Therefore it seems that a lot of these people are invincible and can get away with a lot of things (before I get attacked, I'm not saying all of the people do this)because when challenged they can always play the racist/discrimination card which gives them incredible powers in this messed up society 
Political correctness = Positive Discrimination
And as far as I'm concerned this is just as bad because if you want to get rid of discrimination you need to get rid of the differences. Two wrongs don't make a right. You need to make people equal and not try to 'balance it out' as such with positive discrimination. Same rules for everyone. If not, you are imposing multiple standards which only highlights the differences and makes the problems worse. Equality is the way  |
I just wanted to say, I fully agree and an excellent post.
