should go back to calling black people “colored” or “negro”?

After all it’s political correctness that removed those terms for black people.

Mostly conservative here, but not seeing the problem. CB made a statement that that cord should have been wrapped up before being put on display & made the change.

Complaint made, problem solved. Life should go on.

What would be wrong with that? There is virtually no difference between the description “people of color” and “colored people.” For that matter, there is virtually no difference between calling someone black and calling them a negro. That’s what negro means.

If it was that simple, all they had to do is hang the iron by its cord.

Well you go out and push back again political correctness and call the next black person you see “colored” or “negro”.

Report back about your experience

Sorry Sam, you must use the NAACP approved term. Can’t use colored people or Negro. It’s hurtful.

Unless of course you ARE black and toss the N word around with impunity every other word.

Is that a word you want to use, without impunity?

It’s a lot cheaper to virtue signal than to make any real changes.

I love it how you libs flaunt your arrogant pretentiousness rather than actually address the points you disagree with. I suggest the time you hear a black person use “people of color” you should ask them what the difference is.

I have been pushing back against Political Correctness ever since it first reared its ugly head in the late '70s with no negative consequences except a few “loving” lib relatives have defriended me on Facebook. No great loss.

People of color are by common language usage, colored people. If they cant accept that, too bad.

No answer?

Then why do you care if black people do?

Like I said… be the anti SJW and run around calling black people “colored” or “negro”. Call gay people whatever you want. Show them you © mean business.

Social justice is imaginary lib construct. I don’t need to show anything. I’m not responsible for your emotional meltdowns.

Who’s going to miss that noose hanging up in the dining area? Why would anyone miss that?

Becaus it wasn’t a ■■■■■■■ noose?

Did you bother reading to OP or did you just knee-kerk an answer?

It looks like a noose.

Sick and tired of arrogant ■■■■■ dictating how to speak.

(Nose in air) You can’t say black ya have to say African American, can’t say retarded, have to say special needs, or even make such individuals sound more hopeless as developmentally disabled, can’t say stinky, must instead say has bodily hygienic issues, can’t say American Indian, but we can’t make up our minds what to call them, er, indigenous peoples? First Nation?

It’s ironic that those who are supposed to feel better about themselves through rewriting of the English language actually hate it. A friend who broke his neck as a drunk driver exclaimed “DIFFERENTLY ABLED?! For the love of Mike, Jesus healed the crippled, not the differently abled!”

Americans Strongly Dislike PC Culture

Youth isn’t a good proxy for support of political correctness, and race isn’t either.

It appears a large majority of Americans, including those in ethnic & racial minority groups, are sick of political correctness & feeling the need to self censor.

Another brave victory for the mentally ill who see racism around every corner. lol
