It’s pretty dangerous to go against the culture these days. I’ve been singled out for trying to stay out of PC culture. Backed into a coroner of either actively agree with everything PC or “consequences”.

"Backed into a coroner" is, I presume, a typo, but it does very well at communicating the sense of danger...

I thought it wss a play on words for sure

It's okay, most of them don't walk the walk. They're all about it right up to the point that you suggest that poor people deserve decent jobs with a decent commute. Then they go straight to frothing at the mouth and incoherent shouting.

What I'm saying is turn it around on them.

If I said something bad about "red necks" or other such subcultures people would get angry and indignant. But somehow it's become OK to make disparaging comments like that about San Franciscans.

Rednecks and San Franciscans aren't protected classes of people.

Huh? I wasn't talking about legal stuff.

It matters. People won't make fun of protected classes because they might be cancelled and possibly even land in jail some day if some people get their way with our laws. Anything not against the law or against the cultural norms is free game for making fun of.

As someone living in the Midwest, I assure you that we do get slandered far more often than San Franciscans and no one bats an eye.

Huh, I don't think I've ever heard any bad midwestern stereotypes.
