I think we have perhaps an opposing understanding of the term. Which has more to do with acceptance and inclusion at best and tolerance at worst. IMO You also made a lot of assumptions about my views in general. Unchallenged bigotry leads to concentration camps and death. PC is a great challenge to such ignorant and foolish behaviour. I prefer it. |

As for those claiming that political correctness is at the root of genocide, I am sure that prejudice is a key factor. However, attempts to address prejudice are often ignored by stubborn, pig-headed replies of "you're being too sensitive", "you're being too PC", and "you make it so people can't have a laugh anymore". When people have been enslaved, hunted and killed, dehumanised and have had to fight to gain the equality they deserve, they will be sensitive, and justifiably so. Who are you to decide that due to your vast life experience "all that doesn't matter now" and sweep it under the carpet? |

Big Brother are covering their backs, they dont want another Jade-Shilpa scenario, not that its going to be one of those situations!
They were right to bring Scott and Ashleigh into the diary room over their behaviours!, warning them was the right thing to do!. My only problem with BB is that Conor said worse than those two and he is still in the house?. |

It had nothing to do with accents, it was simply commenting on how she ate, she lives in india and they do eat with their fingers...
BB were a little jumpy, maybe they sounded as if they were mocking, but thats it. I'm with those who find conor and carolines systematic abuse much more offensive.

I don't think anyone eats cereal with their fingers, just like I wouldn't expect Chinese people to eat cereal with chopsticks.

Yeah, didn't BB say during Ashleighs warning, that bullying includes making up lies about people?

I think it was the pure disdain more than anything. And the stereotyping, and the fact he didn't give a damn really annoyed me. Last edited by Tym; 20-07-2012 at 01:14 PM. |

And yet... Doesn't Scott come from a working class family and has cultivated his ridiculous accent (sadly for him without acquainting himself fully with the rules of grammar) to make himself seem more interesting? And he has the bloody cheek to ridicule someone else?
