"So the proud to be zero crew are happy using and hearing racist, sexist homophobic language? Happy using outdated and offensive terms for people with disabilities? Happy to see the perpetuation of all forms of inequality and all on the basis that PC is seen as somehow wrong? " I never said i use racist or homophobic language did I ? I just don't beat about the bush if I have something to say I say it which doesn't mean I am racist or homophobic in any way . Where some people would make a good diplomat I certainly wouldn't as I am to blunt and to the point which in no way makes me a racist or homophobic thank you, Him | |||

" You do realise that they are just words!, I have a broad spectrum of friends and we all speak freely knowing we don't offend each other, if folk over hear us and become offended then it's their issue, I'm not openly offensive to "strangers" and conduct myself in a kind and courteous manner, but if your a cock I'll not even acknowledge you, if your offensive towards me then you best believe I'll win that. I'm not PC I'll treat you how you treat me, simples | |||

"Not pc at all. Say what i like if i believe it's right. Offence is taken not given. Never purposely go out to attack anyone verbally but I will stand my ground if someone as a go at me directly. I've proved it on here recently. No one speaks for me, I speak for myself and live or die by it. On that basis I'm 0 pc. But what i really mean is there is no such thing as pc imo. I will never be racist, sexiest or anythingist through choice not because it's considered pc. " | |||

"In real life about 2 on here zero apparently that also makes you a racist homophobic person lol Him" Tosh!!!!! My opinion is neither,, I'm very tolerant,,, but I have an opinion and if you ask for it I'll share,,, I don't change my opinion to suit the audience... To be racist is about intent,,,, Some people are ignorant or just plain not educated - their not racist,,, People who spout the racist card belittle the seriousness behind racism. Even institutional racism has intent behind it,,,, an example is the England cricket team,, we know Asians live and play cricket, but we have no Asian players,, as much as people say it's cultural it's not, it's intentionally preventing Asians playing for England, at some point during the journey towards playing for England someone has said "no your not for us" - intent.... | |||

"So the proud to be zero crew are happy using and hearing racist, sexist homophobic language? Happy using outdated and offensive terms for people with disabilities? Happy to see the perpetuation of all forms of inequality and all on the basis that PC is seen as somehow wrong? " Some comedians make a lot of money from using material like this. I (him) do think that a lot of people only get offended because they think they should be. I will be honest, yes I have laughed at inappropriate jokes and comments but at the same time I would stand up for someone being insulted or discriminated against. I suppose that makes me a 5. | |||

"I don't like the term politically correct, unless it is the mark of someone who says and does the 'right' things, whilst being a bigot on the inside." Well that's my point. PC is a very recent invention and there were plenty of us just got along fine without it. | |||

"I always think everybody is by nature anti xyz example if I'm walking down the street and 3 black/Asian guys are walking the other way I'm more nervous than if 3 white guys simply because I wasn't brought up round black or Asian guys but then that's different from being actively discriminatory " I was also brought up in a predominantly white area (it still is as anyone who comes up here will testify)...however, i'm no more nervous should I see folk with black or brown skin than I am with any other colour In regards to the OP, I'd say I can be a zero, but I won't tolerate hatred against others regarding colour, sexuality, disability or any other reason. I think the term PC is often used by those who get offended on everyone else's behalf Anyway...there was an Englishman, an Irishman, a Pakistani, a Jew, a Korean, a Somalian and a German trying to get into a really smart restaurant...the Maitre D said "I'm sorry you can't come in, you haven't got a Thai" | |||

"If you are a politically correct 10 then you are a racist or homophobic etc. Why because it means you agree with positive discrimination. Positive discrimination discriminates against the “norm” if favour of the disadvantaged. A truly PC person is in fact PC “blind”, in other words they do no see someone as disabled, coloured, their sexual orientation etc. they just see people. In reality nobody is totally PC we all have prejudice, but most do not allow such prejudice to interfere with their interactions with others. " | |||

"PC is just yet another label used by people and others to reason or justify an opinion. If your opinion on a subject appears to go with the flow, fit with traditional values and is supportive of minority groups in any shape or form, defending rights, or appearing to follow an ideology of live and let live - you're often labelled as being PC. If you disagree (for whatever reason) and challenge an opinion that fits any of the above? You're non-PC. Whatever happened to just having an opinion?

"So the proud to be zero crew are happy using and hearing racist, sexist homophobic language? Happy using outdated and offensive terms for people with disabilities? Happy to see the perpetuation of all forms of inequality and all on the basis that PC is seen as somehow wrong? " But I don't think that's the only choice. Where I object to pc is where it just drives racism, homophobia etc underground. Or when, whenever you want to say something, you have to tiptoe carefully in case someone sees offence where none was meant. (For example, Cumberbatch wanting to make a serious point about all non-white actors/actresses, but his point being totally lost because he used the wrong word.) Could we have a programme like Till Death nowadays? Or a song like Brother Louie or Power in the Darkness? On the weekend I had the piss taken out of me for offering my niece's husband the last potato. Obviously she meant it as a joke, but now my middle-class angst will make me worried that if I ever mention potatoes to him again, I'm doing it as a subtle, racist dig at the fact he's Irish. I just worry that being pc is the wrong battle, and we should instead be challenging peoples attitudes, which I find easier when they express them freely. When I lived in Bristol, there were regular discussions about changing street names, apologising and even paying compensation for our part in the slave trade. I used to think 'bollocks, what we need to do is to tackle low educational attainment of all disadvantaged kids, give them the means to live a better life, not pat some of them on the head and bung them a few quid to assuage our misplaced guilt. | |||

Hey guys, look- millions of Asians/Africans/EEs coming soon, dare complain + you will be charged with racism. see the pc trolls on this thread- one persons 'cultural value' is another's ' prejudice'.

" Godwin's Law - any online discussion will eventually end up with the Nazi's featuring. Except on Fab, where there will be a nasty outbreak of Muslim bashing. " But more people will stand up, like on the Liverpool fc thread, that's what I find encouraging. Besides it's not just Muslim bashing, Christian's too - there's a lot of Bashing the Bishop that goes on on this site... | |||

" I work in a prison and some inmates have different dietary requirements, halal meat for example. They're in prison, they've commited a crime, shouldn't have any rights. Does that make me un PC? In America that would make you govenor or senator or whatever they have! Over here it makes you right and everybody thinks it just nobody says it Everybody doesn't think it. ta da! Perfect example. Halal is not a dietry requirement. Its a dietry I f***ing want. Perfect example of what? I think you will find that it's not a want but based on faith/ belief. I would hope people would respect my dietary requirement of veggie food but it's not baed in any faith or religion just moral grounds. Maybe too PC but oh well its not a requirement at all. There not allergic to it. They'd just like it. Im sure many prisoners want lobster thermododre but they shouldn't get it. " Is it worth getting angry about? What difference does it really make? | |||

"Are you in real life or just on here for fear of being branded.? It's a long shot but I be honest I been watching all the PC nonsense on here last month and it makes me giggle. So on a scale of 1 - 10 10 being very PC what are you.? You don't have to reveal much Take the test fabbers. OP goes first 4" I try not to be offensive but I do say what I mean. There are some situations where I feel being PC is reasonable and sensitive to the feelings of others and other situations in which I believe it's ridiculous pandering and over-sensitive bullshit. I behave accordingly. Someone I know, who has a somewhat fluid gender identity, refuses to choose a personal pronoun and demands others use zhe (a PC cross between she and he). That's a step too far for me. I'll refer to them in the way that is the best guess on any given day and they can correct me if I'm wrong. | |||

"I'd like to think I'm pretty PC, however, I grew up where certain words is spastics and Mongols where perfectly acceptable words. I like to think I'm reasonably educated but I'm never going to get it right, what with the terminology changing all the time. Surely its about intent, you can tell if someone is being insulting or whether they genuinely don't know. My mum uses the word coloured, she's not being racist, she's 70 and its the word she grew up with and finds it hard to change. " ^ this. I get it wrong sometimes, partly for this reason. Once I know, I'll change what I do or say that isn't considered appropriate. Some words used when I was growing up are taboo now. The same goes for language across different regions sometimes. | |||

"Not being racist, homophobic, or bigoted isn't political correctness, it's just common decency." Exactly. But some do their MA in PC and do so much damage to the same who they purport to 'protect'. I think that so patronising to those people | |||

"What does being PC mean?" It was before your time It started with the 8088 then the 8086 Political correctness. It means, "don't mention the war" | |||
