Absolutely. They didn't see an end to the definition of "acceptable queer". The rest of us did. Hence election 2016.
"Methinks the man doth protest too much." (paraphrased)
I done being insulted by people who expect me to smile and give them civility that they don't give me.
I am a republican, as are most of my friends. NONE of them or I, are racists nor misogynists nor xenophobes.
More and more Americans have had enough of how phony and absurd and cowardly PC is.
Just like those who push it.
Good.

`Methinks you read what I just wrote, and you didn't understand it at all, because the implications would cause your tiny brain to explode.

`...."According to the report, 25 percent of Americans are traditional or devoted conservatives, and their views are far outside the American mainstream. Some 8 percent of Americans are progressive activists, and their views are even less typical. By contrast, the two-thirds of Americans who don’t belong to either extreme constitute an “exhausted majority.” Their members “share a sense of fatigue with our polarized national conversation, a willingness to be flexible in their political viewpoints, and a lack of voice in the national conversation.”
Most members of the “exhausted majority,” and then some, dislike political correctness. Among the general population, a full 80 percent believe that “political correctness is a problem in our country.” Even young people are uncomfortable with it, including 74 percent ages 24 to 29, and 79 percent under age 24. On this particular issue, the woke are in a clear minority across all ages".... Source

Hollywood and the entertainment media are the ones behind pushing the PC culture. This is followed by a heavy hand from politicians and others to forcefully conform to a new order. However well intentioned as it may seem to be, I don't like to be forced to do, think or say anything. Some things are common sense; don't say hurtful things to people. Be kind to people. But when it comes to forcing me, or anyone else for that matter, to accept things they don't agree with in the name of political correctness, that's going to cause blowback. The election tump is one example of this.
I may lean left but that hardly means I'm going to roll over for PC, especially if I feel it's being forced.

One thing you prove, with age, does not come wisdom...or civility.
`Naw, with age, you basically lose patience with stupidity... My point stands, though... the GOP has gotten very good at getting white people to vote against their own interests by playing on their racial fears. Trump just put the poison in concentrated form.But people like you and Stormy Mac will get on here and whine about PC.
`I done being insulted by people who expect me to smile and give them civility that they don't give me.I am a republican, as are most of my friends. NONE of them or I, are racists nor misogynists nor xenophobes.Would you like me to now insult you?
You seriously FEEL insulted by words in an online political discussion forum?
You mean the one where Hillary won by 3 million votes, and no one talked about transgender at all, because Trump has trans and gay friends.
If anything, 2016 shows that homophobia is a good thing to drop, because Trump didn't talk about it and he kind of won with Russian help.
`I AM insulted by insults. That's what insults DO. That is what YOU are DOING, when you INSULT white men.Your pretense otherwise, is either you being very oblivious, or very dishonest.YOu call me "angry" as though it is something wrong with ME, and then express surprise that I "feel" insulted, by insults.

Do you also curl into the fetal position when it's a cloudy day and you wanted sun instead? The world is a harsh place for snowflakes for sure. You're a product of the "everybody gets a trophy" generation. The most valuable thing a child learns from playing team sports is that at any given time you can either be a winner or a loser...and life still goes on. You can come back to win another day. The winning is the lesser of the two lessons.
I had to toughen up despite the endless insults slung my way in life; not the least of which right here at USMB. If I can get through it, so can you. You don't like my opinion so your ilk feels justified beating me up? Fine, just don't cry crocodile tears when the fan blows the shit back the other way.

No, I am a product of the generation where you libs are rude assholes to people like me, and then wonder why we are fucking tired of your shit. It is your ilk that has been feeling justified beating up people for disagreeing, or getting them fired, or ruining their careers or lives, or even imprisoning them. It is MY ilk that has begun to fight back, and this is the shit blowing back on you now....And it is just getting started asshole.

I'm a free-speech advocate. You are....?

Then wtf are you doing on the LEft?
Coming from you, that means nothing, intellectual that is. Aside from the fact that you live here (over 100,000 posts) I'm surprised some of the knowledge here hasn't rubbed off on you. Of course, as always, you are welcome to your own opinions.
Yeah. Nobody talked about deranged males allowed/forced in girls’ bathrooms at schools as the dem mandate. Not publicly at least. Because the yoke of PC fear kept them from talking.
Trump May have unavoidably been photographed with one or two or twenty of NY’s demented icons but that’s not the same as signing an executive order forcing little girls to endure deranged or otherwise cunning boys in their locker rooms at school.
The voters disgusted by both chose the lesser of two evils. Privately. Behind the curtain at their local polls. Without saying much at all about their stunned visceral shock.
