> Everything needs balance of course. No, not everything. e.g. scientific facts don't need to be balanced with self-serving quackery. >PC-ness is all about hiding the symptoms and not addressing the cause I don't consider myself racist or sexist. I don't believe I've lost anything by being inhibited from making racist or sexist jokes. I've lost literally nothing. I presume that racists/sexists will continue to be so, whether they make such jokes or not. I also very strongly suspect that they'll still be identifiable as such by their other actions. However, if someone is not acting in any way that could be construed as racist/sexist, then what they are thinking in the privacy of their heads is irrelevant. The important outcome is to ensure that others are not disadvantaged through racism/sexism. If we are to be judged on our thoughts, then very few would be judged well. That's why we judge on deeds. And speech is a deed.
