Since the late 1980s, the term 'political correctness,' abbreviated PC, has been widely used by American liberals and radicals. 'PC' was a term that described language or behavior that was meant to avoid offense to the socially marginalized. In the 1990s, therefore, one would frequently hear, 'Is it politically correct?' or 'Is he politically correct?' At that time, you should be very careful not to say or do anything 'politically incorrect.'Initially, therefore, the intention of PC was good, and it made people avoid 'forms of expression or action that are perceived to exclude, marginalize or insult groups of people who are socially disadvantaged or discriminated against,' as Oxford Languages Dictionary defines the term.
