American TV is now dominated by political correctness. That's the primary reason why I watch very little of it these days. However, I have watched enough of it in recent years to learn all of the following "precepts":
1) All burglary, drunk driving, theft, and violent crime are committed by white males.
2) There is absolutely no downside to going green.
3) Education is the answer to all of mankind's ills.
4) Born-again, evangelical Christians are all hypocrites.
5) Most, if not all, of the nation's wing nuts and wackos can be found in the conservative Republican ranks.
6) One religion is as valid (or invalid) as another.
7) Capitalism is bad; pure capitalism is an abomination.
8) Although somewhat essential to the family unit, a father is by far the dumbest member thereof.
9) There's no real difference between homophobia and racism.
10) Corporal punishment is tantamount to child abuse.
11) The sure path to heaven is to be philanthropic and fight for social justice, regardless one's personal character flaws and/or lack of a belief in God.
12) The rich are evil unless they give back much of what they have "taken" from society.
