Political correctness in your nation?

Postby The Great Zedong Dynasty » Fri Nov 21, 2014 10:47 am

There's a new arrival of immigrants in town and you wanna speak their language and greet them. But a big shot politician who is notorious for being politically correct said "Well we have a set of rules and regulations for greeting new immigrants! Don't want to offend them now do you?" you just stand there and stare at him in disbelief and even disgust"

Has this ever happened in your nation that political correctness got out of control?

I choose the second definition of it. This meaning rule by virtue and not owning land to be allowed to vote or hold political office. Instead one is required to serve time in the military (currently 6 years)

In Drawkland there is very little political correctness and such. In fact, most citizens enjoy joking around about such matters, making what some would consider "racist" jokes, even though literally nobody involved is offended, even those at the blunt of the punchline.
So in short, political correctness really doesn't exist.

The same can be said about Saurisians (Saurians, Drakonians, Sslurids, Dwarves, and Serpens especially); political correctness is even the common butt of jokes at the hands of local comedians, especially in regards to its prevalence in the Federal Republics of Wellington and Vingaard.

But the Nazis won't perceive themselves as incorrect, will they? They always thought they were correct, or at least to believe their own lies. It might break character if you say IC that they're incorrect.

The opposite of correct = incorrect.

Courtesy and hospitality are important tenets in Darussian society, especially to the 'guests' as long as said guests are unarmed, even if they happen to be culturally inferior barbarians. Of course, when they decided to join the society as residing citizens it is naturally expected that they would strive to conform themselves to our superior culture, otherwise they'd be rejected and may be forcefully deported back.

Political correctness is advised until it gets extreme. The words gay, black, negro, Indian (for Native American), etc. are considered offensive in describing someone.

Only one politician has ever been the centre of the event you describe. He was summarily thrown into a Gulag, along with the immigrants, for promoting cultural degeneration.

Needless to say, political correctness has never gotten "out of control" in this manner since.

Being openly racist and rabidly xenophobic, Sidhae generally don't care much about offending outsiders, unless, of course, they are diplomatic dignitaries, in which case the Sidh representatives will merely refrain from using anti-human/anti-xeno slurs and expressions. There are, however, certain rules of political correctness within their own society to be observed.

For example, Sidhae tend to be somewhat sensitive about their genetic legacy and birth, it being a social faux pas to suggest that one might be born naturally, genetically flawed, improperly augmented or with the blood of a lesser race and hence less of a Sidh.

Other than that, Sidhae have a reputation among other species for being very blunt, direct and straightforward.
Freedom doesn't mean being able to do as one please, but rather not to do as one doesn't please.

A fool sees religion as the truth. A smart man sees religion as a lie. A ruler sees religion as a useful tool.

Political correctness is all but completely unheard of in Alizeria - people will say whatever they're thinking no matter how offensive foreigners find it.

Of course there are enclaves of urban liberals who would prefer a more politically correct society but these people are the exception not the norm and are often perceived as being deeply unpleasant people by most Alizerians.

Not causing avoidable offence isn't considered "political correctness" in Melvonia. It's encompassed by our definition of common courtesy, and to neglect it is the sign of an unsophisticated child.
