Bottom Liners by Eric and Bill Teitelbaum for August 11, 2023

Politically correct has already struck out.

This is baseball – not politics nation!

It might hurt his self esteem

There’s probably more truth in that speech bubble than not.

Political correctness started out as a good idea, but it was quickly adopted by the people who were against it and turned it into a weapon to use against itself.

It all goes back to “The Golden Rule” of Treat others as you would have them treat yourself. It is very sad how few people live by this rule, especially those who claim to be followers of the man who stated the rule.

Stealing a bag is acceptable in baseball—- not at the mall…until lately—- avoid stopping the crime of shoplifting and arrest the store employee and let the thugs run home!Being woke and wearing the cap of political correctness is worthless if you condone violence, anarchy and thievery—- the question must be asked—- would you cheat if we played baseball… then why cheat in business, politics and life ?

Or, you could just write, “We don’t actually understand what political correctness is so we’re using it as a dogwhistle.”

Oh, what the hell. Just drill him in the ribs.

If you criticize me for something I do or say you are depriving me of my right to free speech, you politically correct so-and-so!

Another attempt to assign negativity to the concept of treating others decently.

What’s wrong, guys? The “Biden’s a doofus” jokes not landing?
