Just last week the bakery dept. at a Walmart refused to bake a cake w/ a Confederate Battle flag on it but a day later baked one with the ISIS flag on it. I think its time to examine the mindset of Political Correctness, it's ideology and impact , as it's the new generation that's being indoctrinated by it.

Why am I suspicious of this story? Maybe because "political correctness" (a form of authoritarianism) comes in sooooo many flavors.

No reason to be suspicious; the guy who was involved has a video showing receipts, dates, and cakes.

I am absolutely sure that the decorator of the "ISIS" cake knew exactly what she was doing and that, as an employee of Walmart, she created that Islamic hate-cake because it was company policy. I am certain, certain, certain, certain, certain, that this was in no way a "put-up job." Why on earth would somebody put up a job like that?

"Heritage not hate?" I'm sorry, years of evidence points to "Heritage is hate." Oh, wait, evidence is evil, evidence is hateful, evidence is the work of the devil. We don't so evidence, we "believe."

I suspect that rooted deeply in liberal progressive ideology with all its teachings about the sins of America and White European and American guilt, that the thought of creating a cake depicting an ISIS flag was politically safe because after all it was " Americans who waved the Confederate battle flag to keep the plantations alive and well and it was Americans who created ISIS". So in summary, it is all the fault of the Americans !
It may be interesting to note to progressives and conspiracy theorists that ISIS grew out of the same terrorist group that murdered 150,000 Algerians between 2001-2007. The 3,000 dead on September 11th may have been their warm-up act.
The insane notion that Americans created Muslim terrorists in the world makes absolutely no historical sense. Yet liberals teach this and while bending over backwards to "understand " the radical Muslim's miserable and murderous existence, men like Robert E. Lee who graduated West Point and wore the uniform of the Confederacy with a very heavy heart is stripped of all of his humanity and called an all out racist.
Interesting times we live in. Troubling times, because this up and coming generation is getting it so wrong. A generation where critical thinking is being replaced by a code of conduct based on rhetorical emotion and rewritten history.
Perhaps I'll order a cake from Walmart with Mussolini on its top layer . I wonder how Facists are viewed by the politically correct play book ? Mussolini will probably stand a better chance than George W. Bush on getting his face on a cake in 2015 !

Wow! One does find some strange things up there when you're looking for colon cancer.

And you found this in what part of my reply?

<<Perhaps I'll order a cake from Walmart with Mussolini on its top layer.>>

Why not? Who's Mussolini? Stop a hundred random people on the street and ask about Il Duce. You may get other than a blank stare from one of them and he'll be over 65.

I forgot that you folks are irony deficient. My point was that every single Walmart cake worker knows the slavery flag and the controversy over its link to nine dead African Methodist Episcopalians. The ISIS flag is familiar mostly to news junkies, the average working stiff would probably be hard pressed to identify it if offered a hundred bucks. I could make a reasonable facsimile on a sheet cake and I'm a shaky old man.

If you don't know anything about liberals, it's probably a good idea to either find out or to not write anything pointless about us.

I believe the same person ordered the cakes. The Walmart office was probably told nothing concerning confederate flags on anything. Big deal, they went too far, they were following a new procedure.

Yes, Walmart's bakery is a bastion of liberalism. :roll: :roll:

You'd have to be a out of touch idiot, to not recognize the Isis black flag- it would stake all of a moment to satisfy curiosity, knowing full well they are in the business of refusing goods and services for certain images, to to make sure…. .

Lets see.. first thing that comes to mind..

[Google Search: "Black flag with arabic lettering]

go ahead and cut and paste this below or start your own ( "S" removed from https, also removes the search info- I tried it. )

See, no excuse. If the story is exactly as we hear- THERE IS NO EXCUSE other then….. the person votes liberal and has never seen a news program and hates FOX news…. AND is an idiot.

Now that I think of it… did you recognize it?

You're trying to be clever here ? I do know something about liberal ideology. I was a liberal, but then at the age of 26 I grew up.
Actually it isn't a bad thing to have an open mind, but today many liberals are closed minded bitter people. I wish you a lot of luck.
