ITT: UP gets offended by good points.
Consumption is not a politically combative act — refraining from consumption even less so.

You know 61% of ethnic minorities think political correctness is a problem, right?  At least, according to a survey by Fairleigh Dickinson University.

I'm really not sure what that is meant to prove. Also I'm sorry about this but given your track record could you please provide a link to the survey?

If you look at it logically, cannibalism has great potential to simultaneously solve our overpopulation and food shortage problems.

True, but that doesn't make their complaints invalid.

Is 1,026 people a big enough sample size?

There's a big ol' fallacy. The old "this problem doesn't matter because that problem is worse" nonsense. I can't for the life of me remember its Latin title, though.

I think it's called the "appeal to worse problems," but I'm not sure.

No. It's not even a promille of the American population.

In my opinion, this particular example is more like "this problem doesn't matter because it's only a problem if you deliberately go out of your way to be an asshole."

More importantly it has nothing to do with Ethnic Minorities, they are simply random US citizens. The 61% was of the entire poll response, not ethnic minorities. However even if that were correct, I am still at a loss as to what the point is?

I'm not sure what image you're looking at, but the one in this thread quite clearly states that violating social taboos in other places has worse consequences than doing so here, therefore political correctness doesn't matter. Either I missed something huge, or it says nothing whatsoever about people going out of their way to be assholes.
