Rebellion just like PC-ness?
I find it interesting how the rebellious spirit of "everyone should be able to say/do/think what they like" can easily slip into the ultra politically correct imposition of values that make it hard for people to voice strong views on anything meaningful.
I've lost count of the number of times people who think they are captain chaos are actually as oppressive as a lawyer in a double breasted tweed suit when it comes to closing down my attempts to have a strong view against anything. Being upbeat and FOR things is sometimes more permitted, but even that gets accused of bias etc. Stifling!
It's a bit like how communism can suddenly go full circle and become fascism etc.
