It's perfectly acceptable to fly a Jamaican/Pakistani/Iranian flag out of your window, but the minute you reveal a St. George's Cross, you are treated like a rapist.
Foreigners are actively encouraged to laud their lifestyles. What other culture would purport lyrics such as these?:
"When the pimp's in the crib ma
Drop it like it's hot
Drop it like it's hot
Drop it like it's hot
When the pigs try to get at ya
Park it like it's hot
Park it like it's hot
Park it like it's hot
And if a nigga get a attitude
Pop it like it's hot
Pop it like it's hot
Pop it like it's hot
I got the rolly on my arm and I'm pouring Chandon
And I roll the best weed cause I got it going on
[Verse - Pharrell Williams]
Uh! I'm a nice dude, with some nice dreams
See these ice cubes, see these Ice Creams?
Eligible bachelor, million dollar boat
That's whiter than what's spilling down your throat
The Phantom, exterior like fish eggs
The interior like suicide wrist red
I can excercise you, this can be your Phys. Ed
Cheat on your man ma, that's how you get ahizzead
Killer wit the beat, I know killers in the street
Wit the steel that'll make you feel like Chinchilla in the heat
So don't try to run up on my ear talking all that raspy
Trying to ask me
When my niggaz fill ya vest they ain't gon pass me
You should think about it, take a second
Matter fact, you should take four B
And think before youwit lil skateboard P
[Chorus]
[Verse - Snoop Dogg]
I'm a gangsta, but y'all knew that
Da Big Bo$$ Dogg, yeah I had to do that
I keep a blue flag hanging out my backside
But only on the left side, yeah that's the Crip side
Ain't no other way to play the game the way I play
I cut so much you thought I was a DJ
[scratches] "two!" - "one!" - "yep, three!"
S-N double O-P, D-O double G
I can't fake it, just break it, and when I take it
See I specialize in making all the girls get naked
So bring your friends, all of y'all come inside
We got a world premiere right here, now get live!
So don't change the dizzle, turn it up a little
I got a living room full of fine dime brizzles
Waiting on the Pizzle, the Dizzle and the Shizzle
G's to the bizzack, now ladies here we gizzo
[Chorus]
[Verse - Snoop Dogg]
I'm a Bad Boy, wit a lotta ho's
Drive my own cars, and wear my own clothes
I hang out tough, I'm a real Bo$$
Big Snoop Dogg, yeah he's so sharp
On the TV screen and in the magazines
If you play me close, you're on a red beam
Oh you got a gun so you wanna pop back?
AK47 now nigga, stop that!
Cement shoes, now I'm on the move
Your family's crying, now you on the news
They can't find you, and now they miss you
Must I remind you I'm only here to twist you
Pistol whip you, dip you then flip you
Then dance to thismusic we crip to
Subscribe nigga, get yo issue
Baby come close, let me see how you get loose!"
One song, glamourising the following:
Prostitution, drugs, stealing cars, anti-Police attitudes, murder, infidelity, treating women like sh*t and "gangsters".
- Such intellectual stimuli from one of the World's most famous rap "stars".
In simple terms, acting like a complete c*nt is being held up as the way to live your life, and the simple-minded, easily-led majority are happy to follow whichever dickhead gets the most publicity.

easy to make fun of PC stuff. But its really important in shaping the minds of youngsters. Saw a thing on West Wing one time of a group that suggested showing maps that showed the south pole facing "up" and showing a different kind of map that was more realistic to the sizes of the continents (stuff at the poles is made to look bigger than it really is because to make something 3-d into 2-d the long and lat get stretched more.

Yes, Joe, the whole issue of maps flared up a couple of decades back. The standard Mercator Projection exaggerates the size of landmasses as you move toward the poles, which makes Greenland look bigger than Africa. For some, this was an implicit statement about European hegemony that perpetuated colonialism. Some people suggested that an equal-area projection like the Gall-Peters Projection would be a better choice because it gave the tropical world its proper due. Critics hit back saying that it looked like the continents were wet clothes hanging on a line and just didn't "look right." The irony, of course, is that there is no right answer: all projections distort something significant about the earth (usually relative size or shape) in order to turn a 3-D sphere into a 2-D sheet of paper. The now widely accepted projection, the Robinson Projection, is favoured by National Geographic and others because it is a nice compromise of shape and areal distortions. Who would have thought map projections could be linked to race? (I love teaching my students about this stuff.)
As for the "upside down" map, it's often printed as the "Australian view of the world" and is designed to remind us that north at the top of the map is a cartographic convention that need not be followed in every case. Still, there's a bit of a barb to this kind of thing. I had a kiwi friend in college who would occasionally accuse people of being "hemispherist" because they would associate winter with the period of Dec-March for instance or send Christmas cards with snowmen on them instead of beach parties!

jokes aside at least that one was taught right, although I don't get the concept of "doesn't look right" and "look like hanging clothes", that's just a matter of being used to something and expecting a map have to look like something. I'd go for the most accurate one.

I think its something to do with "accurate" in different ways, so you have to choose which categories are more important to be accurate in.
