Has the world become too PC?
 

What do you guys think? I think that there is too much acceptance, like anything goes these days. Are we really PC or is it just a front?

Oh the world has become incredibly politically correct, do you remember when Christmas Break was called Christmas Break back in school? Now it's called "Winter Break" and I can understand the other side's view, but c'mon. There's also a story I remember reading a few years ago at Sea-Tac Airport (Seattle/ Tacoma) where a Jewish man complained that they had Christmas trees up around the airport in the food court area. Arguably the UK has it the worse, like that village somewhere that changed the name of Spotted **** to Spotted Richard because ONE person snickered at it.

Are you talking about things being "anything goes" or you talking about things being PC? Because those two ideas are somewhat contradictory.

One of the most irritating phenomenons in modern history is political correctness. And it causes more harm than good.

To speak well of a base man is much the same as speaking ill of a good man. Leonardo da Vinci

Speak as you find...the rest is just bullshit! right-track

I dunno.





Maybe.

Didn't Manhunt 2 have to get rerated because it was far to gruesome to get a mature rating?

Anyhow

No. They censored it, the bastards.

Ok, so maybe that was a bad example, but that was only for the Wii version right? And it being Nintendo should come as no surprise.

While we are on the topic of the media getting too carried away about a video game.



This is a high mark in Fox New's history of idiocy.

"Who plays video games? Adolescent males, not their dads".

What a stupid bitch.

I mean seriously these people have no idea who the modern demographic for video games are, many gamers are full grown adults and if you think a goddamn RPG that's rated M is being marketed towards kids you're a bloody moron.

Oh? And the controversy? The thing that made this guy call it Luke Skywalker meets Debbie Does Dallas? It's all over an incredibly brief shot of some blue chick's butt and right side boob, truly a sign of the end times.

I mean, this is FoxNews, owned by the same guy who owns the Fox network which has always been a channel specializing in sex and violence.

I mean, you can show us COPS where there's some crazy foul mouthed redneck covered in blood, running around naked and defecating in the street after busting his wife's face up with a golf club but god f*cking forbid you show some hot alien chick's blue ass cheeks.

Yeah I think we're definitely too PC these days.

Merry holidays everyone! Enjoy your winter festivus!

I think it was censored in all incarnations. Wikipedia mentions a hack for the PSP and PS2 versions that removes the filters which definitely implies that those versions were also censored.
