Dictionary of Politically Correct Liberal Terms and Phrases

80

By Dumbledore

Progressive liberals have brought about an age of political correctness. This age demonstrates a rewriting of language and history to ensure that words and phrases that offend certain special interests are redefined or excluded from the vocabulary of those progressives and liberals.

You will notice this redefining of the language whenever you read liberal publications or watch liberal broadcasts (the news). Critical thinking is the art of seeing through the surface of text and uncovering the hidden meaning. Many people need help with this quest to uncover the truth so the author wrote this hub to show the true meaning of some politically correct terms and phrases to help readers what liberals really mean: There is a difference between how a phrase sounds and what the phrase means.

Bail Out

Politically Correct Twist: Lend money to organizations that are too big to fail so those organizations can continue to operate in tough times.

Bail outs are mainly a means to promote government support of labor unions and the progressive liberal agenda.

True Meaning: Funds received through coercion, in other words: Theft from the private sector to support the progressive liberal agenda.


Discrimination

Politically Correct Twist: Not giving "equal stuff" to any undeserving member of a minority. Minorities should have whatever they want and everyone must pay for those wants.

True Meaning: Discrimination is a term that has lost meaning in the progressive era from over use. Most discrimination these days occurs as a result of the Equal Employment Opportunity Act. See definitions below.

Equal Employment Opportunity

Politically Correct Twist: A voluntary government program to provide opportunity to underpriveleged ethnic minority groups.

Hope and Change

Politically Correct Twist: A phrase used by the current president in the 2008 election to provide comfort to citizens who fear the future.

True Meaning: The phrase's true meaning refers to the policies enacted by the administration that will fundamentally change the economy so that all any citizen will possess is hope, although hope is also quickly disappearing.

The current administration used this phrase to mask the true purpose of the administration's policies, which are to divide and conquer American tax-payers, who the administration considers enemies.

Labor Unions

Friends of progressive liberals. Labor unions are very powerful progressive lobbying organizations that gain influence from the number of members they misrepresent. Labor unions collect union dues, which are then used to lobby elected officials to take actions that are often against the wishes of the union members but promote the self-interest of the union officials.

Labor unions are corporations that avoid paying corporate taxes but promote increasing taxes on legitimate corporations..

Pregressive Income Tax

Politically Correct Twist: A tax strategy whereby as an individual's income goes up, so does the tax-rate; this provides the means by which the rich are nudged into paying their "fair share" of taxes.

True Meaning: A tax method used to punish those who produce so their wealth may be redistributed to lazy non-producers. This method of taxation is promoted by the current administration to perpetuate class-warfare and ensure that the under-achievers hate the wealthy.


Racial Profiling

Politically Correct Twist: Phrase created by progressive liberals to remove the natural ability of law enforcement and security professionals to concentrate attention on suspicious individuals.

True Meaning: Certain types of people do certain types of things. In some cases these people portray a particular look. If you do not want a Muslim extremist to blow up your airplane then you take extra care to screen scary looking Muslims. The need to avoid Racial profiling dictates that when you see a scary looking Muslim that you look the other way and harass a Christian instead.

Racist

Politically Correct Twist: Any person or organization that disagrees with the policies of the current administration.

True Meaning: The liberal media and current administration have used this term so much that the term has lost relevance in any honest debate.

Reverse Discrimination

Politically Correct Twist: This phrase does not exist in the progressive liberal vocabulary.

True Meaning: Denying employment or opportunity to non-members of preferred ethnic groups. This is the preferred practice of government agencies and any employer who displays the phrase "Equal Employment Opportunity Employer" on the employer's job postings. See above definitions for equal employment.

Tax

Politically Correct Twist: Voluntary contributions from happy citizens who wish the government to provide useful services.

True Meaning: Steal money from productive citizens to use against those citizens. Citizens do not have the intelligence to take care of themselves so the government must implement programs to control everything.

Tyranny

Politically Correct Twist: Not present in the progressive liberal vocabulary.

True Meaning: Progressive liberals are extremely tyrannical and work for government control of everything, typically against the wishes of the people they represent. The current administration provides a prime example of a tyrannical government in action

Union Dues

Politically Correct Twist: Volantary contributions from union members who are happy to belong to a union and agree with all actions the union takes.

True Meaning: Funds coerced from union members as a condition of employment. Union members must pay to work; refusal to pay union dues causes union members to be removed from their positions. These funds are then used to support policies that the elite union bosses support; often against the will of the rank-and-file union members.

Do labor unions spend union dues in a manner that reflects the views of the union's members?

  • Union members have no voice in how dues are spent.

You are correct about alternating pronouns as long as the pronouns he, him, and his are removed from the alternation. How many textbooks have you read lately? As an instructor I use textbooks all the time and what jumps out is that when pronouns are used, they are she, her, and her's.

If yr going to mock somthing you should probably know what it actually is first 7 months ago

The Gender Neutral movement doesn't replace male with female pronouns in traditionally male roles. It just alternates between the two within text in an attempt to create a more gender equal language.

Thank you for enjoying my humor. There will be more to come as my small mind sees humor in upcoming events. If you like the humor of the dictionary, watch for the short story of "the little bird," which should be coming in a few days.
