A friend of mine declares that “political correctness is a synonym for moral cowardice” while another friend says it’s nothing more than the morals of the political left. Which means that political incorrectness means moral courage and the morals of the political right.

What about you? Do you think the expression “politically correct” or “politically incorrect” has any value in public rhetoric? What do such expressions mean to you?
What is your best example of something that is “politically correct” that you think is silly? Or the other way around?
