Default Re: Oft times PC bullshit goes too far

Ah, but you see it as an either/or, and it's not.

I think it would be just as dumb to get up in arms because the unedited photo was used and childern were "exposed" to a picture of an individual with a cigarette.

Look - the picture was retouched because of the change in attitudes toward smoking. I don't see that as a bad thing.

There are truly significant issues where the concept of "PC" runs amuck. Banning a book from a school library because it uses the N word, or banning a book from a school library because it includes references to non-traditional families* are just two examples - there are many, many more.

Those are worth debating. This is simply moronic. To clarify, getting your panties in a knot over this one - whether the picture is retouched or not - should qualify people for aid from the "Get A Clue Foundation."



* While the "traditional" attacks on political correctness wouldn't include the second example, it's just as much a PC issue as the other.
