I particularly love Stewart Lee, he wrote a really good piece for the Guardian on the subject.

He makes a good joke and drags it through the street.

ED: I'd also like to take the opportunity that taking away the right to say c*nt is taking away the right to call Richard Littlejohn a c*nt. Thanks, Sam

What the hell does this even mean?

The kind of people that have a go at PC, the usual suspects who trot out the same set of phrases (It's "politicalcorrectnessgonemad!") and justify their bollocks with appeals to things like "freedom of speech" really get on my tits.One of their favourite tricks is playing the victim and they are always the victim of the nebulous, specteral PC brigade an organisation that exists apparently to make everyone into muslim atheist homosexual feminists. The thing is that political correctness isn't about that at all and it no more impinges on your right to freedom of speech than the expectation that you begin requests by saying "please" - it exists to create a framework in which you can get on with things without looking like a bigoted tool. It is in fact in the interests of not sounding like a bigoted tool that I am interested in becoming part of this shadowy PC brigade and anyone with information on how I'd go about that should contact me.

I could rant about the current trend of wankers, specifically the kind of wankers that write hateful columns in papers targetted at middle england or who get TV programs dedicated, basically, to their ego and whatever demented pathology they have which forces them to shout at anyone with a dissenting opinion in order to prevent them from getting a word in edgeways (hello FOX) to have a go at PC whenever possible. They are craven liars with less backbone than a convention for particularly cowardly invertibrates and they create controversies out of thin fucking air. I hear so many lies and half-truths from these people and their fans (who can seem like reasonable people until you accidentally utter a trigger like "immigration" or "season's greetings" when they suddenly turn into a ranting ball of incoherent bigotry) that I wonder if it's ever occured to them to tell the fucking truth at least ones in a while especially since one of their favourite stock phrases implies straightforward honesty ("calling a spade a spade"). The lies are insultingly transparent like some council or similar group banning "manhole" in favour of "personhole" which anyone their furniture can tell is actually made up. The half-truths are rarely any better: christian symbols are banned in school but sikhs can do as they bloody please (actually this was in one school, a fucking anglican one too, and the symbol banned was a crucifix on a necklace which was disallowed on account of being a safety risk and the headmaster of the school activel encouraged the student to wear christian jewlerry.), anyone who uses "seasons greetings" or (worse) "happy holidays" hates christmas and christians (No. When these phrases are employed as a manner of adressing the general public its because those employing the term know damn well that some people don't celebrate christmas so wishing them a merry one doesn't make an ounce of fucking sense.) and PC council bans great british dessert (Another banal school story. The edetails are too tedious to go into but basically serving staff at a cafeteria changed the name of "Spotted Dick" because one of their members couldn't stop making immature jokes which I imagine would grate after the first two days. The council had fuck all to do with it ever).

It's disheartening to say the least when the sentiments of these vile twats are echoed by ordinary people. Especially when it's obvious that the "controversy" at the centre of the PC gone made up ranting is always some complete non-story spun into something proportedly shocking. The urge to batter some sense into people, especially ones that repeat crap like the personhole story, is almost irresistable. It has taken all of my effort not to just haul off and twat any fucker trotting this bollocks out as if it were the truth rather than a set of childish lies.

I was going to post this last week until I heard the "C" word at the end, which ruined it.
