A reader left a link in a comment, and I found it rather interesting.
The Origins of Political Correctness
Where does all this stuff that you’ve heard about this morning – the victim feminism, the gay rights movement, the invented statistics, the rewritten history, the lies, the demands, all the rest of it – where does it come from? For the first time in our history, Americans have to be fearful of what they say, of what they write, and of what they think. They have to be afraid of using the wrong word, a word denounced as offensive or insensitive, or racist, sexist, or homophobic.
A really interesting read, go check it out.
It really makes me want to say how I really feel more than I ever have just because of this ever spreading epidemic, or disease, called political correctness…
I don’t hold back anymore and I’ll take those labels. It’s better than being a sissified, politically correct, non back bone having, cowardly libber, barking moonbat.

Since the other side never holds back, why should we?
