very, very true. Politicial correctness has nothing whatsoever to do 
with politeness.

You wanna know what "political correctness" is about? I swear I'm mot 
making this up: You're no longer supposed to refer to "Attention Deficit 
Disorder" as such. Believe it or not, "political correctness"  now 
demands it be called "Attention Deficit *Hyperactivity* Disorder 
*WITHOUT Hyperactivity*". That's right, "hyperactivity without 
hyperactivity". Then they play off garbage like that as *somehow* being 
more friendly and polite, pretend their idiocy is actually being 
worthwhile instead of dragging us back to the damn puritan era, and then 
people actually *believe* their bullshit about "political correctness" 
actually having some connection to ethics.

But of course, ethics isn't something to be questioned, and so by 
(false) association, people are also scared shitless of questioning 
political correctness, too.
