Truth and political correctness cannot coexist, you either have what is true and right, or you have what's socially acceptable.

Grasshopper, If I say that excessive immigration from non congruent cultures, (such as from some Islamic countries) will impact negatively on our western culture and diminish my enjoyment and practice of the same, that would be seen as unPC and possibly even disingenuously howled down as racist.
But it is the truth.
It is your truth, not truth as supported by facts and reason.
I mean, do all "Western" people act and think alike? Are there no criminal and nutjobs in Western culture? Are all things Western good and noble?
So while we're all free to believe certain people, certain career and profession, certain religion etc. etc. are superior to this and that other traits and colour... just don't demean and apply those beliefs if it harm other people's right to also believe in the superiority, or at least the non-inferiority of their identities.
It's fine and good to see ourselves and our everything highly... it's another thing altogether to also believe that for us to be good mean the other non-us must be terrible and bad.
Genocide and endless war are fed by such believes. So while we might like to think and believe in our greatness, we might just be useful idiots in other people's plan to use our cash and have our names to the weapons that kill others - all to "defend" our way of life and whatever.
In fact, political correctness is speech designed to disguise true feelings. What someone thinks and says in private, vs what one says in public are often diametrically opposed, vis a vis, a lie.
While what someone thinks and says in private may not sometimes be supportable by fact, or even reasonable, for them it is their truth.
For example, many in the Islamic community speak their truth, but it could never be in a month of Sundays be considered politically correct (curiously they are never criticized for that by the PC brigade). Astonioshingly, ironically, it is considered politically incorrect to bag out this political incorrectness.
Grasshopper, PC is nothing more than a manipulation of the cultural narrative by the putative "elites" for political gain.
any publicity is ........
Freedom of speech is a human right for ALL of us.

Political correctness is just about getting your point across without trying to humiliate or offend anyone that you don't have to.
The way PC seems to operate in this country is that we should not make disparaging remarks against any minority regardless of whether they are true or not.

Someone who drops the N word, should be seen as an 4sshole, but not a criminal.
To use an analogy, adultery has a potentially greater capacity for psychological harm than calling someone a choge or a coon, yet out government is blase' about one, yet creates a criminal offense out of the other.
What criminal offence?
I've looked. No criminal offence there.
But one can be prosecuted under 18c correcr?
