I love it when PC terms get mangled in translation. 

Saw a pic of a handicapped bathroom sign in China - the English translation on it said 'Deformed Man Toilet.'   :laugh:
There were loads of brilliant ones around the time of the Olympics.

These are not my PC terms, but the PC terms Swedish politicians and media use (literally translated):

Immigrants=New Swedes
Handicapped=Function hindered
Cleaner=Locality caretaker, hygien technician(!)
Immigration related crimes=Structural discrimination(!)
Communists rioting and using unprovoked violence=Anti-fascists(!), anti-racists(!)

Copied from someone's signature on another forum:

"Political Correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end."

Black = African American

I'm not from Africa.
My parents aren't from Africa.
My grandparents aren't from Africa.
My great-grandparents aren't from Africa.
My great-great: I don't know, and I don't care.
George:I'd say I'm sorry to disappoint you, but I'm not. I excel at not giving a shit. Experience has taught me that interest begets expectation, and expectation beget disappointment, so the key to avoiding disappointment is to avoid interest. A equals B equals C Equals A, or whatever. I also don't have a lot of interest in being a good person or a bad person. From what I can tell, either way, you're screwed. Bad people are punished by society's laws, and good people are punished by Murphy's Law

You don't act like a nigger though, so you're cool in my book. :thumbup:

They will always see that in my eyes.
I am the passion; I am the warfare.
I will never stop...
always constant, accurate, and intense."

When I was in Elementary School the self appointed "activists" worked hard in the media to get people to use Black instead of Negro, then for a brief time it was Afro-American and reverted to Black and then the African American term got to be the default one. It's an awful lot of bullshit that changes nothing.
