The political outsiders who have spent the last decade peddling fake news articles and voting for populist conservatives who don’t pander to political correctness, are now starting to realise that maybe they enjoy living in a world where people go out of their way to not hurt each other.
Complete civil disorder has reached boiling point and curfews have been imposed in over 50 major US cities, as protesters take to the streets in outrage over the murder of an unarmed black man shown on video gasping for breath as a white Minneapolis policeman knelt on his neck.
The riots, now in their fifth day, are being viewed as a real blow for political correctness – after a frustrated and oppressed American underclass decide that they are no longer interested in talking about their issues.
‘Political Correctness’ is a term used to describe language, legislation, policies, or measures that are intended to avoid offence or disadvantage to members of particular groups in society.
In recent years, the term has become hyper-politicised as a tool to isolate and dispossess the middle classes – who have been reconditioned into thinking that showing respect for other people is a sign of weakness and violation of their human rights.
This political template, emulated throughout both America, the UK and Australia has seen a backwards slide in both bail reform, drug laws and reproductive health policies.
However, this global ‘Anti-PC’ rhetoric seems to have been undermined dramatically in the last week.
The richest economy in the world is a now at a standstill, as the land of the free is overtaken by the very anti-pc acts of blockades and riots which has come as a result of the gradual dehumanisation of the downtrodden to point where police officers now feel entitled to murder unarmed suspects on video camera without repercussion.
As of last night, the same people who demand the right to discriminate against and provoke minorities without being reprimanded are now clutching their pearls at what seems to be a rather dangerous pressure cooker that has seen these whingeing ‘snowflakes’ now throwing bricks and glass bottles full of accelerants at public buildings.
President Donald Trump has since dismissed any claims that he may be responsible for this volatile situation, and has instead laid the blame on the ‘democrats’ – who he accuses of organising the hundreds of thousands of generationally disadvantaged Americans currently burning cars and spray painting every city from LA to NYC.
