I think liberals take the PC overboard too much. It is more about understanding a person's point and their language than the term used. Here is a comedian that jokes about the term "midget." Looks like the video won't directly post, so here is the link... www.videobash.com/video_show/midget-please-243605 |

I think there is a certain level of PC which is important, which is basically just common decency. Don't use slurs, respect others identities, don't be a bigot, etc. But this SJW (tumblr...*shudder*) culture makes a joke out of the important stuff, and can take it too far.
(Note: didn't see the video because my tablet is glitching, so this is just a general response)

Yeah, there is common decency. I think the big point is trying to understand the intent. Just because one uses the PC term in a bigoted rant doesn't make them less racist...
Basically the video is named Brad Williams. He is a little person that uses the word midget a lot and because of that a bunch of little people were protesting outside his show. He argues that "dwarf" and "little person" sound worse than the word "midget."
