 Talking about how race ties in with right wing talking points?
 Politically incorrect.
 Saying Obama created ISIS? Politically correct.
 Telling the truth: the previous administration stomping all over oil country, policy in Iraq and John McCain helping to fund them created ISIS? Politically incorrect.
  Mentioning that, yes, unlike all those invisible hordes of happy Muslims cheering on 9/11 in Jersey, there have been people encouraging, cheering on, terrorism?
  Politically incorrect.
  Just like it’s politically correct to mention how many in this country helped, enabled and inspired terrorists like Eric Rudolph.
 Claiming only the right was targeted by the IRS during the election? Politically correct. Mentioning all groups came under scrutiny and only a leftward group lost its tax free status? Politically incorrect. Mentioning assessing if any of these groups these groups fit the criteria was their damn job? Politically incorrect.
 Just like even whispering that inspiring people to hate to the point of murder should mean you are responsible for your words is politically incorrect. Only the right decides who has any “personal responsibility,” and it’s never anyone encouraging someone to do their dirty work for them if the action they’ve decided to take serves to terrorize those you don’t agree with, or like.
 In their version of The Godfather, the Godfather is a saint who was simply using his free speech when he encourages the hit.
 ”Black lives matter?”
 Politically incorrect. We should be saying “all lives matter.”
 Except you don’t believe “all lives matter.” You believe if someone thinks all they have to do is just declare they feel threatened then they should have a right to commit murder. You believe the state should be able to make up stories about massive amounts of WMD, and then mock soldiers searching for it, some who died searching for it. You believe the heroism of a soldier is less worth honoring, the loss of his life less of a concern, if he was shot outside Planned Parenthood, and then died after going back in to warn people. But if someone dares to question a war then, Mr. Phony, you claim we dishonor all those who have died.
 There’s plenty of evidence, including how abandoning programs that help mothers and their infants, your don’t give a shit about “lives.” You care about control, and silencing anyone who dares to disagree with you, who challenges your own brand of political correctness.

You care about control, and silencing anyone who dares to disagree with you with your own brand of political correctness. And if anything they believe in might save lives, well, your brand of political correctness is more important.
 ”Libtards?” “Pinheads?” Do you even have the minimal amount of brain matter it would require to understand that’s an attempt to support the politically correct stance that only you get to toss out insults? How Donald Trump-ian of you.
 Sigh. There I go being “politically incorrect” again.
 The most politically correct thing about the right is how they demand we stop political correctness out of one side of their mouth, while demanding their own brand of political correctness out of the other.
