Re: Where did "anti-PC" backlash come from?

...?

And alt-right/anti-SJ people cant't be authoritarians, too? There's a difference between being able to speak your mind (which no one stops you from) and being protected from people criticizing you and your beliefs, which is what you seem to want.

Of course they can, and they ARE. They are the same exact thing as SJWs, just the flip side of the coin.

But they haven't been the ones with the social currency. I know you probably don't see it this way, but current culture favors the left - the media, celebrities, the academy are all enforcers of progressive ideology. And it is the *enforcement* that people are taking issue with, so much that they will align themselves with the same devil in different clothing if it offers them relief.

Authoritarianism is a term that IMO is overused. It implies a government system where people are actively being hunted down and silenced for their beliefs. Tumblr users are not a government. Twitter is not a government. Many liberals, including on this site, disagree with "SJW" tactics. The actual government (as opposed to businesses, who legally can fire and censor people by law) has done nothing to directly suppress (i.e, lock up, directly censor, actively hunt down) right-wingers and their ability to speak their beliefs unless those people have hurt or threatened others. Right-wingers won't be rounded up in the streets, the Von Mises Institute won't be dissolved, and FOX won't been shut down.

Right-wing celebrities, news sources, politicians, etc. are allowed to exist, make their comments as per freedom of speech, and aren't silenced in any way, unless you count criticism, boycotts, etc. as being silenced rather than an expression of freedom of speech, too. Individual left-leaning media, celebrities, academics, people, etc. have a right to express their opinions, as do right-leaning ones. No one stops conservative writers from doing their writing on their own territory.

And I would actually debate the mainstream media being "left"-slanted to any major degree, especially compared to the rightism of, say, FOX (which, again, is allowed to exist).

Yes, current culture favors not hating sexual and racial minorities you fucking buffoon. Surprisingly, being unable to hold your tongue and refrain from insulting people around you based on that sort of thing tends to make you look shitty!
