Abstract: Abstract Political correctness is a complex topic, if only because those who hold that something is politically correct are not inclined to be open to critical evaluation of the merits of their political correctness. Such unwillingness to entertain open discourse is a characteristic of all social systems with supreme values (see Bernholz, 1991, 1993); thus under communism questioning the politically correct position that the society was on the path to Marxist Utopia could result in confinement in an asylum for the insane.
