That’s exactly right. The purpose was/is to control the narrative.

Out of curiosity, where’d you pick up that little nugget?

I agree. Political correctness started out as Critical Theory, as a way to quiet and shut down any opposition to Marxism. It morphed into Political Correctness so as not to tarnish it's name with Marxism. But it has became the antithesis of freedom and liberty that this country stands for. Political correctness has become a way to not only stop opposing speech but to impose the speech of the left onto the culture as a whole.

The liberals use not only political correctness, but so-called "dog whistle" words that the left claim mean racist or racism but they have also come up with these phoney-baloney euphemisms that are almost laughable in their deception. The name of the "Affordable" Care Act, which is in no way affordable. The most recent one I heard was the White House calling illegals caught up in the court-ordered hold on Obama's executive amnesty, as "Americans-in-waiting." Or Joe Biden, speaking to a group of guests marking Black History Month, saying that the top one-percenters need to have their "wealth emancipated" so the government can use it to help the middle class.

All of this speech by the left is communist in nature. The liberals claim not, but if it walks like a commie, talks like a commie....well, in my mind, it is commie.
