Today on the Facetubes:
No, darling, you are not politically incorrect if you say those things. You may, however, be an asshole if you say them as a way to consolidate your tribal membership to the exclusion of Those People. And we all know about Those People, don’t we?
Those People are queer, aren’t they? Or bitches, or chinks, or towel-heads, or niggers—aren’t they?
Those People all up in your face saying you ought to be more respectful of them and their so-called humanity.
Those People who make you so angry because they think that their “lifestyle” or “culture” or “religion” deserves some kind of special rights.
Those People who get their precious feelings hurt if you just say what everyone is thinking.
But no, darling, your saying “Merry Christmas” or “God bless the USA” is not why we might be calling you politically incorrect. Let me know if you figure it out.
Nailed it.
