Just an observation from the Sterling fallout in the NBA, or CEO's resigning because they supported a political cause that was unpopular with the masses or the usual media fauxrage (Huffington Post headlines cough cough) that every time some politician (usually from the GOP) makes some sort of statement about gays or minorities or anything that the mainstream thinks is unacceptable and must be spread out across the internet so that outrage can pile on outrage. Is it getting out of hand or should it continue?
Vote and be heard.
Political correctness has always existed...it's just what's acceptable in society. The only difference between it now and like 50 years ago is who it benefits or who agrees with it. In 1940 you could yell the n-word but you sure as hell would have to be silent about being anything other a mainstream christian denomination. Now you can't say the n-word but you don't have to apologize for being Catholic.
That's the only difference. It's a new name conjured up by conservatives to pretend it's some new thing
