The brilliant Angelo Codevilla shows us the origin of political correctness

It got its power in 1920 when women got the right to vote.

"Comrade, your statement is factually incorrect."

And the speaker of that sentence often ended up with a bullet to the back of the neck. The end game of the Left.

And got its second wind, with something to do with a Coke can and hair. Ever since the Clarence Thomas nomination , PC has been on afterburners.

Time to kill the engine with reality.

"Comrade, your statement is factually incorrect." "Yes, it is. But it is politically correct."

I think that may be the best summation/definition I've ever read.

[SubMareener]

The Venona Intercepts documented this as a Communist concept.

See Yuri Bezmenov vids....the amount of brainwashing done by the left will require decades to overcome.

That is the origin of the term "politcal correctness", but the concept was well known by our founding fathers. John Adams warned us of it: “Be not intimidated...nor suffer yourselves to be wheedled out of your liberties by any pretense of politeness, delicacy, or decency. These, as they are often used, are but three different names for hypocrisy, chicanery and cowardice.” ― John Adams

That’s the polite version, we’ll stick with that.

“politically correct directive began word-of-mouth as a running joke”

the Communist/Left is just a joke, ridiculous ideas and not in dealing in reality.

[Sans-Culotte]

"Liberals don't care what you do as long as it's compulsory."

Good line.

[polymuser]

include heavily The Frankfurt School people that came from Germany in the 1940’s to commence their Marxist-socialist agenda in America — to change America slowly but steadily over time, by indoctrinating our children.

Their minions infiltrated Columbia U. (and who has studied THERE?) which became their HQ, then other teaching colleges, public schools, unions, the Democrat Party, media, and church leadership.

They brought us consensus building and sensitivity training.

[ReformationFan]

Reminds me of this line: “Liberalism: Ideas so good they must be enforced.”

[Ohioan]

Good quotes. As a Jeffersonian, I am glad that after leaving the Presidency, Jefferson & Adams renewed the friendship of their comparative youth. Thank the living God, that we have for the moment elected a leader who will not continue the PC lunacy of the last quarter century, which was destroying the Founders' legacy.

What was indeed a cynical joke in Communist Russia, has become a social litmus test in compulsion driven Clinton/Bush/Obama America.

“Bruce Jenner became female” is factually incorrect, but “Caitlyn Jenner” is female is politically correct.

I had practically a whole essay typed up and then screwed it up.

Anyway, here’s a short video. Want more? Search “Yuri Bezmenov” on Youtube.

Main goal of the originators of PC, destroy Western civilization to establish their utopia, which inevitably leads to genocide of dissenters. Undermine Western civilization by attacking:

1. Patriotism.
2. The Family.
3. Christianity.
4. Private Property.

Critical Theory and Polymorphous Perversity are the two main tools they use to divide and conquer.
