    When you refer to being for or against political correctness in your research questions it's unclear whether you mean for or against the labeling of things as politically correct, or for or against things believed to be "politically correct."

    Also, your second question is "When did the meaning of PC change?" This assumes that it has changed? So, a more fundamental question might be "Has the meaning of PC changed and, if so, how did it change and when did that change take place?

    Your question "Which is more important, quality or diversity?" has the underlying assumption that one is more important than the other. Both can be important without necessarily being on a gradient of importance.

    Question 25 seems to suggest that race and gender is put into every discussion of art or media. You'll need to be careful when answering questions like this not to "cherry pick" the examples that back it up.

    Question 29 is interesting but the question is "from whose perspective"?

When did the meaning of PC changed?

 The term "Political Correctness" appeared in a U.S. Supreme Court decision about the boundaries of federal jurisdiction in 1793. It has been used to describe what is politically wise, and it has been employed as ironic self-mockery.   However, leftists in the 1970s and 1980s used the term as self-critical, ironic satire. It used as a joke among leftists.  Later, the term was started to be used as a criticism of New Left modern in the late 20th century and popularized by a number of articles in The New York Times and other media.

Which is important; quality or diversity?/Is being historically accurate offensive to some people?/Is putting race and sexism into every discussion, media and art is "politically correct"?

  In my personal opinion, both of them are very important. Recently, the video game industry has become more diverse than ever. Not only the women's social progress, people from all over the country has been supporting video game industry.   Games that has many characters such as Apex Legends and Overwatch, all of them are from different country, has different sex, religions and it is very diverse. Of course the diversity in gaming is a good thing, but not everything is good.  A good example is Witcher 3 incident. The game was criticized because all the character in the game was white. However, the Witcher 3 is set in Poland, created by Polish man and it is based on Polish mythology and European Folklore. So criticizing that there is no Black or Asian character in Witcher is an mistake because that is the culture and the demographic in the game. You don't have to put colored skinned character in the game if it doesn't make sense. Putting race and sexism into eve...
