If PC Liberal cuckoos get their way...


This would be the actual future.

Just re-watched this for the first time in forever. I had forgotten how it predicting the PC culture. Sadly, we're well on our way with the level of PC in the movie.

Ok I disagree with the society depicted in this picture and agree that political correctness is wrong, just look at the wokeness ruining franchises such as Star Wars. However and I hate saying this but total freedom of speech has failed and some control is needed. When I was younger I would never have dreamed I would say this.
The reason I do is that to a certain extent freedom can fail. I am talking about bullying, banter and brutal honesty, now all these things WOULD be ok but for one thing, some people who dish it out can’t take it. This leads to conflict which would never have happened if certain people had been controlled. I am sorry to say this but some control is sadly nessessary, it would not be if pro freedom people were like edgar friendly

Nah. You can't have it both ways. There's either free speech or there isn't. They take a little at a time, till it's all gone and we're in chains.

Another stereotypical moron reaction.

Here's the equivalent of the stupid, extremist view from the other side.

Everyone carrying guns and shooting anyone who isn't white is what the right wants.

Don't be such a stereotypical moron. Cliché extremes is quite ridiculous.

"Everyone carrying guns and shooting anyone who isn't white is what the right wants."

Your extremist relativistic analogy is laughable. Republicans wanting to go around and shoot people who are not white is merely another version of the race card people like you play.

Cocteau social engineered San Angeles to follow his dictates, ie his iron fist. His way or the highway or in the movies case, the sewers.

Leftists want to foist their psychotic dreamworld upon the USA. A religious person of faith who does not want to make a cake for a Gay couple on religous principle is sued though the couple have dozens of other establishments that will welcome their business. Not only can you not say no in your own business, but you will be forced to act against your will such as the religous were ordered to make the cake or suffer the consequences.

Republicans dont want to make anyone else carry a gun nor do they wish to shoot anyone, though the example of Black Lives Matter, that they demonstrate that dont give a dam if Black cops are shot by the thugs who are part of their movement, is a perfect example of why Republicans want people to have a choice to have a gun.

Your post is about as ridiculous as the adults on Charlie Brown cartoons.

''A religious person of faith who does not want to make a cake for a Gay couple on religous principle is sued''

Yeah... because this is fucking moronic!!! I get that you don't understand that some people can consider it discriminating, but yeah, this is HIGHLY discriminating. And based on their religions? Well, now, there's a cancer we should erase from our society. And our time and place, we have no room for this kind of nonsensuous discrimination. There had been enough wars created because of this kind of intolerance already (which, by the, was often influenced by religious beliefs... or, more accurately, how people decided to interpret old texts describing each religions). We don't need it, simple as that.

If your religion tells your to be a sexist, homophobic, racist fucking asshole, then there is a high possibility that the problem lays in your values. Once again, religions were interpreted in so many ways to justify so many abysmal beliefs and actions that it's really hard to really say if the religions, initially, even had these kind of toxic values.

So, yeah, refusing to make a cake for a couple just because of their sexual orientation because his faith pushed him to do so, is just as retarded and dreadful as a teacher who refuses to teach to a student just because he is handicaped (yes, in my college, this actually happened and the said student tried to commit suicide, just to tell you how far it could possibly go). I honestly say that the gay couple has a really good reason to sue this fucktard's sorry ass. This kind of bigotry isn't welcomed anymore and for good reasons, since everyone deserves to have rights and equality. If your beliefs tell you to have a backward mindset that belongs in another century, maybe it's time to revise the old texts and adapt them to the 21st century (it's not like if the bible wasn't edited before, right).

It is a scary thought that the PC nutters having been a little too successful up until now.

However, the type of response that I quoted above is bringing their kind down as well. All they can do is attack and try and shame people, their whole agenda and philosophy lacks depth and logic. People are waking up.

Sometimes a movie or tv show plot is so stupid that only the stupid can understand it.

reply

If anything the future society is more republican ideals; forcing people what to think, what to read, outlawing pretty much everything bad for them, forcing those who don’t adapt to become outlaws. The extreme censorship is a conservative standpoint and it is a future in which Arnold Schwarzenegger had been president.

Those who challenged the status quo were forced into the sewers. That is exactly the type of thing conservatives would do if they could.

reply

Thank you for the laugh. That was hilarious.

It's very much a combination of both, I think that's the whole point. Don't forget guns are outlawed and everyone is super nice and wholesome and the cops are absolute wimps. Everything is overly PC. I know what you're saying but when watching it again recently I couldn't help but think of Sweden.

You need therapy and your idea of what conservitives wants is so crazy im not sure if you are trolling or simply out of medication. Good luck

PC liberals? More like religious fundamentalists. No swearing and no sex. That is future all those christian and muslim nuts want.

reply

Yeah, because it's religious extremism that's on the rise in the US. That's REALLY who's suppressing speech. All over college campuses, don't ya know? Never feminists or anything. They love free speech.

reply

Seemed more of a blend of liberal and conservative extremes to me. The views and restrictions towards sexual intercourse in particular are classic ultra-conservative.

Anyone here mentions Hotel California dies before the first line clears his lips.

reply

''Seemed more of a blend of liberal and conservative extremes to me.''

Great point, now that I rethink about the movie, I must agree with you.

''The views and restrictions towards sexual intercourse in particular are classic ultra-conservative.''

Yup, and I never understood why in the fucking hell. This would be like returning 600 years back. The hypocrisy in this is SO infuriating (I know this statement was made 1000 times and I'm not original nor did I personally thought about it, just wanted to point out): the US government seem to constantly try to demonize sexuality.... while having the biggest porn industry in the world. I guess this is because porn industry is one of the most profitable industry in the world, so it's probably for financial resons. But this is like if someone would be a devoted protester against guns, while being a gun seller himself.

Fun fact which is not really relevant to the situation, but I recently learned this and thought it was another case of total hypocrisy: despite the fact that homosexuality is totally forbidden in Saudi Arabia and is subject to the death sentence, lesbian porn (not gay porn, only lesbian) was recently legalized because it generates a lot of profits. So basically, a woman can make a lesbian porn scene, but if she opens up publicly about her homosexuality, she gets killed. This is a real case of an abysmally hypocritical dumbfuckery.

P.S.: I hope everyone understands that I'm not saying that lesbian porn shouldn't be legal, but rather that the fact that homosexuality is still illegal in some parts of the world is really depressing and frustrating.

reply

I would have agreed more with the post if it weren't from the unnecessary (for the 10000th time here) attack on liberals. I agree with the fact that the movie was strangly accurate about how a PC society could look like. A bunch of pussies who want to be in a safe zone by restraining people's right to have their opinions, habits and values. Of course there's a limit to this (for instance: if your values tell you that murdering people is okay, you might want to check on your mental health instead of gaining the right to do so), like another poster pointed out here, but we are really getting at an exaggerated level right now.

And then, as pointed out by one different poster here, you decided to go with the ''let's bash the liberals'' annoying and really overused angle. How that poster said it so well: THIS, is just extremism from the other side. There, this post becomes moronic. Political opinions DO NOT define everything in a person or a group of person, this is just based on all the stereotypes and the dumb things a few people who were leftists had done.

In reality, both parties have there issues and have their fair share of morons. So, this obsession that you Americans have (one that I will never understand) to constantly refer to politics, no matter the subject, and deliberately bash the side opposite to your personal political ideology is getting REALLY old. Myself, I'm more of a leftist, but I have some agreements with the right. Yet, despite my personal beliefs, I know leftists who are complete idiots and not really good people, just like I know rightists who are smart and great people. If you are a decent person and are not toxic for the society, why the fuck should I care about which side you choose to be?

So, could we please stop this childish and ignorant bitching? Because, seriously, and I know I'm not only speaking for myself, it's getting VERY annoying.

reply

Not all of us Americans are politically bent. Just the LOUDEST ones. Our politics is merely the elite misdirecting the sheeple. I'm not involved with that, as an American.

So, yeah, name calling specific groups is a problem over here because people feel competition is good and solves things. Grouping TOGETHER is what solves things, not competing.

reply

''Just the LOUDEST ones''

Yes, thank you! I'm quite aware of that, I didn't mean to generalize. Sorry if it looked like it. I would add that specific rule applies to political ideologies: the loudest people say some dumb things or do some dumb shit and then they make their political side obvious, so then we get the impression that this applies to everyone who thinks like this.

In reality, at least with what I observed in my part of the world, people who are open-minded instead of being ignorant extremists are able to put things in perspective rather than saying that everything is perfect with their parties while everything is wrong with the other. Most people I know are able to judge and seeing pros and cons in every political parties, no matter what orientation they personally have.

I know I can, I once went as far as to consider voting for a rightist party because I respected the leader and loved his ideas, while the most leftist party had somehow of a clown rather than a leader. Finally I didn't vote for it, but there was a serious consideration. During these specific elections I went for a party that was more considered to be in the middle (as you probably already guessed, I'm not from the USA).

So yeah, the same recurent issues: the loudest people often make the majority associated to their groups, ideologies or nationality look bad, while in reality they really are a minority.

''Grouping TOGETHER is what solves things, not competing.''

And thank you as second time!

JohnMcCock requires an answer, fucktards (Taran-fag and gjb-retard).

JohnMcCock would say that people might care too much about other people's opinions, even though they should try to care less. If everyone had the same opinion, the world wouldn't have much diversity, right? JohnMcCock knows a few people who rejected other people from their lives, or very simply unnecessarily hostile with them, based solely on their political views...?! Okay, maybe there's more to a person than that.

What JohnMcCock would say is: live and let live, think for yourself and let people think for themselves. At the very least, being a radicalist who thinks that only his opinion is right and everything else is wrong makes you a very vile person. You can't have an argument here, all you can say will be dismissed and, in some instances like I said a few lines back, you will receive an unnecessarily mean response.

So come on people, like jgb2074 said it so well, let's all work together instead of against each others because... you can find someone who will agree with on everything, so why even bothering?

Unless you are are talking about a psychotic opinion which clearly goes against the norms set in our society. JohnMcCock knows that if someone tells him that it should be legal to murder babies, he might call the police on that person... or, at the very least, not wishing to have this person around him. The key is: use your judgment.
