Many people don’t understand this simple fact. You understand that hatred of political correctness and the SJW culture literally got Trump elected. Liberals do not understand this, they are doubling down on thier demands that all of us comply with political correctness and there are more SJWs out there than ever spewing stupidity. The more they attack and demean conservatives, rural Americans, southerners etc. for our rejection of thier world view the more we galvanize against them.
Moderate democrats who were smart enough to distance themselves from these extremists and focus on real issues could beat Trump ( clearly the worst to ever come from Republican Party).
The lesson for mainstream conservative candidates......stop kytying to political correctness yourselves, stop apologizing when you offend a SJW and simply stand up to them. Trump may be a bafoon but he proved that many Americans want an end put to political correctness.
SJW is still an insult. Many Leftists (including me) laugh at it. I also laugh at your broad-based criticisms and generalizations. Attacking "political correctness" may mean that some folks want to feel safe enough to use insulting, racist and sexist (etc.) language. If that's so, admit it. And no, I don't have a Ph.D.

It is everyone’s right to use insulting, racist or sexist language. It is your right to ignore it or avoid people who use it. It is not your right to try and prevent others speech that offends you. You have no right to demand laws that would prevent that speech, demand they be fired from thier jobs, or officially punish them in any way. Political correctness has ruined comedy, TV and movies. Remember the TV show In Living Color? Lots of race based jokes and other assorted politically incorrect humor. It was funny.....now you won’t see it anywhere. I cannot watch one of my favorite shows from when I was younger because it displays the confederate flag (Dukes of Hazzard). Yes I hate political correctness and I hate liberals for spreading this cancer upon the freedom of speech. Nothing is more un-American than restricting someone’s free speech because it offends you. In fact doing so makes you an enemy of America IMO.
Free speech remains a right and I don't challenge it. You misunderstand me if you think I do. But name-calling will not gain you any respect from me; that's the issue. And again -- one small, anecdotal example (the origin of this thread) proves NO trend.
Weird, Pilot1 and No-Recess seems to understand most of my posts. I guess having more PhDs might be not enough to grasp what I'm trying to said.
Wait, but we are all uneducated Neanderthals I thought?
