Nothing is wrong with PC. Just as nothing is wrong with tobacco, alcohol, fishing, hunting, drilling for oil, building shopping centers, planting crops, following our elected officials around with cameras, or playing loud music.
All of the above becomes counter productive, rude, dangerous, or sickening when taken to an extreme.
That's how it goes. I make a point, they avoid and then make it nasty and personal. That's who they are.You are easily put on the defensive.Political Correctness: Strategic Hypersensitivity deployed specifically to keep your target on the defensive and control the conversation.
Regardless of the denials, deflection, obtuseness, nastiness, bigotry and distortion of those who have weaponized it, the Regressive Left.
.
Standard lib dishonesty.
ATtack someone and then accuse them of being defensive.
NOte how Mac's point was COMPLETELY IGNORED, while the lib made a smarmy personal attack.
More interestingly, I have a few of them on ignore but they post to me anyway. That's how far up in their heads I exist. I do wish USMB would tweak the board so that I didn't see their posts when I quote someone, but it is what it is.
These are nasty, dishonest, narcissistic people. I'd rather not see their posts and let them soak in their own hate.

Political correctness is an extreme tactic that is constantly used by the Left to personally attack people who dare disagree with them and thus control the conversation.
And thus defend and advance policies they could not defend or advance honestly based on the merits of their policies.

Certainly, as with everything else, it can be taken to extremes. There is nothing wrong with such PC things as "participant awards" for kids playing Tee ball or calling the person who heads the board of directors "the chair" or "chairperson". Its a bunch of old men pining for the way it used to be.

No---A bunch of idiot progressives who think that calling a garbage man a "sanitation engineer" will make him smell better.

You are ignoring the fact that this tactic is used all day, every day, at every level of society by the Left to protect and advance policies and agendas that they cannot defend or advance honestly based on their merits.
Terrible damage has been done to America and Americans and a lot of people who have been targeting with this sleazy tactic over and over again are growing increasingly angry.
This isn't about Tee Ball, buddy.

No, actually you were employing PC exactly as described by Mac and myself.

Well, I'm sure there are cases of people being overly politically correct. Someone tried to blame a neighbor's hesitance to report on the San Bernadino killers (I think it was their neighbor) on PC. Supposedly, the neighbor didn't want to be "profiling" or something. I"m not sure how it went. Anyway, that would be an example of PC taken too far. "If you see something, say something"--Obama (supposedly a PC practicioner) says time and time again... Its fluid.

So fluid that nobody know what the rules are but liberals will be glad to enforce them for you.

As stated (twice now) taken to an extreme, anything can be counter productive. PC is no different. Will you be willing to provide some examples?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Negro_Family:_The_Case_For_National_Action#cite_note-11From the time of its publication, the report has been sharply attacked by Black American and civil rights leaders as examples of white patronizing, cultural bias, or racism. At various times the report has been condemned or dismissed by the N.A.A.C.P. and other civil rights groups, and leaders such as Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton. Critics accused Moynihan of relying on stereotypes of the Black family and Black men, implied that blacks had inferior academic performance, portrayed crime and pathology as endemic to the black community, and failed to recognize that both cultural bias and racism in standardized tests had contributed to apparent lower achievement by blacks in school.[9] The report was criticized for threatening to undermine the place of civil rights on the national agenda, leaving "a vacuum that could be filled with a politics that blamed Blacks for their own troubles."[10]
In 1987, Hortense Spillers, a Black feminist academic, criticized the Moynihan Report on semantic grounds for its use of "matriarchy" and "patriarchy" when describing the African-American family. She argues that the terminology used to define White families cannot be used to define African-American families because of the way slavery has affected the African-American family.[11]

There was nothing in his post you replied to that implied he was offended. He was simply and accurately describing standard lib use of PC.
And you changed the subject from Poltical Correctness to Mac and his alleged personal flaws.
Does that sound familiar?
BTW, my definition of PC indicates that you still will refuse to address what Mac had to say about PC and again continue your focus on Mac and/or myself and our alleged personal flaws.
Because that is what PC is and that is what libs do.

The Negro Family: The Case For National Action - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
the Moynihan Report, 1965
It investigated and concluded that the primary cause of problems in the black community was the collapse of the Black Family ie Illegitimacy.
This a serious work that identifies a real problem that has and is ruining and ending millions of lives.
Instead of a real debate, Lefties have called it racist and any attempt to do something to address the cause of social dysfunction in the Black Community has been demagogued with Political Correctness.
From the time of its publication, the report has been sharply attacked by Black American and civil rights leaders as examples of white patronizing, cultural bias, or racism. At various times the report has been condemned or dismissed by the N.A.A.C.P. and other civil rights groups, and leaders such as Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton. Critics accused Moynihan of relying on stereotypes of the Black family and Black men, implied that blacks had inferior academic performance, portrayed crime and pathology as endemic to the black community, and failed to recognize that both cultural bias and racism in standardized tests had contributed to apparent lower achievement by blacks in school.[9] The report was criticized for threatening to undermine the place of civil rights on the national agenda, leaving "a vacuum that could be filled with a politics that blamed Blacks for their own troubles."[10]

Try on this site. Try arguing that the collapse of the Black Family is the real problem causing black crime.
Libs don't argue with you. They call you a racist.
