I find it kind of interesting... since it tends to be the same people who say "political correctness has gone mad"! who resent having opinions called out that are, at least in perception, racist or bigoted, or ignorant... or any combination of them.

Even an earlier post referred to liberals as 'know-it-alls' - if you expand that out... it's not exactly positive.

Such words should be used with discretion, and in general, very parsimoniously. Most are used too often.

I agree with that, I think the right should be there to use them if someone says something that justifies it. But they lose a good quantity of weight if they're overused.
