Censorship and Political Correctness

Commentary by Martin G. Collins

Political correctness, through the rewording of common phrases and words, often results in censorship. Hiding behind words remains a form of concealment, despite the guise of sensitivity. Telling the truth with fairness and consideration for others, even when it brings personal harm, stands as an act of bravery and a demonstration of character. This trend of censorship in what we write, say, and read is only the beginning of a broader movement already evident on social media platforms.

Political Correctness in Spades (Part Two)

Commentary by John W. Ritenbaugh (1932-2023)

Political correctness is the demand that you dismiss evidence witnessed with your own eyes or experiences, replacing it with a delusional, false narrative forced into your mind to compel conformity. It is a war on truth, often perpetrated by governments, media, political organizations, and sometimes employers. Those most vulnerable to this attack on truth are the ignorant, the fearful, and those seeking acceptance from others. An example of this delusion is evident in the hypocrisy surrounding Planned Parenthood's support for Black Lives Matter, where a tweeted photograph of a rally showed a woman with a sign reading, "Stop killing Black children," despite Planned Parenthood's historical and ongoing role in aborting a significant number of Black babies. This politically correct narrative obscures the reality that Planned Parenthood aborts 974 Black babies daily in America, totaling 355,510 in a year, compared to 258 Black men killed by police annually. The delusion pushed by progressive liberals through media ignores these truths, focusing instead on a political agenda where saving Black children seems irrelevant to Planned Parenthood's profit-driven motives.

Political Correctness in Spades (Part Three)

Commentary by John W. Ritenbaugh (1932-2023)

The change agents in America and elsewhere are striving to create cultures where no one ever feels out of the loop, embarrassed, or rejected, an impossible goal that many of them know cannot be achieved. Yet, they push for cultural change under the influence of satan, who seeks to destroy the nation and weaken the stability of entire areas by creating confusion and pitting neighbors against each other. A large percentage of the population has accepted these propositions, not out of belief, but out of uncertainty, acquiescing to the threatening mob. This is liberalism and progressivism in its raw form, where hypocrisy is acceptable under the guise of political correctness. In many school districts, efforts are made to secure governmental handouts for teachers' wage increases and new facilities, under the pretext of caring for children. Meanwhile, in North Carolina, particularly in Charlotte and Mecklenburg County, political forces are pushing for open bathroom access based on feelings of sexual difference, disregarding the safety of over 200,000 schoolchildren to appease a small voting block. This raw bribery puts children at risk for the sake of political gain, revealing a flawed mindset that prioritizes votes over protection. Additionally, there is a cultural demand to accept delusions, such as recognizing Caitlyn Jenner as a woman despite biological reality. This pressure to abandon common sense reflects a culture descending into insanity, exemplified by awarding a Woman of the Year title to someone born male, an insult to real women who have achieved greatness. Similarly, liberals push the delusion that guns kill people, ignoring the reality that the problem lies in the heart, and propagate the false notion that removing guns will eliminate violence, overlooking the simple truth that laws do not restrict those who refuse to follow them.

Political Correctness in Spades (Part Five)

Commentary by John W. Ritenbaugh (1932-2023)

Political correctness is not rooted in fact. It distorts reality, as seen in the assertion that a barn everyone knows is red must be called blue. Social pressures from the media push several non-factual narratives. First, Caitlyn Jenner is presented as a woman, despite the reality of being a man impersonating a woman through surgery and chemistry. Second, there is the delusion that individuals who routinely break laws will abide by them in designated areas like gun-free zones, ignoring the historical fact that laws alone do not restrain lawbreakers without a changed heart. Third, the government claims the economy is in great shape despite a 20-trillion-dollar debt and prolonged unemployment, routinely lying about economic and unemployment figures. Fourth, the notion that only liberal progressives possess compassion is promoted, even as they support actions like abortion, labeled as scientific research or a woman's health right, revealing murderous hypocrisy. Fifth, the public is urged to accept the Black Lives Matter organization as peaceful, despite its engagement in mass violence and hateful rhetoric. The leadership of this group is criticized for hypocrisy, politicizing the movement to push a narrative of police brutality in every case of Black deaths by police, disregarding circumstances. Statistics from the Department of Justice reveal a Black man is 18 times more likely to be killed by another Black individual than by a police officer, and in Chicago, only five of 500 gunshot deaths this year involved Black men killed by police, showing no evidence of a police war against Black men. The politically incorrect reality, as reported by Black police officers, is that Black individuals are arrested more often due to higher rates of violent crime, and the leadership's true aim is political power over inner cities, not the protection of Black lives.

Marxism in Academia: The Origins of Political Correctness

Commentary by David F. Maas

Alarmingly, what Marcuse, Alinsky, and their fellow radicals coined as partisan tolerance in 1965 has morphed into today's political correctness. This concept, rooted in Marcuse's ideas and Alinsky's tactics, is used to shut down debate and silence critics of progressive thought. It is why an observant Jew like Dennis Prager is labeled a bigot and a Nazi on internal Google emails, why conservative speakers are disinvited from college campuses, and why anti-Semitic initiatives like the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions movement against Israel are celebrated. It also explains why anyone who calls a man a man on Twitter can be summarily suspended for dead-naming if that individual has recently declared a different gender identity. Through these mechanisms, political correctness exacerbates social strife by pitting Americans against each other based on skin color, sex, and sexual preferences, weakening fundamental societal structures like the nuclear family, especially in communities where fatherless homes have become the norm. Furthermore, it has brainwashed many into equating the killing of a viable child in the womb with birth control and reproductive health, and convinced women that pursuing demanding careers should take precedence over marriage and motherhood.

Political Correctness in Spades (Part Six)

Commentary by John W. Ritenbaugh (1932-2023)

Accepting the teachings of political correctness leads to sin. Each politically correct teaching is a tool to gain people's support for governmental programs that increase the powers of the present government. A politically correct teaching is a broad statement that can easily be accepted by some with emotional attachments leaning toward the false statement, but when examined honestly with understanding, the teaching is false on its face. One such demand is that Americans must embrace all illegal immigration as compassionate while strongly opposing national border security. Political correctness insists we welcome all illegals and grant them legal immunity in sanctuary cities, even as some commit mass murder, rapes, robberies, and looting. Additionally, we are expected to dismiss the truth that illegal, uninsured drivers cause numerous accidents daily, particularly in states like California, Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas. The leadership of nations often has ulterior motives for such programs, devising clever lies to hide their real intent, much like their leader, satan.

Political Correctness In Spades (Part One)

Commentary by John W. Ritenbaugh (1932-2023)

Political correctness is an insidious demand that you dismiss the evidence witnessed with your own eyes, your own experiences, and what you've already learned, replacing it with a delusional, false narrative forced into your mind to compel conformity. It is essentially a war on truth, a battle against facts, reason, and logic, driven by the powers that be, whether they are friends, a company, a political party, a social organization, or the government. The power of political correctness can force you to agree with a false perception, such as calling a red barn blue, simply to remain accepted by a group, surrendering your own true evaluation and logic. This ploy, one of satan's latest to destroy thinking processes, directly attacks reality and thrives on ignorance, insecurity, and fear within a population. Speed and the persuasive power of bureaucratic government and public opinion are necessary for its rapid spread. This danger is real and will be aimed at individuals and the church, pressuring conformity even when it contradicts personal conviction.
