I worked for a Fortune 500 corporation for 11 years. Just about everything I did there was "politically correct". The important thing, the crucial thing, is to always know that you are just acting. Don't ever let it become the real you.

Great comments. Stacey Abrams even said this explicitly, that her main driver for her political activism was the resentment of how she treated as am unpopular and unattractive teenager. So she is literally living the Revenge Of The Nerds, and its an ugly outcome. She would be far better served with some psychotherapy to resolve he ancient internal conflicts.

It would US better too. Yes, resentment drive a lot of current day politics and Lenin well knew that stoking resentment is what destroys societies and causes revolutions.

Oh yes, it's definitely full of resentment and one I've seen plenty of through my first full year getting up close and personal with a global media corporation (name redacted for obvious reasons). Use the correct "language," then they'll consider you a compassionate individual. Imply deviation in any way, shape, or form, considering the "personal accounts" that I've heard plenty of them tell, they'll look down on and ridicule those with such audacity. They truly are activists before anything else and it's one disturbing fact I had to pick up on.

Humans lived on earth for about 10 and a half million years before criminal governments were invented and I suppose there were occasional resentments between individuals even back then. But it was nothing like the resentments that have developed since the invention of government with its endless sources of power to squabble over. Power is always evil no matter who has it. But there is a continuum of power from the utter murderous ruthlessness of communism to the free market where there is no power over the innocent and people live by voluntary mutually beneficial trade.
