Why Being PC is BS and How It’s Stunting Our Growth

I just read a great article by Bart Cleveland in Advertising Age that discusses how sensitive and easily offended we’ve all become. What a shame. Political correctness has run amok in our society and threatens to kill our sense of humor. Can’t any of us laugh at ourselves anymore? So many great creative ideas in PR and advertising get tossed aside because they may offend or are not inclusive enough.  If we were truly open minded and inclusive, we wouldn’t be so scared to poke fun. Lighten up people. Being PC, self-righteous and sanctimonious is so . . . last year.
