- content: 'I was reading a book (about interjections, oddly enough) yesterday which
- included the phrase "In these days of political correctness..." talking about no
- longer making jokes that denigrated people for their culture or for the colour of
- their skin. And I thought, "That''s not actually anything to do with ''political
- correctness''. That''s just treating other people with respect."
- Which made me oddly happy. I started imagining a world in which we replaced the
- phrase "politically correct" wherever we could with "treating other people with
- respect", and it made me smile.
- You should try it. It''s peculiarly enlightening.
- I know what you''re thinking now. You''re thinking "Oh my god, that''s treating
- other people with respect gone mad!"
