Political Correctness

Acting with a degree of civility towards your fellow human beings; regarded as tyrannical suppression of free speech by conservatives who cannot bear to be respectful and considerate of women and minorities. Ironically, the term is wielded by hypersensitive right-wingers to smear and silence viewpoints that deviate even slightly from far-right ideology.

The term has become a convenient scapegoat for politicians to evade responsibility for their own failed policies and safeguard the status quo. By directing the people's anger away from the real sources of their problems and towards "political correctness", politicians successfully preclude genuine political discourse and actual problem-solving.

Person 1: Gays are disgusting disease-ridden sluts who should burn in hell.
Person 2: That's not nice.
Person 1: HELP!!! POLITICAL CORRECTNESS IS SUPPRESSING MY FREEDOM OF SPEECH!!!

Comedian: Blacks are chimps who should go back to Africa. Am I right?
Audience doesn't laugh.
Comedian: Oh? Are you all PC?
Audience member: No. We just didn't think the joke was funny. That's all.
Comedian: POLITICAL CORRECTNESS IS RUINING COMEDY!!!

Citizen: Our for-profit health care system has left millions without health insurance and drives hundreds of thousands to bankruptcy every year. Why don't we expand Medicare so everyone can receive decent and affordable coverage?
Politician: I hear you. But I think we really need to be talking about the epidemic of political correctness that is harming us all.

Politically woke

When an individual is fully aware of what is happening in the government and society, what various individuals, organizations, businesses, social movements, and political parties’ agendas, beliefs, and actions are on numerous policy issues, as well as understanding how these beliefs and activities can affect them, their family, community, and certain minority groups in society and mobilizing socially, financially, and politically when needed in effort correct actions that are unreasonably discriminatory towards certain groups in the name of social justice. These actions include doing things such as attending protests and marches, signing petitions, calling out people, organizations, and businesses for performing biased actions, etc. It is important to note that people who are politically woke tend to be liberals and generally speaking will only mobilize on issues that are considered to be part of the social justice.

Lexy is aware of what is happening in the government, including what certain political leaders are up to. She has mobilized on many occasions to try to correct social and political wrongs committed by the government, certain celebrities, and organizations. For the most part, she only mobilizes on issues related to gender equality, LGBTQ rights, and racial equality. She considers herself to be politically woke. (The Giphy chosen for this word shows a movement that uses this idea a lot: the Black Lives Matter movement)

politician

A politician is good at arguing. Therefore he/she is a master debater. Say "master debater" 3x fast - masturbater! Usually applies to a guy. Carries a negative connotation; implies that the boy can't ever get a girl and is lonely and extremely dorky.

Girl 1: What do you think of so-and-so, I think he's cute, don't you? Might make a good boyfriend.
Girl 2: No way, girl, he's one politician if I ever saw one!

Vaccination Is Political

When the rates of vaccination in the United States are lowest among Trumpublicans, religious folks, and conspiracists in red states, compared to higher inoculation rates among those who voted for Joe Biden nationwide.

That there is a positive correlation between vaccination and votes in the US is unmistakable, because vaccination is political there, which means that more infections and fatalities in the face of the deadlier delta and delta-plus variants are expected in states with high proportions of unvaccinated people.

political punk

When people realized that music can only be good if drugs are involved, and the government suppresses drug use, they rebelled against the goverment by creating the genre political punk. Sometimes overlaps with oi oi oi (Oi!). Usually British bands or American bands that wish they were British.

"oh crap." said Jimmy. "I only like music when I'm high but drugs are illegal. That's the goverment's fault. Damn American goverment. Hey, I know, I'll make a song about how much the goverment sucks and pretend like I'm British. I'll call it political punk."
