Political Correctness Really is Getting Insane

In the News

A town in U.K. that happens to have the name "White" has been called "white supremacist" if they don't change it.

Smh. It's white because the houses are white, and Europeans aren't the only ones with pale/tan/light/white (how you may define the color's lightness) as other races (Asians) have light skin too.

Politicians really aren't helping it.

I agree with you. Political correctness has changed school names, roads etc but it’s our history. We haven’t been a nation of kindness in the past!

There is no nation on earth that has been kind in the past though. We all have history we wish we could erase, or had never happened but hopefully we can learn from it. A shame that many countries do not and still run a regime where their people live in poverty and oppression.

It's like the name "white" is triggering for some people and they seem as though they want it banned, which makes no sense.

Barry White, whom was an amazing African singer had "White" as his surname and he passed away long ago, but even the deceased to these people don't matter as long as they want their agenda to take effect. And there's Jack Black who's European and has "Black" as his surname, it's really no big deal.

Also, a Nigerian film has been declined due to the use of the English language...

Like the saying goes: "Damned if you do, damned if you don't." 😐

Wouldn't be surprised. They're obsessed with the idea of calling everything and everyone "white" and "black". I find it silly and condescending if I'd be referred as "white", that's a color at best. Not a race.

🤣 that’s actually ridiculous.... same as Kleenex not being allowed “man sized“ tissues... should Manchester be changing it’s name too? 🤔 I’m surprised “Black Country” is still allowed to be called that...
