Yes, but as with anything, you get extremists at both ends. People see that it goes too far and find that ridiculous, and their answer is that we shouldn't bother considering these things at all, that everyone should just do whatever they want, that anyone disliking it is "ridiculous" and that ANY suggestion that people consider what they say before they say it is "PC gone mad" (usually with the caveat that is its an issue that's relevant to them personally, then it IS suddenly important).

As with most things in life, the answer lies somewhere in the middle. It can go too far, but if you go too far back the other way, then it won't go far enough and Poundland will be stocking liquorice sweets called "Li'l N*****s" and we'll have Auschwitz themed amusement park rides.

Though I honest to God wouldn't be surprised if some people would be fine with that. "It's good to remember the bad parts of history!"
