Liberal University: Phrase ‘Politically Correct' No Longer Politically Correct

In an astounding upstaging of UW-BerkeleyMadison, UW-Milwaukee has just taken the lead in progressive language. Professor Warren Scherer and the university's "Just Words" campaign state that the phrase "politically correct" is no longer ... erm ... politically correct.

They say using “politically correct” or “PC” (which can also be interpreted as “personal computer”) has “become a way to deflect [and say] that people are being too sensitive and police language”
(This applies, of course, only when the speaker in question does not possess a politically correct outlook.)

Progressive thinkers should be ready to revise all dokuments immediately pending Party notice of the revised acceptable terminology. Rumors from Party HQ and the bookies indicate that the leading candidate phrases are "apolitically incorrect" (3 to 1 odds), "claptrap" (2 to 1) and the old but ever-popular "keep your butthurt to yourself, you'll need it when I'm through with you" (16 to 1).

Don't choose PC, choose Apple Mac! After all, all of our Komrades in the left use one, why not us?

Oh, we're not talking about computers? Well, alrighty then.

Well, we just call it what we've been calling it - Newspeak! And remember, Newspeak displaces Oldspeak with it's doubleplusgood bellyfeel, plusgood thought, tripleplusungood thoughtcrime, quadrupleplusgood statebellyfeel.

Progfessor Warren Scherer is performing a variant of the selfless act of "linguistic reclamation" as defined HERE:

"Linguistic reclamation is the reappropriation of a pejorative epithet by its target, to turn an insult into a positive term and deny others the ability to define it."

PC is now Liberal. If it is not Liberal, it is bad.

There is some confusion, How do you tell the difference between Politically Correct and Pure Crap? These are not interchangeable in most cases!

And Rush Limbaugh. Rush is an unapologetic user of all devices Apple. Of course, he's unapologetic about most things!

But the UW Milwaukee and the UW Madison both have one microagression flying over their administration buildings; the American flag. I say that we demand that they take those flags down and put up a Soviet flag instead. Because it will show correctness. And, we need Russian and Chinese troops to replace the campus police because they show "brutality" as well as to cleanse the campii of unpure thought. That will make things perfect.

Ole Miss just ordered the removal of the State flag of Mississippi, to remove the image of the oppressive Confederacy embedded in the flag of the state in which they are located and named for. Next Tuesday, here we come!

FLOORWARD!

Ivan, it is obviously time to hoist the Gonzales Flag over that benighted land and, um, do what it says. That is, liberate the oppressed masses of Mississippi from their money land livelihoods oppression.

We assemble at the Chevron in Waskom tomorrow morning (coffee, donuts and breakfast burritos will be available) and roll eastward on I-20 until the major banks Ole Miss coeds oppressed masses are in our hands! For the Empire of Tejas, forward!
