Summary: The text examines the disastrous consequences of the onslaught of political correctness and the use of euphemisms by which communication and relationships in human life gradually lose their basic meaning – normality. Begun as a new postulate for behaviour and speech, the new political discourse has ambitions to conquer the world, but will most likely lead to civilization breaking into two or more parts, each of which will retain its ‘normality’.

Keywords: political correctness, euphemism, communication, normality
