We live in a liberal society, and neither a particular group nor "the rest of us" should be expected to "shut the hell up."

- colanderman 11y agoI didn't say we are expected to, I said it behooves us to. Anyone who argues about the PC-ness of some action related to group X without actually asking anyone from group X about it is doing nothing but talking out of their ass. (How could they do otherwise, without the cultural knowledge that comes only from being part of group X?) If they wish not to look like an uninformed idiot, it behooves them to shut up until they know what an actual person from group X thinks. Anything else is pretentious.
