Question: what is ugly? Is it forbidden by “political correctness” to talk about what could be ugly? Houses, cities, faces, clothes, certain behavior or opinions, a four letter word, a hate speech? It is necessary to mention the ugly things because we have to defend ourselves vs. bad influences? Or should the ugly give us the motivation only, to focus, what might be better?

there was much discussion about the song lyrics of Randy Newman, performing his song “short people” – some said: irony, others managed, that it was forbidden to play this song in the radio
