Epiphanies Of Mania; Huh, makes sense now.

Something I thought about a lot the past few years is how people overreact about "SJWs", but how in some respects they are still a very serious problem. The past twenty four hours I thought about it, it having came up in my life several times this week in fact. Every time it came up, I found myself thinking almost the same thoughts.

"That isn't racist, but that other thing is racist. They just overreact and don't understand they are. They aren't very bright, they don't know better. They learned that some things are offensive and don't understand it."

A classic example of this is how all kinds of people run around with "white people hair" or "black people hair" but for some reason it's not okay for white people to have dreads, according to some people. They insist it's "culture misappropriation".

When I think of something that actually is such a thing, I think constantly not of stereotypes that can't really be stamped down, (because then what would you be for Halloween) but of religious symbols that are being abused.

I don't care if someone makes my dishes poorly, I don't give a f*** if they do. I don't care if they pronounce my language wrong or wear my clothing wrong.

What I care about is things like crosses and bibles, the American flag as well.

So what was the Epiphany?

Well, the education and parenting systems of the free world teach people that certain things are wrong, that they are signs of oppression or of a dark time in the past. The thing is that a lot of people never learn to actually tell one thing apart from another.

This is why in politics, people overreact so much and act like so many things are the end of the world.

To make it simple, image each person was a robot and they were implanted with a "racism" or "Marxism" detector. The problem is the AI isn't very smart and the detector is very sensitive to make up for that, to the point that it goes off at the slightest provocation.

This is why some women saw a poster of a evil x-man villain choking a woman, and saw Sony as promoting violence against women. They knew that gender based violence against women is bad, that it involves a male and a female in a lot of cases, and so whenever they see a man hurting a woman they think it's sexist.

This is also why a lot of so called "SJW"s can't tell when someone is joking, the sensor is too sensitive.

That is the proper term for it by the way, it's not "politically correct", it's "overly sensitive".

Politically correct means you managed to not piss of Stalin and get killed.

A lot of "PC" things actually make powerful people hate you, so the word doesn't exactly work as well it it could.

Overall, that's my Epiphany Of Mania, for now at least.
