Political Correctness Is Destructive To Civil Discourse

Political correctness does not permit civil discourse because it forces everyone to test the political winds before saying anything.  Truthfulness in discourse is unacceptable.  It is tossed out the window.  Listening to and trying to understand other points of view is forbidden - self serving strongly held points of view of the politically correct police prevail, they are sacrosanct and not to be challenged..  We must adhere to political correctness dogma.  Anyone who says or even implies politically incorrect points of view is subject to being branded a racist, a homophobe, an idiot or some other degrading ogre, even fired from their jobs.  A society hamstrung by this corrosive atmosphere is a dying society...it will self destruct.  Here is just one of many, many examples.  http://unfilteredpatriot.com/white-reporter-suspended-for-black-fathers-commentary/   This has to stop.
