Political Correctness

 

Hi Ya,

Just got sent this.  It nearly brought tears to my eyes.  I can only hope there is truth to the story.

 


The following is the 2010 winning entry from an annual contest at Oxford University, calling for the most appropriate definition of a contemporary term.



This year required a definition for the contemporary term:   'Political Correctness'



The winner wrote:



'Political Correctness is a doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rapidly 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'

 

Cheers.

Hi Ya,


Go for it dude.  It isn't my original.  As I said, it was sent to me.  Who knows who was clever enough to actually write it but agree, very funny and Oh so true.

 And Till, who cares.  It was posted for it's humour quality, not factuality.

Cheers.
