Actually anyone who thinks they "own" a cat is pretty crazy.

The label "politically correct" is a con-trick, and the term is in my experience far more used by people making fun of it than by people propagating it. Maybe it's different in other places.

When we try to avoid using language in a way that encourage people to hate and despise each other, or that makes people feel under attack, that is a matter of common courtesy and common sense, not "political correctness".

There are two types of people who make it their business to go beyond that, and who rely on this absurd label "politically correct" as a mechanism for manipulating people.

On the one hand there are those whose purpose is to undermine that kind of common courtesy and common sense.

And on the other hand there are those who are intent on exploiting the existence of intolerance as a tool for personal advancement and as a weapon against rivals.

And in practice these two type of people are allies.
