Conservative political correctness

[Statilius the Epicurean]

Other than intimidating people for exercising their free speech by not standing during the national anthem, what are other examples of right-wing political correctness in the US?

[GeorgiaModerate]

Nitpicking the spelling of "conservative" in thread titles?

Getting triggered over people saying happy holidays is pretty dumb.

[Don Vito Corleone]

Calling anyone who criticizes Israel in any way an Anti-Semite comes to mind.

[Inmate Trump]

They really are the true snowflakes.

[Chancellor Tanterterg]

All lives matter

[136or142]

As James Carville said "many conservatives are religiously correct."

[GoTfan]

Well getting triggered at someone not standing for the flag springs to mind. So does calling torture 'enhanced interrogation'

[Mr. Reactionary]

Conflating someone's opinion on whether or not a particular war is a good idea with that person's feelings towards generic US soldiers.

[Absentee Voting Ghost of Ruin]

Insisting that everyone play along publicly with the cult-like military hero-worship. (Even as the troops themselves often get the shaft. Especially after they've served.)

Couldn't have said it better myself. All of this and probably a lot more.

The incessant pearl-clutching over literally everything to do with the LGBT+ community, especially when it comes to media visibility and representation. Four words of pure steer-derived manure for the ages: THINK OF THE CHILDREN

[HAnnA MArin County]

Yeah, the way the right wingers get their support hoses in wads over "Happy Holidays" is pretty immature. Go back to your safe spaces.

With regards to the flag, remember how they all threw a hissy fit when Obama didn't have the flag lapel pin on his suit and the time he didn't put his hand over his heart at some rally in Iowa when the Pledge of Allegiance was being performed? Talk about a bunch of triggered snowflakes.

Not sure if it counts as conservative political correctness, but their incessant whining about how Christians are being persecuted now that married gay people have the same rights as married straight people is pretty pathetic. You not being able to persecute people doesn't mean that you're being persecuted, nor are your "religious freedoms" being eroded. You all are NOT the victims just because you're losing your political clout to bully people into agreeing with your flawed and narrow-minded interpretations of your Bible. Stop trying to Kim Davis yourselves into martyrs just because more and more people are turning away from the church (and it's not because of the big bad evil secular liberal government, it's mostly because of hypocritical self-righteous holier than thou people like you. Glass houses and stones.)

Their faux disguise as the true champions for free speech goes in there somewhere. They got all bent out of shape and cried "government persecution of free speech!" when A&E was about to pull the plug on Duck Dynasty after that redneck made all those anti-gay comments, but they were perfectly okay when country music radio stations and outlets turned the Dixie Chicks into pariahs after they spoke out against Dubya and the war. They also got all riled up after Carrie Underwood came out in support of marriage equality. You all are no more the champions of free speech than liberals are.

I never see social conservatives try to silence social liberals.  Conservatives have their problems, but on social issues the right is almost always better behaved and respectful.

As long as my "homosexual" neck is under your boot or attached to a chain dragging behind your pickup truck.  So well behaved and respectful.    Just shut your complicit, self-satisfied gob.

Social Conservatives show respect to their opponents by letting them speak, even though they believe social liberals are on the wrong side of the right to live.  Conservative political correctness exists, but not on social issues.

Any news that praises women and immigrants as job creators and leaders of tomorrow seem to make many conservatives decry them as the product of affirmative action contrived to marginalize white men.
