"Political Correctness" is a term that is used by the far right, mostly so they can undermine an argument and disregard it completely by simply using that term to attack the individual/outlet instead to sidestep the argument completely. |
To be fair; this is exactly the same strategy that the far left uses to avoid answering difficult questions, here in Sweden they call people nazis and fascists just as often as others claim political correctness is ruining the debate. People also have tendency to think "if you don't agree with me, you agree with my opposition, there is no middle ground". It's ludicrously polarized and staggeringly counter-productive and the debates are either at a complete standstill or quite simply non-existant.
Honestly; I despise the far left and far right equally, they both cause harm, the main difference is that one is easier, and more accepted, to hate. When I refuse to take an extreme standpoint in various issues here, people accuse me either being misinformed, ignorant and even cowardly, they just cannot fathom that someone sees the world in color and not simply black & white.
