I don't think it is. People being obsessed with not hurting others' feelings is ruining this country. What do you think?

This is not the greatest sig in the world, no. This is just a tribute.
It should be a thing in moderation, but a social culture built around it is pretty bad.

As it is currently used, not at all.

As it should be used, as a politically minded extension of being tactful, then I don't see a problem with it. But enforcing it is stupid and an utter waste of police time.

Good Manners = Political correctness is redundant.

It can be if not overused to the point of ridiculousness.

On the other hand, we have people like you who are obsessed with hurting others' feelings.

I don't think I've ever seen a post from you that wasn't demeaning in one form or another, to some degree or another - including your reply to my previous post.

Then you must not see too many of my posts. I generally only insult people if they're being dicks or insulting me.

Nah Class is a good guy if you ignore his asshole tendencies.
Also if you're nice to him he'll likely be nice back :)

If I'm not here, I'm doing photography. Or I'm asleep. Or in lockdown. One of those three, anyway.

The current titlebar/avatar setup is just normal.
When it is used to show respect about something/someone you know little about and could offend to the point of a fistfight it's ok.


When it's hindering discussion that needs to be done or important work (such as police work or national policies), then something is seriously wrong.

emigrate or degenerate. the choice is yours
To a certain extent. Institutional political correctness can be beneficial to minorities in trying to obtain employment.

Social political correctness on the other hand? Ehhh, not so much. I feel like its just the pet project of the SJW in an attempt to right the world of wrongdoings, when all it's really doing is curtailing speech, and trying to turn everyone into silhouette cardboard cut outs.

Almost always, with moderation
Being tactful with what you say sure, no need to get all hurt of technicalities.
