[QUOTE="CobraBob, post: 14923081, member: 6727"] I found this definition of the word 'political' from the Urban Dictionary very interesting. [COLOR="#AFEEEE"]An adjective used to describe actions or statements which are self-serving. Political works typically involve half-truths (such as statistics), hidden motives, deceptiveness, faked integrity or sincerity, or false advertising via exaggeration. These political actions are frequently immoral since they offer no regard for honesty or justice. [/COLOR] Hence we have the word 'politically correct'. Same key words apply. Involves half-truths, self-serving, hidden motives (I'll add self-seeking motives), false integrity/sincerity (hidden behind social media), or false advertising via exaggeration. Social media drives the PC machine, and the PC machine wields a lot of power/influence because to buck the PC machine hits the corporate pocketbook big time. Which is why corporations respond so quickly to a social media attack. They will do whatever necessary to agree with the PC machine to ensure that their profits and self-serving is not compromised. JMO. [/QUOTE]
