I'm defending Trump on something. His arguments are called racist. Don't split hairs. If his argument is racist, he's racist.
Donald Trump's speeches are racist.
Donald Trump's behavior is racist.
If you defend Donald Trump you are defending racist speech and racist behavior.
When Donald Trump says he would like to punch someone in the face it is evidence that he condones violence.
When you say Islam is the devil's own invention then that is an Islamophobic assertion.
When you make Islamophobic statements and defend a person who constantly makes racist statement, condones violence acts like a racist by having the Secret Service send all the Black students out of his rally can you be surprised when folk might think you are a potentially violent racist homophobic and Islamophobic individual?

Faith demonstrates innuendo for us.

What do you call Saul Alinsky, the "community organizer" which is most certainly a euphemism for some form of Marxism?
Thanks Faith, a prefect example of innuendo and smear attacks.

Re: You want fact, here's fact
I have been a community organizer for several churches, a food bank and a few charity drives. I suppose that is a euphemism for some form of Marxism?

Depends on your tactics, whether you seek to force your will on everybody else while organizing your community.
Do you understand even basic English Faith?
How could I force my will on anyone?
I can present arguments and try to persuade them to my position, but how can I force them?
How can the Carnegie Foundation force their will on anyone?
How can the Communist Workers Party of America force their will on anyone?
Sheesh.

Definition of Political Correct
Anything that disagrees with Faith and suggests the positions and beliefs Faith holds are wrong.

The evidence is all on the thread for anybody with half a brain cell and the good will to follow the argument.
If you have actually presented any evidence or really anything except unsupported assertion and innuendo you should be able to provide links to those posts.

Lind made the connections, I made the connections from my own experience. PC is Marxist.
No, not true. Lind made the assertion. You made the assertion. What is being asked for is the evidence to support the assertion.

LOL
Sorry Faith but if there actually is evidence and not just more unsupported assertions then perhaps you can provide links to the posts where you present the evidence.

Re: Real political correctness
Absolutely. There are great examples out there of "Political Correct" tyranny. Consider "Pro Life" as though that was not also true of "Pro Choice" supporters.
Consider "Abortion is murder" claims.
Look at the professor fired for pointing out that Jews, Muslims and Christians worship the same god.
I continually go back over "Language in Thought and Action" and even there you can see the effects of "Politically Correct" when you look at the redaction done with each new edition.
