Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Individual rights cannot always take precedence over collective, social responsibility. Without self-moderation, our streets, schoolyards, public transport, waiting rooms and restaurants would turn into bear pits. Most citizens understand that. Some, however, seem determined to cause disorder in the name of free speech. Powerful, machiavellian and wealthy individuals are leading this disruption and breaking the old consensus. Thus, anti-political correctness has taken over the UK and US, spearheaded by some of the most influential voices in media and politics. Invective, lies, hate speech, bullying, intemperance and prejudice have become the new norms. Intolerance is justified through invocations of liberty. Restraint is oppression. A new order has been established in which racism, sexism, homophobia and xenophobia are proudly expressed. In this powerful new book, Yasmin Alibhai-Brown puts forth a spirited defence of political correctness, forcefully arguing that, in spite of many failures, this movement has led to a more civilised, equal and tolerant world. By tracing the history and definition of the term, Alibhai-Brown looks to clarify the very nature of PC, which is ultimately grounded in human decency, understanding and compassion – all of which are essential for a safer and kinder world.

Download or read book Political Correctness Does More Harm Than Good written by Douglas Kruger and published by . This book was released on 2020-10-27 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Political Correctness Does More Harm Than Good! It's a surprising assertion. Isn't PC culture all about kindness? About protecting victimized groups? If you trace the history of political correctness, the answer is emphatically no. It has other goals in mind and has since its inception with thinkers like Rousseau. Author Douglas Kruger traces the unfolding ideology from its dark genesis (the French Revolution and subsequent terror) through its various incarnations- Marxism, relativism, post-modernism, and all the way to today's identity-politics. He points out the flaws, fallacies, and in many cases, the body-counts these ideologies have wracked up. Uniquely, this book then goes one step further. It is not merely descriptive history; it is not just explanatory philosophy. This is a debate guide, a how-to manual for those interested in attacking these harmful ideas head on. Do you know how to articulate what is wrong with "woke" arguments? Do you know how to defend the Western tradition against relentless onslaught from the PC-Police? Here is how, step by step and argument by argument. Become a master at identifying, debunking, and dismantling dangerous ideas. Add your voice to the culture wars and learn precisely how to fight for tried and tested Western values-values like science, democracy, logic, rule of law, and the Judeo-Christian tradition of human rights and values. As it turns out, you can have truth, or you can have political correctness, but you can't have both. Award-winning speaker and author Douglas Kruger also provides you with supplemental "how-to" videos on his site www.BreakingWoke.com.

Download or read book Without Firing a Shot written by Ron Walker and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2010-10-28 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the major hindrances to the advancement of mankind is the subliminal mind control of political correctness—or PC. Once thought of as merely a method by which society could become more sensitive to the needs of others, PC has become a brainwashing technique used by those who wish to control not only our minds, but also our actions. Those who use PC in this manner prey on natural human compassions to further their own hidden agendas. They will advance their agendas by almost any means necessary, including the use of false accusations and outright lies. Far too often those agendas have very little, if anything, to do with the problems they claim to solve. In most cases, they ultimately harm the very people they claim to help. Without Firing a Shot is not about trading one form of mind control for another. Using real-life examples and in-depth analysis, author Ron Walker explains how to look for the signs of the shell game known as political correctness in order to better understand the world in which we live. Whether you agree with his opinions or not is irrelevant. Ron’s thought-provoking commentary challenges and encourages you to discover a method by which you can free yourself from preconceived political ideologies, research the facts with an open mind, discover the truth, and draw your own conclusions— whatever they may be.

Crocker III's panoramic and provocative view of four hundred years of history that will delight and amuse, educate and entertain. Strap on your pith helmet for a rollicking ride through some of history's most colorful events.

Download or read book The Press Freedom Myth written by Jonathan Heawood and published by Biteback Publishing. This book was released on 2019-11-28 with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does press freedom mean in a digital age? Do we have to live with fake news, hate speech and surveillance? Can we deal with these threats without bringing about the end of an open society? In a fast-moving narrative, Heawood moves from the birth of print to the rise of social media. He shows how the core ideas of press freedom emerged out of the upheavals of the seventeenth century, and argues that these ideas have outlived their sell-by date. Heawood draws on his unique experience as a journalist, campaigner and the founder of the UK's first independent press regulator. He describes his own crisis of faith as his commitment to absolute press freedom was rocked – first by phone hacking at the News of the World, and then by the rise of social media. Nonetheless, he argues powerfully against censorship, and instead sets out the five roles that democratic states should play to ensure that people get the best out of the media and mitigate the worst.
