“I watched the movie ‘Logan’s Run,there ain’t no ni–ers in it. I said, ‘White people ain’t planning for us to be here.’ That’s why we gotta make movies.”

This only proves that leftists cannot be trusted at all.

There going to have to replace the plaque left on the moon by Apollo 11. Oh...Neil Armstrong’s first words on stepping on the moon are going to tick them off.

[dadfly]

“One small step for man. One giant leap for mankind.”

so said the first man on the moon.

There are ELCA feminazi priestesses who want to change the Lord’s Prayer to that version!

And they may not like the word “Lord” either!

[KittyKares]

Even this recommendation is nuts: saying “queen and king” instead of saying “king and queen,”

I’m shaking my head in disbelief.

[SunkenCiv]

Is such a thing even possible? Yes, it is.

Time was, people could understand that Humanity and Mankind were the same. Mankind is shortened to just Man. A Man would refer to a Male.

It’s the English language. Some words are homonyms.

You can rename yourself every 20 years or so, like black people do, but it isn’t going to change who you are. We can also just keep changing language incessantly and I think we’ll end up only being able to quote Mao and not Shakespeare.

Good luck with the 1st moon landing.....but I’m sure there’s a plan to somehow cancel that as well

That contains two non-PC terms--maybe three if you include "giant":

"That's one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind."

Dear EU.
Shove it up ur arse.

Look, they want to shoot us all anyway, so why not just go down swinging and miss gender the whole lot of them

[griffin]

Lol! Blast from the past!

‘To boldly go where no man has gone before.’

They should ban the show because of the split infinitive.

If you are lining up against Bill Shatner. You should normally stop and check yourself. He might have tripped up here and there, but he is a very solid even handed guy with a great attitude towards life.

Shortly after Star Trek ended, Shatner might have gone all Tina Louise, lamenting being typecast. He had a REALLY down period reduced to doing Canadian supermarket ads. But the man just kept on plugging, showing up on time, and refusing to go away until things came around to him.

Granted, Captain Kirk and Star Trek is more enduring than Ginger Grant and Gilligan's Island, but young adults today might know him just as much as Denny Crane or the Priceline guy as Captain James Kirk. He NEVER eschewed the movie sequels, never afraid that he couldn't be Captain Kirk and TJ Hooker at the same time. He was willing to do self-parody in Airplane! and various TV ads (Oldsmobile comes to mind). Taking small parts did not make him a small man. Instead it made him larger than life.

Aren't guns great?--Denny Crane

Europe is being overrun by Muslims. You know, the folks who want to beat women with sticks, throw gays off rooftops, and knife passersby on sidewalks. And the EU is focused on some line from a 50-year-old TV show.

I'm not sure if "cognitive dissonance" is the right term here, maybe it's "can't see the forest for the trees"?

I don't know. What I do know is, everybody is freakin' insane these days. Worrying about stupid nothings and ignoring the very dangerous crap that is in front of our eyes.

[DesertRhino]

A lot of the other actors got jealous when he quickly emerged as the “star” of the show. Ankle biters....

It’s the English language. Some words are homonyms.

So are they homonymphobic?

(I guess their problem is really with God.)

With all these groups.....

.....it is, ultimately.

For Christians:

John 15:17-19
21st Century King James Version

17 These things I command you, that ye love one another.

18 “If the world hate you, ye know that it hated Me before it hated you.

19 If ye were of the world, the world would love his own; but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.
