Socially Appropriate And Required Correct Etiquette

I often amaze myself,
How unphased I can become...
By those things done,
That today are acceptable.
When those exact same procedures,
Had been once scrutinized,
As unethical.

And now that the 'unethicalness',
Of what yesterday was not politically correct...
Is in place.
And more of what 'then' was initiated,
Has been updated to be regarded...
As socially appropriate,
And required correct etiquette.

And yes...
B.S. still retains its full implied meaning,
As it applies.
And...
With a bunch of it.
