>You base that on what exactly?

Just about every other editorial on right leaning outlets that complain and moan about political correctness?

Oh, and actual self-identified right leaning HN/Redit users. Just ask, many of them will be quick to tell you (some version of) "political correctness is BS".

(To be clear, I know not all right-leaning people think this way, but a very large proportion do).

Just so I'm clear, are you arguing that avoiding political correctness is not a core tenet of a large part of the conservative base? I thought it was a badge of honor for many?

Also going around calling everyone snowflakes for being offended by whatever heinous thing they come out with that day.

i am arguing that who is politically correct depends on time and context. There was a time when the left was politically incorrect conpared to the mainstream. It has nothing to do with political observation.

"Political correctness" is complete garbage. This is an opinion shared by a wide variety of people across the political spectrum (as well as by the majority of people who eschew politics all together). Belief in free speech and free expression is not a "conservative" position - quite the opposite. Ironically (and unfortunately) the authoritarian identitarians who currently control the Democratic party and large portions of legacy media have pushed many people who believe in free speech towards Trump (or just out of the political system all together) with their toxic demands for adherence to "political correctness".

Since I didn't opine on whether "Political Correctness" is good or bad, none of your word salad has any relation to what I wrote.

Sorry, I won't bite. See if you can bait someone else.
