Summary/Abstract: For a better understanding of the well-known ideology of political correctness (PC) and its whole functional system, there is a certain necessity of ‘diving’ underneath the original paths and myths. The story that has already been developed through many years and places until what we all recognize as being politically correct or incorrect around ourselves these days holds back an important amount of information that has its deep roots stuck within the concept of communism. According to the latest researches, two antagonistic perspectives and attitudes can be underlined among the two different political parties: people of the left strongly believe in the generosity of the concept and its protection offered to the minorities, while the right opponents mostly confirm an identity of it within the menacing power of censorship. How would the Left party describe their entire work and ideas? What would they have in common with the Right party’s thoughts? How much of it is real and how much of a myth? These are part of the questions that we tried to answer within the further lines.
