re: #106 researchok

There can be quite a lot of pitfalls in discourse about culture, so it’s necessary to find the balance: not to engage in unsubstantiated overgeneralizations (which blend right into racism) as well as not to water it down completely so it becomes useless (and problematic issues are simply swept under the rug). I would say PC serves as a counterbalance to overgeneralization and it is in fact a positive development in light of recent historical experience, just not when it’s taken too far. And no, I can’t define how far is “too far”. I guess everybody decides for themselves.
