PC Codewords and phrases offend me. (are there any white slurs that are allowed to offend?...I doubt it....cracker and honkey...are sorta lame let’s face it)
ok....
mysoginist......I hate that word....it offends me..invented by some angry urban gal who couldn’t keep a boyfriend so she whines about it in her book
religion of peace......a lie....it offends me
barefoot and pregnant.....like what’s wrong with that?....ringworms maybe
sexist.......oh gawd!
bigot.........where are they pray tell?
racist.........the new scarlet letter
prejudiced..........those who use don’t even know what it means
anti-semite......anti-Jewish....is much more accurate...not really a PC tool unless Morris Dees or Abe Foxman is using it...and yes....there are real bogeyman out there on this one....exterminators...still, a messed up phrase from the getgo
environmentally sensitive........which means I’m jealous I’m not rich enough to own a Hummer or guilty I do
open minded..........an empty one usually
progressive........ain’t nothing progressive about Godless Bolsheviks
hater..........puhlease.....what’s wrong with a strong dislike?
donor husband..........huh?
homophobic..........no, I just think they are all neurotic
moderate.......really a lib
neocon.........used to be a lib....a civil rights type who grew to hate the very crap they created....now they are doing the same shite to conservatism....(see Wideawakes)
woman’s rights/reproductive rights/choice...........infanticide.....why not just call it baby murdering for birth control that the pill was supposed to fix but “we’re too lazy to remember to take the damn things” so we kill babies instead...makes sense to me
sexual orientation......”I’m a homosexual”
sexual preference.....what positions I prefer...to me anyhow
civil rights.......lord.....this one sure got some mileage
tolerance.....you must not complain if I’m a pedophile....see *hater and *civil rights
multicultural........this really means any culture is better than the “white” one....whatever that really is(?)
afrocentric........this means the Egyptians were really black...even that lying Greek beyatch Cleopatra
diversity.......I may hate(sorry I’m hater don’t ya know) this one the worst......like something is inherently wrong and inferior about homogeneous unless it’s non-white homogeneous then it’s nirvana....the goal really
victimized..........isn’t everyone?....it’s called life
nation building..........so foolish...a lesson we haven’t learned
kinder and gentler sex......maybe the myth of all myths and sure coined by someone never married...they are softer and prettier and God love em but kinder and gentler my arse.....they will cut your throat while you sleep if you rile them
meterosexual........can’t say for sure but it looks like most American men today under 35 are queer or French at least....we need to fix this soon
Maccaca's ♠ are still cool to hang out with.
You know we live in a topsy turvy world when saying the "N" word out loud gets you fired but saying the "F" word doesn't.
I think that the tiptoeing around the "N" word, even calling it the "N" word, is stupid.
Still I won't write it here, because it will get me banned.
But I just said it aloud at home 25 times. May the word police come find me here at 11:05 PM PST.
How about “white boy” or “cracker” no? Those are OK right?
I just fired off an email to Harris regarding the misleading example regarding Rush Limbaugh. I gave them the original quote by Teddy Kennedy, the citation, and even the dang Youtube link to him making the comment.
“The ony thing that offends me is when people carelessly curse around children. Can they not see the kids right in front of them.”
I agree! And the crude bumper stickers for all to see, young and old.
I find the words “Homophobia” and “islamophobia” offensive.
Phobias are irrational fears and we treat all phobics sympathetically as we accept that their phobias are involuntary.
not so in the case of so-called “homophobics” or Islamophobics”.
Neither dislike is based on anything irrational, and neither are tolerated by the left. Therefore , those using the terms are bigoted. They are being judgemental and intolerant of the rational choices of others.
Now that is a good list. I don’t think most people have even thought to be offended at these words because they haven’t been told to be offended by the MSM.

Family fumes over councilman’s ‘hate letter’
The mother of a Cleveland teen charged with drug trafficking accuses Cleveland City Councilman Mike Polensek of threatening her son in letter that refers to the 18-year-old as a “crack dealing piece of trash” and closes with “go to jail or the cemetery soon.”
...Winston’s mother, Tonya Lewis, said she plans to speak to her attorney, former city councilman George Forbes, about filing a lawsuit against Polensek. She said she also has written a letter to black activist Al Sharpton.
...She also said he referred to Winston as “dumber than mud,” which she considers a racist remark.
Let me repeat that... she considers “DUMBER THAN MUD” to be a racist remark. Why?. Because mud is BLACK AND DIRTY!. Sheesh!.

They didn’t include the word that makes my blood boil most: “heterosexist”.
Radical feminism and the homosexual agenda rolled into one.
The most offensive word in the history of the world is Whitey.
this article is wrong and all the freepers are wrong.....
why is anyone discussing the “n” word....
it is dead!!!! the stupid (”n” aa “c” p) had a funeral for the “n” word recently....
please do NOT even use the “n” word niggardly!!!!
Excellent point.
So much of this is “inside baseball”, it’s not funny.
Don’t insult my little bit
of intelligence with words like:
Walk behind lawn mower= PUSH
Pre-owned Cars= USED
Gay= queer, there ain’t nothing gay about it.
Disagree. The most important info is that 64% don't think speech (even offensive speech) should be regulated.
How about DEMOCRAT
