I'm not exactly sure when it began, but it seems like it's been quite a while ago. One used to hear and see the term 'Political Correctness', but its usage seems to have significantly diminished - Maybe it's just my imagination. What seems to be very prevalent in society now is a person being 'offended' or 'triggered'. I hear you. It seems to me that as I grew up, most people knew what was 'offensive' behavior ... We all knew rude people and/or witnessed rude behavior .... We could generally all agree it was wrong. Nowadays it seems you can offend someone or trigger them by the most innocuous behavior or words. Hell, even having your own opinion can set someone off. I know - Right? Remember the phrase "I disagree with what you're saying, but I'll fight to the death for your right to say it"? What happened to that idea? Once upon a time, didn't the ACLU fight for the right of NAZI types to march - Was it in Illinois? Is that my imagination? I'm sure we all abhor the thought of NAZIs marching, yet we knew they had a right to. I think I remember that. Now the ACLU seems to sit on their hands a lot of the time and has become political ... What a shame. I admire Dave Chappelle .... His comedy routine offends a lot of people because so many people have lost their sense of humor. He doesn't care and makes fun of the people he triggers..... OK - Blog over - Get some food for thought, or are you gonna flame me and set me straight? Get my mind right as the warden might say ....

I think the old "political correctness" has morphed into being "woke".

I have noticed. There is so much electronic media that bombards us every minute of every day and they all seem to have an agenda. I miss people like Walter Cronkite. His agenda was the presentation of events backed by just the facts.
