The opponents of political correctness always said they were crusaders against authoritarianism. In fact, anti-PC has paved the way for the populist authoritarianism now spreading everywhere. Trump is anti-political correctness gone mad.

In essence without PC there would be no 'populist authoritarianism'. In other words PC made it's bed and it now has to lie in a bed of anti-PC. .

PC supporters, by behaving in a manner in common with those they deride, have done no favours for the minority groups they proport to defend as they have created a backlash against them due to the way they have chosen to go about it.

They have tried to play the hero and tried to take the moral high ground whilst adopting the type of behaviour they claim to abhor. They have no one to blame but themselves if it has all gone 't**s-up'.
