Yes, the world is currently heavily controled by groups or sets of
people that feel they've been discriminated against in the past but
now the Politically Correct thing is to not say anything negative
about anyone in a 'group' (other than white heterosexual males).

If it's obvious somone in any of these groups (racial, females,
LGBQ..., etc..) is doing or saying something obviously wrong, if
you point it out they say you are attacking that whole group.

Somehow it has been forgotten that there are always idiots and losers,
hopefully in small numbers, in any large group of people you look at..
