PW: Too funny. One of the downsides to the whole Political Correctness movement has been the stifling of not only legitimate criticism, but the lack of satire and parody.
People are so fearful of giving offense, or being categorized/characterized as bigots, homophobes or Nazis, that they say nothing and that breeds resentment and hateful behavior (like swastikas and KKK signs on lawn posters).
We need to get back to being able to say something is stupid if it is, or rightfully pointing out mistakes and errors in judgment, even if the person that made them is of color, or a woman, or gay or a midget. Jesus, we all take ourselves and our feelings waaaaaay too seriously now.
