   liberalism is militant and wants the abnormal to be considered the norm. PC was created  by liberals to win or actually shunt arguments that don't agree with their ideology.
   
   It is the tail wagging the dog, and that is not the foundation of the United States.
   
   It was WE the People, not WE the Liberals.
   They want to take the minority, and the questionable life styles of a few and jam it into the NORM using the misinterpretation of the US Constitution against the country and the people, especially the majority.
   
   We shouldn't have to make the US the surrogate home for foreigners that won't follow our law, and our culture, but want us to follow their culture and their laws.
   
   Diversity means Tolerance, not acceptance.

   Social justice warriors are demanding accommodation of their feelings, so they seek to deny others freedom of speech on account of their feelings. And then they enter conservative events where people came to listen to conservative speakers, shouting down others or throwing fire alarms or threatening violence (see Milo Yianapolis, Ben Shapiro, Ayan Hirsi Ali events canceled). They think their feelings of offense trump freedom of speech, freedom of association, freedom of expression, freedom of press.
   We have the rise of authoritarian leftists demanding absolute ideological lockstep to ever longer laundry lists of approved realities, enforced with the rigor of religious movements punishing apostates. See the classic feminists no-platformed at colleges because they said men with male organs but a female identity shouldn't get women's awards over real women.
   Social justice is fascism in the name of protecting hurt feelings, giving greatest moral weight to whomever is higher on the victim-hood hierarchy, while giving themselves permission to bully or outright assault those who disagree with them in the name of those victim groups. And that is true Nazi Brownshirt behavior.

      Think their feelings trump free speech? You do realize that Donald Trump on the conservative side of things wants to broaden slander laws and has clauses in his employment contracts forbidding employees from saying anything negative about him. lol

      Doug
      PC from the liberals have already trumped and chilled free speech. Your comment is too vague, what is your point?

      You see this with liberals demanding others be silent because they are offended, all while calling conservative views hate as they threaten "haters" with physical violence. The term cry-bullies is very apt.
