Right-wingers and Trumpists all complain about "Political Correctness" -- except they do it themselves.

In Missouri, a red state with a lot of conservative Christians, school administrators deleted quotes from two openly gay students. What the students wrote was funny and harmless; but these conservative snowflake administrators ordered the quotes erased from the yearbook, violating the student's right to free speech:

Am I supposed to be ashamed of myself or something, over what some school in the south does?

We get examples like this from both sides. A few months back students were complaining when their photos were altered to erase the word "Trump" on the front. I guess the school viewed it as hate speech?

Many were outraged over that and I suspect just as many will be outraged over the quotes from the gay students being removed.

The outrage is warranted and should be equal. We shall see.

It's a State-mandated indoctrination center.

Anything goes. My advice would be to avoid such entanglements.
