Is being equal a good thing?/Is being different a good thing?

  As I said, diversity is important. It will make your perspectives and life experience richer, less discrimination in the world and many more benefits. 

However, us humans liked discrimination. That is because of our instinct, we needed make that decision in order to live back in the old days. The nature of discrimination has been with us until now, and that is why bullying and racism occurs. 

 All of us know that discrimination isn't a good thing. Being equal to all kinds of people is important, but doing that too much is different. Dragging somebody down from a position of power to make it "equal" is too extreme. 

 As I said, being too radical and extreme is not "correct". See it from the both perspectives and then think how we can solve the problem.

What are the effects of PC? /What are the benefits from being "politically correct"? /Is being "politically correct" ruining something? /Is being "politically correct" taking away freedom from people?

   As I said, political correctness isn't a bad thing. Making a good society for all of us is a wonderful thing to do.   The problem is that it limits the range of the range of people's opinions. Jonathan Kay insist that human beings like the power to shut up other people and we could easily do that on internet these days. We could crowdsource censorship using SNS and criticize what they didn't like immediately. That will prevent people to say what they really want to say on the internet.  Being politically correct is not a bad thing, but what you do with it is important.

Why is PC being criticized?/What is "Social Justice Warrior" aka "SJW"?/ Why is "SJW" being criticized?/Is certain people becoming too aggressive trying to push and conform people to their ideology?

 Social Justice Warriors, aka SJWs, use political correctness as a weapon to criticize what they think is "politically incorrect". Social justice warrior (SJW) is a term used for an individual who promotes socially progressive and liberal views, including feminism, civil rights, gay and transgender rights. Most of the time, saying somebody is a SJW means that they are pursuing his/her personal validation rather than the actual "liberal" way of thinking.  So basically, it is not the political correctness itself that are being criticized but the SWJs, people who are using it as a weapon are instead.
