* [[Seanbaby]] enlisted Frosty the Snowman to combat the War on Christmas in [http://www.cracked.com/blog/frosty-snowman-declares-war-war-christmas/ this comic] from Cracked. What Frosty learns in his quest is '''A:''' the people whining about how offensive and exclusionary the word "Christmas" is are doing so on behalf of people who don't exist, and '''B:''' just let them whine, because Christmas is the most unkillable cultural achievement since pornography and it's not going anywhere.
* This is inverted by [[Moviebob]] in his Big Picture video [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/the-big-picture/2783-Correctitude "Correctitude"], where he claims that it's political ''in''correctness that's gone mad. More specifically, he feels that "PC" has been turned into a [[The War On Straw|strawman]] by people trying to defend their sexism and bigotry.
* Part of the reason why [[Vivian James]] came to be in the first place is in response to the growing presence of political correctness and ideological slander in video games and elsewhere. Which coincidentally or not comes into conflict with and contradicts [[Moviebob]]'s claims above.
