Those who would repress what we think and say are the real enemies today. I think there must be some major, major, major consequence for those who would go down the path of being PC Enforcers.
Throughout history, the worst of the worse have been banished as a punishment. SHould we exile and quarantine those who would put us all into a little tiny box, and then try to destroy us if we even think about trying to get out??
Most political correctness enforcers are irritating. They generally don't want to make certain speech illegal though. At most they want to encourage private businesses to change their ways. This has resulted in some gains for society. I think the problems they cause are exaggerated.

I think we should.
I don't mind political correctness that much. I do mind people who want to exile people for expressing their opinions. We should exile you. We should keep Anita Sarkeesian. However, I will say I'd appreciate it she would go live in Antarctica where she could explain to the penguins why videogames displaying scantily clad women are sexist.
THOSE GAMES ARE MADE FOR MEN! WOMEN WON'T SEE THEM ANYWAY FOR THE MOST PART! IT DOESN'T MATTER!

I have felt this for a long time. Subversives should be punished for the damage they do to our national fabric. They should be taught a lesson that would make them think twice about their unpatriotic behavior.
But like the Muslims that have overrun Europe in recent years; where would they go? What country wants our leftist troublemakers?
I think PC has become extreme, only because they abuse their Constitutional rights to trash everyone else rights. I certainly wouldn't exile them, because that would set up anyone to be exiled for any reason. Talk about the end of individual rights!
It's foolish to believe doing such a thing would make anything better. We'd not be a free society, such that it is, anymore.

I'm sure they'd make a good fit in northern Europe (Sweden, Denmark, Norway...etc), the countries they continually praise for how socialism works so well... but then they'd find out it isn't the candy land nirvana they believed it to be.
There should be no exiling of anyone for their beliefs... but perhaps a mandatory 6 months living in a Scandinavian country for democratic socialists (progressives) would be a good idea.

Who's repressing what you think or say? Free speech also includes the right to express their disagreement with what someone says.
Being "Politically Correct" just means you have to be a lot more creative on how you go about insulting people.
Political correctness prohibits taking the cheap shots.
