Political correctness is a tool for liberals to arrest debate, questioning and criticism. Political correctness is a strategy for suppressing not just freedom of speech but all individual freedom.

Political correctness-—a psycho-spiritual tool wielded by the depraved human predators for four primary purposes: capture of human wills for purposes of domination, degradation, and evil

These are the ones most likely to resort to name calling and intolerance, often after pointing out how judgmental anyone is who disagree with them.

in all fairness, it must be pointed out that this behavior is not limited to the progressive left...

I’ve likened it to Scientology. Both are obstinate in their beliefs and if you disagree you are ridiculed and disconnected.

Political Correctness is the occult manner by which fascism is being made palatable to presumably anti-fascists. The feudal globalist Nazi “New World Order” have near-identical aims as the Gaia worshiping globalists Marxists- world government. Leftists are blind to their enabling of the Nazi Internationale via their mania for victim identification and pathological quantities of empathy.

“In my study of communist societies, I came to the conclusion that the purpose of communist propaganda was not to persuade or convince, not to inform, but to humiliate; and therefore, the less it corresponded to reality the better. When people are forced to remain silent when they are being told the most obvious lies, or even worse when they are forced to repeat the lies themselves, they lose once and for all their sense of probity. To assent to obvious lies is...in some small way to become evil oneself. One's standing to resist anything is thus eroded, and even destroyed. A society of emasculated liars is easy to control. I think if you examine political correctness, it has the same effect and is intended to.” ― Theodore Dalrymple

Political correctness is cultural Marxism.

It was invented by the Left to stifle opposing views and to shame people into agreeing with them.

I've always taken the position that since I am not a politician, I do not have to be "politically correct".

If liberals dare tell me I can't say something they don't agree with, I just tell them to "f**k off".

So far, this tack seems to be working for me.

In contrast to the author, I would say that there are 4 types of liberals. The first type are the elites (those in power and those who identify with them and who desire to be in power). They want power and often the money that comes with it. Three of the author’s categories belong to this group. The second type are the do-gooder liberals who have simply have been brainwashed by the media. The third type are the greedy cronies who want to get rich from their connections in the government. They are more concerned about getting money than getting power. The fourth type are the greedy moochers who want to get the free stuff that the elites have promised.

There is nothing new about political correctness.

“Be not intimidated...nor suffer yourselves to be wheedled out of your liberties by any pretense of politeness, delicacy, or decency. These, as they are often used, are but three different names for hypocrisy, chicanery and cowardice.” - John Adams
