antiPC

AntiPC is a term used to describe a movement or attitude that is opposed to the values and practices of PC culture. PC culture refers to a set of norms and expectations that emphasize politeness, sensitivity, and avoidance of controversy or offense.

The antiPC movement emerged in part as a reaction to what its proponents perceived as an overemphasis on PC culture, which they saw as stifling free speech and creativity. They argued that PC culture had created a culture of hypocrisy, where people were afraid to express their true opinions or engage in open and honest debate.

Proponents of antiPC often argue that PC culture has led to a form of "outrage-mongering," where people are quick to take offense and call for the punishment or silencing of those who disagree with them. They see this as a threat to free speech and the exchange of ideas.

AntiPC individuals and groups often claim to be promoting "free speech" and "honest debate," but critics argue that their actions and words often perpetuate hate speech and violate the principles of respect and tolerance that they claim to uphold. AntiPC views have been associated with the alt-right, a loose network of right-wing internet groups and personalities who promotevirulent anti-immigrant and anti-minority views.

It is worth noting that the term "antiPC" is often used in a way that is intentionally inflammatory or misleading. Critics of PC culture have argued that the term "PC" has become a scapegoat for broader social and cultural issues. However, the antiPC movement remains a significant force on the internet and in public discourse, with many proponents and critics debating its impact and implications.
