With the discovery of zero tolerance, it has been weaponized as a liberal WMD.
Black caucus luminary James Clyburn (D) says.....
"Congressman Jim Clyburn went even further. "The entire English language was created by slaveowners as a means of oppression. You can't just say that one word is a racist code word or another. The whole language, every single word, letter and apostrophe in it is racist. It's a fact. If you speak English, you're a racist." "
Who can argue with that?
the science is settled...we are all racist!
if you disagree, you are a double dog dare racist of the most reprehensible kind!
Dr Seuss and mother goose are now racist.
Misgendering someone is worth a 25K$$$ fine.
Being offended has definitely been weaponized. The Dem D-party owns the patent. Now a US patent special category, words that offend you and the group you represent.
Single words now replace discussion and argument. Like Groucho Marx and Ducky, say the magic word and you too are an insensitive hateful lout whose argument is tossed an unworthy for anyone to hear.
I'm Conservative...apparently I haven't received my "marching papers" to be offended about that show. Can someone enlighten me as to what was so offensive about Beyonce at the Superbowl? And I don't even know who Kendrick Lamar is.
Conservatives generally don`t do a lot of boycotting.
Liberals will never run out of things to be offended about.
They will never go away and will never shut up about absolute meaningless issues. Like ancient art hanging in buildings.
I was raised to appreciate art for what it is and for it's time in history. The only people in my life I ever heard about seeing politics in art were the Nazi's, but now it's the liberals as well.
Summarizing the long article, assuming you read it, would be helpful.
I agree that political correctness can be annoying and misguided at times.
I also can empathize with this, from your link:
"A full account of Minnesota's history will include multiple perspectives of events, not just the master narrative," believes Westerman.
When Andrea Carlson, a local artist of Native descent, walks into the Capitol, "I just start laughing. I see European fantasy paintings in this faux-classical style that is selling something really hard, like super propaganda."
(Yeah, and it doesn't look like "ancient" art to me)

Basically, it seems that the Indians in the area have a problem with many of the depictions because they are actual false.
who would have thought, people would make comments about false paintings.
also, the word race only appears in the title. that doesnt really matter, but i thought I would point it out. I guess the author called it racial in the grand sense that it is one race against another. And in particularly, white people trying to white wash history.
I think it would be like if the US Government hung up photos depicting something like Internment camps actually just be summer camps or something.
It's patently false. It's a white washing of reality. It's a denial of what actually happened. It's actually not history, it's a lie, and we know it's a lie.
