supposed "age of information" should allow. Just because someone wails theres an injustice done doesnt mean there actually was one. Its like the old west and the ruthless stupid mob now have smartphones.

I'd just rather you didn't go down this road.
Cant people talk plainly to the masses? Right now, no. The masses would like to believe itself wise beyond its years because theyve the super information highway at their fingertips, but bad judgement isnt something some website can undo.
Given the context of everything you've posted in this thread (including the fact that it got made in the first place), how am I supposed to take your suggestion to "get thick skin" seriously?
