I read something recently about the right wings pivot from the cold war to PC Culture.

It's one of those words like "Pro Abortion" or "Racism" that no one will copt to being for.


I find Political Correctness to be a mild annoyance rather than, as people like Newt Gingrinch, Trump or even David Brooks, consider a big problem in this country.

I had a homegirl who works at a young company who was chewed out because she used the term "guys" in a meeting to refer to the mixed group. Anyone who insists on correcting a person for using the term "guy" is as annoying as the person who wants to correct how I pronounce Gyyro.
