Mealy-mouthed attempt at getting people to avoid superficial expressions of bigotry, which ends up debasing the language without dealing with the stupidity underlying most hates and fears. Merely ends up giving the bigots one more thing to snarl at and, yes, it really can impose a tyranny of its own. Many examples of allegedly common politically correct speech are urban myths ... which we could still have done without.

You're not a member of the Undead, you are biometrically challenged.
You're not an android, you are an artificial person.

An American style of shallow political thought, defense, or debate that is based on the use of vague understandings of historical events, actions taken by branches of government, or other sources of quasi-valid information, of which are often used in combination with logical fallacies in a disingenuous or desperate manner to try to undermine the thought, defense, or debate strategy of a perceived political opponent in the hope that that opponent will not know the veracity of the information or claim provided, and that the logical fallacy used will distract them from the quality of the information or claim.
She became thoroughly disgusted with the obtuseness of the man's character as she listened to him argue his meme politics to another man in the deli.

When you keep posting pictures or commenting about the winning candidate who you happened to vote for in an election. The reverse of political whining.
He keeps posting about his candidate winning. So tired of the political gloating. They won, it's done, get on w/ life.
