I dont think I am. but english is not my first language so I might be wrong. When I say political correctness I mean people censoring themselves and their opinions to not appear racist or even inconsiderate. As an example, I mean people being appalled at the use of the word ****** in Mark Twain, without considering the context of the book, and wanting the language "cleaned". If this is not political correctness I might have misunderstood the phrase.Bocaj2000 said:I know it's just semantics, but I think you're confusing "political correctness" with "out of context whistle-blowers." They aren't the same thing. I agree with the rest of your comment and I'm sure that we share the same values, but don't throw around the term "political correctness" in the same fashion that the people you dislike throw around the word "racist".tzimize said:snip* Political correctness is something we DO NOT NEED in art. *snipBocaj2000 said:That was seen as a white man and a local? I just saw a pompous villain and his goon. Their ethnicities are vague and kinda muddy, so I didn't really have any assumptions. It wasn't until I saw this video that I was aware of the controversy nor the context of it.
The same problem is found in the image from Far Cry 4. People cry wolf, and do not consider the context. Jim pointed out that Ubisoft has not granted us the whole context yet, but really. Are Ubisoft the Ku Klux Klan? Are they Nazis? Have they acted in a way in the past that makes it legit to assume they are all racist assholes? No. So why the hell should anyone do so now?
