Political Correctness Is Newspeak
We’re living in a time when our very words are policed. “Speaking your mind” carries consequences (as is proven by the fact that YouTube demonetized this video ). Political correctness is none other than the “newspeak” spoken of in George Orwell’s 1984. If you ask me, anything that is aligned with the word “political” can’t be a good thing.
