NEVER TOLERATE TYRANNY!....Conservative voices from the GRASSROOTS.

Political Correctness ! The Communal Tyranny !!!

Political Correctness (PC) is the communal tyranny that erupted in the 1980s.
It was a
spontaneous declaration that particular ideas, expressions and
behaviour, which
were then legal,
should be forbidden by law, and people who transgressed
should be punished. (see Newspeak) It started
with a few voices but grew in
popularity until it became unwritten and written law within the
community.
With those who were publicly declared as being not politically correct becoming the
object of
persecution
by the mob, if not prosecution by the state.
Once a community embraces tyranny the penalties can only grow in severity.

What Is Political Correctness?
Political Correctness (PC) is the communal tyranny that erupted in the 1980s. It
was a
spontaneous declaration that particular ideas, expressions and
behaviour, which
were then legal, should be forbidden by law, and people who transgressed
should
be punished. (see Newspeak)

It started with a few voices but grew in popularity until it became
unwritten
and written law within the community. With those who were publicly
declared as
being not politically correct becoming the object of persecution by the
mob, if
not prosecution by the
state
.

The Odious Nature Of Political Correctness
To attempt to point out the odious nature of Political
Correctness is to restate the crucial importance of plain speaking,
freedom of
choice and freedom of speech; these are the community's safe-guards
against the
imposition of tyranny, indeed their absence is tyranny (see "On
Liberty
",
Chapter

II
, by J.S.
Mill
).
Which is why any such restrictions on expression such as those invoked
by the
laws of libel, slander and public decency, are grave matters to be
decided by
common law methodology; not by the dictates of the mob.

Clear Inspiration For Political Correctness
The declared rational of this tyranny is to prevent people being
offended; to compel everyone to avoid using words or behaviour
that may
upset homosexuals, women, non-whites, the crippled, the stupid, the fat
or the
ugly. This reveals not only its absurdity but its inspiration. The set
of values
that are detested are those held by the previous generation (those who
fought
the Second World War), which is why the terms niggers, coons, dagos,
wogs,
poofs, spastics
and sheilas, have become heresy, for, in an
act of
infantile rebellion, their subject have become revered by the new
generation.
Political Correctness is merely the resentment of spoilt children
directed
against their parent's values.

The Origins Of Political Correctness
A community declines when the majority of its citizens become selfish, and
under
this influence it slowly dismantles all the restraints upon
self-indulgence
established by manners, customs, beliefs and law: tradition. (See the
law of reverse civilization)
As
each subsequent generation of selfish citizens inherits control of the
community, it takes its opportunity to abandon more of the irksome
restraints
that genius and wisdom had installed. The proponents of this social
demolition
achieve their irrational purpose by publicly embracing
absurdity
through slogans while vilifying any who do not support their stance. The
purpose
of the slogan is to enshrine irrational fears, or fancies, as truth
through the
use of presumptuous words, so public pronouncement:

  • Dissembles the real nature of the claim
  • Identifies any dissenters as enemies of the truth
  • Acts as an excuse for any crimes committed in its name

For example the slogan Australia is Multicultural is a claim that:

  • Different cultures are compatible.
  • People who contradict this claim are blinded by prejudice against other cultures.
  • People who contradict this claim are trouble-making bigots, which makes them enemies of the community, if not humanity, and deserving
    persecution.

All of which is an attack upon truth, clear thinking and plain speaking.

From Bourgeois To Racist
Naturally as the restraints shrink the rebellion grows ever more extreme in nature. When the author
of
Animal Farm wrote an article in 1946 about the pleasures of a
rose
garden, he was criticised for being bourgeois. George Orwell
mentions
this in his essay A Good Word For The Vicar Of Bray, published in
the
Tribune, 1946. The term bourgeois was then a popular
slogan
meaning having humdrum middle class ideas— The Oxford English
Dictionary
3rd Edition, 1938 — which is just a blatant attack upon
tradition.

Outright Assault Upon Tradition
Now, in the late 1990s, the results of being bourgeois (retaining traditional notions),
is being
labelled racist, sexist etc. and risk losing your job, your reputation,
being
jostled in the street, being subject to judicial penalty and death
threats. And
it is this very extremity of reaction that has won media attention and
the name
Political Correctness, though the reaction will become even more
unpleasant with the next generation.

Parental Values Always Attacked
The inevitable scapegoat for people impatient of restraint must always be parents, because
these are society's agents for teaching private restraint. So the
cherished
notions of the parents are always subject to attack by their maturing
offspring.
This resentment of tradition was observed in his own civilization by
Polybius
(c. 200-118 BC), the Greek historian, who said:

"For every democracy which has enjoyed prosperity for a considerable period first develops through its nature an attitude of discontent
towards the
existing order,.."

Tyranny Grows
Once a community embraces tyranny the penalties can only grow in severity. This gradual increase is easily
seen by the
example of Toastmasters.

As the members of the club became more concerned about the delights of
socializing and less concerned about the disciplines of public speaking,
they
became more intolerant of citizens who were earnest about learning the
art of
rhetoric. Once those members who did their duty by truthfully pointing
out the
shortcomings in another member's performance were just labeled as
negative or discouraging; later this became a risk of
being
socially ostracized. Now (since 1998) unpopularity can result in being
permanently ejected from the club by a majority vote.

Australian Experience Of PC Tyranny
In my country the tyranny erupted with the persecution of public figures such as Arthur Tunstall
for
uttering truths that had become unpopular, either directly in a speech,
or
indirectly by telling jokes. The maiden

speech
of the Federal Member of Parliament for Ipswich contained so
many
disliked truths that the rabble escalated the ferocity of their attack
and
extended them to her supporters, introducing terror into Australian
politics.
Anyone who watched the TV coverage (1997/8) of Pauline Hanson's
political
campaign will have seen the nature of her opponents; a throng who looked
and
behaved more like barbarians than citizens of a civilized community. And
any mob
that chants "Burn the witch" (when she spoke outside an Ipswich
hall
after she had been refused entry) leaves no doubt as to their intent or
character.

Widespread Throughout The Community
Revealing the extent of the mob's support, their sentiments (suitably refined) were
enthusiastically echoed by the media and the administration. And in an
unprecedented act of cooperation, all the political parties conspired to
eject
Ms Hanson from the federal parliament in the election of October 3rd
1998. This
was revealed by the how-to-vote cards of the parties contesting the seat
of
Blaire, which all placed Ms Hanson last. This was a public admission by
both the
major parties that they would rather risk losing the election than allow
this
forthright woman to keep her seat in parliament.

International Experience Of PC Tyranny
And it is not just in Australia but in every western democratic country popular
demands have
been made for restrictions on expression. Bowing to the clamour of the
electorate, politicians in these countries have enacted absurd laws.
The
Australian community wide declaration of irrational hatred displayed by
the
persecution of Pauline Hanson, paralleled the Canadian
experience
of Paul Fromm, director of the Canadian Association
for Free
Expression Inc.
, and the examples of the national
soccer coach

of England and a prominent public
servant
in Washington, USA confirm that the hysteria is everywhere.

The Inevitable Result Of Political Correctness
By using the excuse of not upsetting anyone, the politically correct are
demanding that
people behave like the fool who would please everyone; that everyone
must become
such a fool! All must accept the notions of the Politically Correct as
truth, or
else! This is the same mentality that inspired the Inquisition and
forced
Galileo to recant;
the same mentality that inspired the Nazis and obtained the Holocaust.
Once
expression gets placed in a straitjacket of official truth, then the
madness
that occurs in all totalitarian states is obtained. Life, in private and
public,
becomes a meaningless charade where delusion thrives and terror rules.

Examples Of Denying Freedom Of Speech
Evidence of this effect is amply demonstrated by the Soviets, who embraced Political
Correctness
with the Communist Revolution. The lumbering, pompous, impoverished,
humourless
monster this Nation became is now History. And it should be remembered
that in
1914 Tsarist Russia was considered by Edmund Cars, a French economist
who then
published a book about the subject, to be an economic giant set to
overshadow
Europe. The SBS television program "What Ever Happened To Russia",
which
was broadcast at 8.30 pm on 25th August 1994, detailed the terrible
effect the
Bolshevik's oppression had on their empire. And SBS further detailed the

terrible crimes inflicted upon the Russians by their leader Stalin, in
the
series "Blood On The Snow" broadcast in March 1999.

An Old Witness
Helen, a member of Parramatta writers club in 1992, was a citizen of Kiev during the Red Terror, and described
living
with official truth and the constant threat of arrest. Knowing the
content of
the latest party newspaper was critical to avoiding internment, as
public
contradiction, either directly or indirectly, meant denouncement to the
KGB. If
you complained about being hungry when food shortages were not
officially
recognized, then you became an enemy of the state. If you failed to
praise a
Soviet hero, or praised an ex-hero, then again your fate was sealed. The
need to
be politically correct dominated all conversation and behaviour, as
failure
meant drastic penalty. Uncertainty and fear pervaded everything, nobody
could be
sure that an official request to visit Party headquarters meant
imprisonment,
torture, death, public reward or nothing important.

Living with such a terrible handicap naturally destroyed all spontaneity of thought or action, rendering the whole community mad. The awful effect
this had
upon Helen's sanity was made clear when she escaped to Australia. Here
she
encountered the free press, which had an unpleasant impact upon her. One
day she
read The Australian newspaper which happened to carry two
separate
articles about Patrick White, one praising, the other denigrating, this
well
known writer. Poor Helen found herself turning from one to the other,
which was
she to repeat as correct? She nearly had a nervous breakdown.

Political Correctness Is Social Dementia
Unless plain speaking is allowed, clear thinking is denied. There can be no good
reason for
denying freedom of expression, there is no case to rebut, only the empty
slogans
of people inspired by selfishness and unrestrained by morality. The
proponents
of this nonsense neither understand the implications of what they say,
nor why
they are saying it: they are explained" target="_blank" href="http://www.ourcivilisation.com/mor....

Social Decline Grows Worse With Each Generation
Political Correctness is part of the social decline that
generation by generation makes public behaviour less restrained and less

rational. http://www.ourcivilisation.com/pc.htm
