That's one aspect I really like about South East Asian culture - it hasn't been infected yet by the whites "politically correctness" - life happens and they simply get on with it. I follow some people and man some of the graphic photos that get posted (Facebook) there are intense, think /r/gore x10.
Anyways minority ruling the majority... 1 person complains all obey, sad
China doesn't massively censor its society based on what the authorities decide is correct?
You can't get any more of a controlled, politically correct society than China when it comes to censorship. They're the actual definition of political correctness censorship.
How about porn in China? The authorities decided long ago that was politically incorrect, and it's illegal.
How about Japan censoring - for 70 years - all sorts of aspects of what they did during and before WW2?
How about Singapore's censorship dictatorship, where Lee Kuan Yew ruled the news media there with an iron fist, and directly dictated what was culturally and politically acceptable. The very definition of political correctness based censorship.
Is your theory that South Korea has an open society when it comes to political correctness? I completely disagree, they outlaw anything even remotely pornographic, and they block all pornographic web sites. Again, the definition of enforced political correctness.
Then we can get into Thailand, which is censored heavily by their political correctness machine; it regulates everything from speaking out against regimes to pornography.
How about Indonesia's anti-porn laws, the very definition of enforced political correctness:
This only begins to touch the surface of the political correctness censorship rampant in Asia. And that's all before we get into the really bad examples, like Myanmar and North Korea.
Right - having read that, my use of "politically correct" was not what you've laid out and I've used an inaccurate term to describe what I want to say.
When in Cambodia, Vietnam and Thailand, there is a sense that people look out for themselves. The govt is there, however they aren't there to make sure you wear your seat belt, tuck in your shirt, etc. Sure there is an exercised control over media/news and ensuring the message about the government is inline with what the government wants. I'm not referring to this.
I'm referring to the: the photo is there, I don't have to look at it if I don't like it. I'll call you a foreigner, because you are. I'll call you white, because you are. Referring to people relating to each other. The people are most interested in themselves and their families rather than what other people are up to. The opposite of the American way "how dare you exist and offend me, I'll sue you!!" - whatever this is...
Cheers for taking the time to re-define what Politically Correct actually means :)
