Do you ever think to yourself, “what has happened”? All the things that were once great in life are being ruined. Here I want to address some of these issues.

Language and jokes. We all know that the 80 and 90 contained language that would be forbidden in today society. But this language was not an issue back then so why should it now? Okay, I understand that there has to be a line that cannot be stepped over, but it has gone too far. The term “language” spans many areas, including racism. Due to extreme political correctness, various terms are becoming forbidden and in the long run has started to affect lifestyles. The majority of those who it is supposed to offend do not always find it offensive and also believe things are going too far. Because of this fact, I fail to see why political correctness is becoming more and more extreme. With the ban on classic nursery rhyme Bah Bah Blacksheep, the term Blackboard in schools and the name Christmas Holidays, it is something you would think unimaginable in the 80 and 90. What about whiteboard and names of other religious festivities? Public are not to blame, it is the government strategy. Jokes have also downgraded, with comedians having to be careful and presumably making them hate their jobs.
