I believe we're in the midst of a political correctness bubble. Just like all the other bubbles you see in various aspects of society, they all burst at some point.



I hope...but we've been on the PC bubble since the 1960s. I'm not so sure the bubble is going to burst. Or, rather, when the bubble bursts I fear it will be at a time of extreme social unrest. I think people are choosing to be willfully blind about the dangers present in the American political and societal environment.

Quite literally our country and traditional way of life is under attack.

Eventually enough people are going to get fed up with walking on eggshells all the time trying not to offend people, the bubble will burst, and we can start to get back to a sense of normalcy.



I fear the bubble bursting will herald the beginning of another Civil War. Politicians have so successfully demonized free thought and encouraged division that Americans view other Americans as "the enemy".

Dangerous times.

The reason I think the bubble will eventually burst is the rise of social media. In the 60s, you could make a racial or sexist joke at work and nobody batted an eye.

Now people can lose their jobs just for stating their opinion on Facebook while they're sitting at home on their own couch.
