Correct adjacent

When you're not QUITE correct but you're close to correct.
Iam "Looks like we were wrong about the zodiac killer thing and the inferring meaning thing... Hmm..."

Hym "Ah! Shit! Stop DOING that! But I prefer the term 'correct adjacent.' We were close... So very close..."

Iam "The infer meaning thing was the opposite of what we said"

Hym "👌 Correct adjacent 👌 "

Iam ".....Whatever I'm going back to sleep..."

Hym "Announce yourself visually before you chime in again. I'm tired to you just popping up out of nowhere!"

Iam 🥱👋

Political correctness

A way of censorship and judgment by following what the society establishs it's right or wrong, without giving the events, the ideas or the decisions that are being judged the depth it deserves. Political correctness is most of the time related with left ideologies, but it depends on the country and the subject. In America for example, people use to care more about black people than women, ergo, most of the time, political correctness with black people issues more than women issues. In the other hand, in Mexico people use to care more about women issues than indian community issues, so political correctness is applied to women issues and not to indian issues. Also, an overlooked aspect of political correctness is that, in some cases, it's applied in a way that people don't realise about it, given to the fact that political correctness is only associeted with left ideologies. I'll give some examples of political correctness being used by the liberal part of the population and the conservative> part of the population.
“Mary got laid with more than 30 men and she's only 23, what a whore!”, this is an example of political correctness by conservative people.

“In this new book by Marty R. Jefferson, three black men steal a liquor store and kill the owner, it's such an offense to black people by using such a racist stereotype.” this is an example of political correctness by liberal people.

“Heard Liv is a feminist now, so sad, now she spents her days yelling nonsense at rallies, she's only looking for a good fuck.”

“Have you seen Joker already? My god what an awful movie. The main character, Arthur, is such an incel!”

cynical correctness

To find tenuous and contrived reasons to be offended by statements or actions of others.
Example: "He didn't use a gender neutral term, so he is both sexist and transphobic" when really he is just bad at grammar. The person who said this was preaching cynical correctness
