Wall Street Journal on ancient reenactment

Quote:However, it is much easier for me to say that I do believe our society has become too politically correct, and that’s because political correctness forces people to be dishonest – to hide one’s true beliefs for sake of not offending the majority’s ears.
I'd say that society has always been "too politically correct" in some way. It's just that what's "correct" changes a lot because it's defined as just whatever is aligned with the [strike]majority[/strike] dominant politics of the time.

Far beyond the rising sun
I ride the winds of fate
Prepared to go where my heart belongs,
Back to the past again.

To pick myself up from under this table...
