I would consider myself politically correct. There is nothing in the term politically correct that implies that others can't say offensive things. That's not what the term means or is about.

I defined pc several times and honestly you're asking for proof that's not needed or rather a clarification. As we all know what PC means or can use google to find out. And regardless of it's definition there is its application also. And people in this thread were advocating to restrict rights based on what's pc and should be permissible.
And I'm glad you consider your self pc. But of course you would because PC is often about ones perception and not based in fact.
So if the pc police in this thread and in rl had their way hiphop would be outlawed. It almost was once before, or at least severely restricted. As it was seen a misogynistic and could influence listeners to commit crimes. And that sounds just like what you and Swagga were saying about Trump. There's no difference besides your internal system of morals. Which you think should be the standard bearer for society. And honestly, I don't think you're pc I think you're extreme and don't want you telling me what's right or wrong or what to say. No thanks Stalin.
