Is political correctness going too far?

Careful: I am one of "the old people", and I shall sue you under 18C!
I am deeply offended that you want me dead - without even knowing me!
 
Pixel, that is what has been said in here if I stand up for something.
The sooner these old people die the better.

What do you mean by "these" old people ?

Everyone over 65 ? Are you prepared to top yourself at that age ?

Terminally ill people ? Are you advocating euthanasia ? I thought that was against your religion.
 
OK I will give an example...

Standing up for Marriage.

I was told the sooner you all die off the better.

Meaning this old generation.
 
Do you pretend your religious beliefs fall into the broader Christian spectrum?
If it is palatable for you to wish someone dead just for standing up for a cause, such as Marriage Equality or Family Planning, then your sect is even more hypocritical than I feared.
That still doesn't cause me to want anyone to die before their time. At best, I might wish the proponents of such intolerant belief systems be outvoted and outlived by their more moderate and humane brethren.
 
Where did I say I wished people dead?

That is what was said to me for standing up for marriage.

I think you have misunderstood my post..

I wasn't referring to "you" personally, but used the pronoun "you" as a general reference, addressing the hardliners that publish the "better dead" posts. Should've made that clearer in my reply.

I took it that you were saying that old people should die.

Knowing the tenure of your posts I found that rather unusual. You should have made it clearer that you were responding to posts elsewhere and you can't assume that we would have read them if they were some time ago.
 
OK, I probably should have made it clearer.

I would not say that about the elderly.

I was annoyed that someone would come back and use their PC rubbish on me saying --- oh but you are happy that he is dead.
No, I wasn't happy that he was dead.

I didn't care what he was, I was listening to a song.
 
I think you were baited into that one Tink LOL

If it's any consolation I knew what you were saying ...I think Pixel and Rumpole did too, but too good an opportunity for irony.
 
Tisme, I won't be toeing any party line on political correctness, identity politics, history revision and what ever else these social engineers try to throw out.

I see our national broadcaster, ABC, has not one article on Bill Leak.

We are all entitled to our opinions, I was giving mine.
 

A search of ABC Online came up with at least 4 articles on Bill Leak.
 

I reached my limits of psychological manipulation about grade one I reckon.... when peer group pressure attempted to hijack my right to my own likes and dislikes.

Yes I think those scamps were at it again Touches on an important issue though - declining birth rates, and consequent ageing of the population is going to cause serious headaches for planners.

In the wake of the call for female symbols at traffic lights, I noticed on Kochies show this morning, some blokes are demanding that car parks show male symbols above the 'baby on board' spaces, and outside the baby changing rooms. Can of worms opened.
 
Thanks for your views.

How I see it....

The ones that call out diversity and tolerance, are the most intolerant of all, especially the Greens.
 
Knobby put up an article to do with one of the reserves in Melbourne being changed from Batman to Wonga.

The Councils have been infested with these Greens.

Supposedly, Batmans grandson has come forward about his great grandfather, and the aboriginal group were happy to hyphen the name to both.

As you can imagine, the PC crew have come in and said they are not happy with it.

Will be interesting to see what the outcome is on this.
