Political Correctness & One Suggestion on how to Resist

Political correctness speech is a Machiavellian command and control device born of cultural Marxist presuppositions. Its purpose is the imposition of cultural Marxist uniformity in thought, speech and behavior. It seeks to alter all the previously Christian influenced rules — both formal and informal — that govern relations among peoples and institutions. It desires to change behavior, language, and even a person’s thoughts, and to a significant extent it has already accomplished its goals in the West. Keep in mind that whoever controls the language controls thought.

Political correctness often comes in the form of psychologized speech. It is psychologized because it often comes selling itself as “more sensitive, caring, and humane.” Indeed, one of the main carriers of the political correctness virus is the mental health industry. Psychologists, psychiatrists, counselors, and others who have (sometimes unwittingly) bought into the cultural Marxist political correct speech standards and so pass it on to their numberless clients.

Because political correctness seeks to constrain thought, speech, and behavior there is now a need more than ever to be precise, blunt and even sometimes crass in our language. When a people have been lulled to sleep by a witches words of enchantment the only thing that might wake them up are angular, razor sharp and barbed words used like a sledge hammer with the hopes that such angular, razor sharp and barbed words will come crashing through the ideological haze of those infected by political correctness in order to awaken them from their linguistically induced coma.
