    Yup, Marxism.

    The below goals of Soviet Communist disinformation and active measures was published 22 years ago in "Dezinformatsia: Active Measures in Soviet Strategy" by Richard Shultz and Roy Godson, 1984, page 44. It is interesting to note how certain elements continue these goals today.

    1. To influence America, European and world public opinion to believe that US military and political policies are the major cause of international conflict and crisis.

    2. To demonstrate that the United States is an aggressive, militaristic, and imperialistic power.

    3. To isolate the United States from its friends and allies, and to discredit those states which cooperate with the United States.

    4. To discredit US military and intelligence establishments.

    5. To demonstrate that the policies and objectives of the United States are incompatible with those of the under-developed nations.

    6. To confuse world public opinion concerning Soviet global ambitions, creating a favorable environment for Soviet foreign policy.

    The term "politically incorrect" actually came to the fore when Maher's tv show of the same name ("Politically Incorrect") began in the early 1990's. Before that, it was barely in use, but since then it has become almost like a political shibboleth.
