There appears to be a saying in Russia like there was when I grew up in the 1950s, "Don't be a Pussy!"
In Politically correct terms this now is an off limits saying because of cultural changes in the U.S.
However, now it is a suicidal weakness for the U.S. in it's dealings with Putin. Collegiate Political Correctness could get us all killed in our dealings with Putin, just like English Politeness by Chamberlain led to World War II. Without someone as pugnacious as Churchill, England likely would have been lost too in addition to all of Europe. I'm not sure how the U.S. would have done then.
Putin is now using Political correctness against us. He is saying de facto, "I think because you are all politically correct that you are all pussies!" and we are saying using politically correct terminology,"We are going to sanction you like we did Iran".
But, what does that lead to? All he would have to do to take all the nations back in the Soviet Empire is to have a Hitler Type of Blitzkrieg and just take his tanks and mow through all the countries with enough tanks, men and missiles using satellites in less than a week. What are the nations of the world going to do? Cry?
Putin doesn't believe anyone will start throwing nukes at him. He doesn't believe in the START Treaty! He doesn't believe in DETENTE! Can't you people see this?
I don't think there is the will to do what it would actually take to stop Putin now at present on earth.
By becoming politically correct we may have doomed the world with the end of the EU and the U.S.
And what is China doing in the Pacific? They think the EU and the U.S. are pussies too!
And that's the EU's and the U.S. biggest problem too worldwide.
Political Correctness is an ideal but might not work in a world with Hitlers, Stalins and Putins. As long as criminals and Warlords are around political correctness can only be an ideal but not a full reality.
Unless all nations on earth believe in Political correctness at the same time then it cannot really work as you can see.
We still live in a world where, "Speak softly but carry a big stick" is still the best way to actually survive. Unfortunately, this is the actual unvarnished truth.
To the best of my ability I write about my experience of the Universe Past, Present and Future
