Actually, your point about Dunkin' Donuts response being a form of bending to "poitical correctness" is an interesting point. Your general attitude is what sucks. As for the troll comment, I was reacting directly to your comment that you enjoy pissing people off...
In retrospect, I was wrong.
Quite frankly, I am not sure that Dunkin Donuts' response can be so easily equated to so-called political correctness. Would you call the whole "freedom fries" issue a form of political correctness? From my point of view, I see the two non-events coming from the same reactionary source.
Whereas, I see the so-called politically correct movement as rising out of a minority attempting to control how they are defined by mass culture (i.e. blacks demanding they be called African American rather than Negro or Nigger).
From where I am sitting, Malkin's efforts seek to reinstate the monolithic control of cultural definitions in the face of a diversity of definitions.
What do you think Matthew?
