To answer your question - Pax Americana is the whole globe. (There ARE men who thinks more or less so). Fortunately, that's not true. Yet.
Perhaps here we agree for once, on principle at least. But apparently Amaranta is of a different opinion, believing that it has been in place and somehow ended due to "political correctness".
I'd agree with Amaranta in one thing. Political correctness and hypocricy for me is the same thing. Why should I twist my tongue and invent some "politically correct" words while there are already words that describe the thing? My attitude towards that thing would not change if I use politically correct word anyway so why bother?
There's more - by substituting the real words with the politically correct ones people add to hypocricy level in society. And that can be done harmlessly only to a certain level. I don't want to live in a world of hypocrites.

Change the attitude, not words.
