The point is that all this PC happy crappy aside, the same old attitudes and prejudices are right there in the kids because they're too smart to believe much of anything they are taught in school cuz they know it was written with a PC pen. What they know is what they see on the TV, in the hallway, and on the street.

PC is like putting lipstick on a corpse.

The corpse is the racist parents that pass on the ideas to their kids, perpetuating the stupidity.

I agree. My PC views regarding racism were completely "deflowered" by the time I hit junior high in 1979. Racism suddenly cut both ways. Prior to 1979, I was raised to assume only whites were capable of prejudice based on skin color. I guess you had to be born early enough to remember the civil rights movement to feel the sympathy my parents tried to instill in me.
