Political Correctness

[Athene]

You're a bit behind with the times, people of colour is already considered racist by people, check out this message board of diversityINC

That's the problem with political correctness. Ordinary folks going about their everyday lives cannot keep up with the preferred nomenclature of consciousness raising minority activists. Just with respect to race, the list of what whites are "allowed" to say and not say gets constantly revised. Why are there groups called the United Negro College Fund and National Association for the Advancement of Colored People but it is racist for a white guy to refer to people with Sub-Saharan ancestors as negro or colored?

  
People are free to use whatever terms they wish, even derogatory ones. It seems that what you actually have an issue with, is others having the freedom to respond using the terms that they wish.
