It's just all around sad. A shame. Heartbreaking. The very things which make us uniquely human are things humans want to stifle.
Stifle enough and carbon copies we become.

We are already carbon based so this will be easy.

The thing with this "PC BS" narrative is that every Tom, Dick and Harry has jumped onto the bandwagon.
You now have outright sexist, racist, homophobic clowns all screaming "oh I can't say what I think because it's PC"...
That's not even the case...
They're just sad that they're now known as the world's bigots and need to play the victim.
Is there "PC BS"?
Yes.
There is a hell of a lot more of the other though.
"I can't tell a woman she should be in the kitchen making babies"
"I can't compare homosexuality with paedophilia"
"I can't generalise all black people as thugs"
No, you can...
And we'll be here to call you a bigot.
Cry me a river.

I'm the most non politically correct guy you could meet. I'm sure that I offend somebody every day. In fact, I hate, no despise, political correctness. I see the value of saying what you mean and disposing of the Orwellian doublespeak that is all that political correctness encompasses.

50 years from now people will be in polyamorous relationships with flocks of geese and no one will be able to say that it's f# weird because we'll all be too afraid of being "tolerance-shamed" by an angry mob.
Hopefully this ridiculous culture won't last that long, though.

Sad indeed.
I often wonder what makes people think the Human Species is all that advanced.
"the Era of the Offended" started 10,000 years ago at least.
The Species is effectively herding itself into a giant rat cage.
I wonder what things will be like 10,000 years from now?
