People will complain about political correctness, but this is just the market and intellectual property law in action.

In my experience, the ‘left’ doesn’t want the public sphere to become coddled and inoffensive. Advertisers and media companies do. It’s risk aversion.

Ideally, our shared cultural legacy would not be subject to the whims of corporate executives.

I don't think advertisers and media care if you their consumers are rightist or leftist as long as they consume and the company find out what they are willing to pay for, be it weapons, "organic" food, propaganda t-shirts, survivalist stuff or magic stones.
