Enough not to have people harassing me daily for something I said a certain way... not enough not to forget about it now and then.
I laugh and say things people take the wrong way.

@SW-User PC is a simple solution to a complex problem imo. I think the best thing would be for everyone to build a defence against the effects of negative or harmful things people say. Then there's no need for PC because people are able to cope with the frustration that normally arises with it.
Anyway i know it's all theoretical and even if it would happen it would likely take a lot of years maybe even hundreds, and would require enourmous effort put into it as well. :)

@Axelerator I think it's all spiralled out of control and people taking mileage out of sensitivity because they are enabled.

@SW-User I agree, it ends up becoming an excuse that's far too easy to use.
And it will likely keep growing, leading to more and more restrictions as people make them up.
