Can we set the record straight on what political correctness really is? It's not worrying about everything you say and not saying half of the English dictionary anymore. If you're confused about it at all, this is all it is: If someone says they don't like you doing or saying something, don't do that or say that to them anymore. If I told you I don't like when you call me Jules, because my name is Julio, you would understand. All of a sudden people get weird when you say, "I don't like it when you say the N word." That's when conservatives get all, "POLITICAL CORRECTNESS! YOU'RE TAKING MY FREE SPEECH!"
Democrats don't care so much about being politically correct as if that were some kind of shackle to free speech. We're just cognisant that there are words and actions that hurt others.
