Both sides do it, but we simply label it "stupid" when a conservative does it.

You say "straight, white Christian male" like it's a bad thing.

Have you always done that?

Are you claiming that the labeling of the left as socialist or communist only started in the last 11 months ????

Are you claiming that there hasn't been communist and socialist in the Democrat party at least since the early 1900s? And Democrats haven't presented such policies? When a Republican advances the policy to exterminate jews or expel legal citizen then you have the right to call them a Nazi. If on the other hand someone just proposes rolling immigration back to a more historical American policy and conserving demographics, then you do not.

A lot of things. Social conservatives do have their own political correctness. The War on Christmas is one of the most strikingly similar, and how they will get upset about stuff as simple as red Starbucks cups and cry persecution. They are offended if they are wished a Happy Holidays instead of a Merry Christmas. Isn't this pretty close to political correctness?

I suppose. A conservative would just see it as defending against changes or attacks on tradition and heritage. Progressive liberals never stop or rest. I still say the Right learned to go on the attack from the Left.
