It is impossible in this day and age to say something without offending people, and by people I mean pussies, sissies, losers whatever they're called cause you can fit that description for all sjws, politically correct, vegans, feminists etc. I hope when Trump becomes prez these people will grow a pair and realise you can't change the world, you adapt to it and a good start would be to harden the **** up and shut the **** up. Will these people ever be able to pull their heads out of their asses?

Why are there Vegans in this list, they have nothing to do with SJW / PC / Feminazis oO Also a sane Feminist should be totally fine too, it's just the crazy Feminazis that really are a problem

People do get offended by everything nowadays, just like how you TC get offended that others get offended by things you don't get offended by.

This is why we have to get out and vote for Trump. If Hillary wins the country will be lost to the SJW's and free speech will soon be a crime if you offend anyone.

@GhostHawk196:

Sounds like you're too sensitive and unwilling to adapt to the world being offended by everything. ? Learn to listen to your own advice before you tell people to take it.

I find it that those who are so opposed to SJW culture tend to be PC police themselves quite often.

Let us not forget it was the crank Sargon of Akkad. Who tried to ban courses in university that he didnt like using faulty logic.

Yeah. It is pretty sad.

Personally, I am too busy enjoying games to notice some political agenda, be it one way or the other. I aint trying to shoehorn my agenda into everything. Granted, a good ammount of them are hopefully Poes, but with how prevalent and common the behaviour is. I am starting to suspect some of them are actually serious.

The irony of this repeated thread shows its head again. The anti-PC people are more pro Political Correctness than they even know and its hilarious. As usual, like D. Trump, they are overly sensitive to criticism and cannot handle views that they do not share. The anti-PC people are the first set of folks that would engage in censorship and limited free speech. This is because in their juvenile perspective, any view that they don't share should not be expressed because they are offended by contrasting views of their own. The attack of the manbabies.

Quit being an asshole, TS, and you don't have anything to worry about. If assholes were just a little bit respectful of other people, PC culture wouldn't be where it's at today. The world doesn't revolve around you.

You posted this exact same thread a few days ago.

You're the one who needs to "grow a pair" TC. Your shitty bitter ramblings are far more annoying then anything an "SJW" could ever say.

Officious? Self righteous? Hypocritical? Have you ever looked at yourself and the whole anti-PC movement? They are the embodiment of those traits. Calling you out for your own crap, doesnt make us any of those. I dont think any of us dont subscribe to the SJW movement either. The world aint black and white, just because we dislike the so called anti-PC crowd doesnt mean we side with the SJWs.

And while I am at it, you wont be missed.

Edit: Its pretty funny too, how you are seemingly leaving because people dont conform to your views. Sounds to me like you want a...

...Safe Space.

I do think people get way too easily offended about a lot of stuff, but there's no way in hell TC isn't a troll.

Lol.

"Libel" has nothing to do with being offended. Libel is about lying about people.

I don't know exactly what Trump's ideas for that were, but tougher laws to stop lying, as long as you properly demonstrate your case, don't seem inherently bad. The media does lie it's ass off quite a lot of the time.

When CNN just add the word "racial" to Trump's statement about profiling (when he didn't mention race at all) purely because they wanted to race-bait, we would all be far better off if there was a punishment for them doing that.

It's not people getting offended that's a problem. Most people get offended by things.

The problem is people who think the fact that they're offended means that other people have to adjust their behaviour, especially when that behaviour is in the form of some public service, expression or creation (because you'll therefore be depriving everyone else of it). We live in an age of mass intolerance where whole generations of people just haven't been taught the value of tolerating things you dislike so that other people will return the favour.

The principle is remarkably simple: If you can ignore something, don't complain about it. The only things you should ever be complaining about are the ones you can't avoid. That's the social contract. If people just followed that, the world works so much better.

You should probably take a note from the TC and "harden up" and "grow a pair."

Donald Trump is the guy who threatened to sue The Onion over a joke. He is the same guy who has blacklisted a lot of media for not singing sunshine and rainbows on him. It is pretty clear where he would be going with these anti libel laws. He would try to make the entirety of America his safe space, and it isnt only the media he wants to censor either, he wants to censor the internet too. And there was nothing legally wrong with adding racial infront of profiling. Its called paraphrasing. Hardly anything that should be illegal.

We have seen these anti libel pushing in the past. The end results have always been the same. "It is untrue because I dont like it."

Sounds like the anti-PC crowd has been severely triggered. Make sure they get a safe space being thin skinned and all.

To the TC: Trying to stop "political correctness" is not an open invitation for you to act like a jerk and insult people unprovoked. You want to do that--there's plenty of other sites out there, but this isn't one of them.
