A function of the brain?
No, it's some Americans ripping a fart, back in the early 80ies, if I'm not mistaken. And when Americans rip a fart, it usually drifts over the ocean. So that's pretty much the birth of Political Correctness. No brains involved.

Political correctness isn't an invention made by any specific country, it's simply people taking measures to not offend or disadvantage any group. It can get ridiculous because people can be offended by anything and people are often naturally disadvantaged in comarison to one another.
I think the whole thing is too complex to say would I rather go with or without it.
I don't understand political correctness when it comes to individual words being used. And I think religions can cause people to be offended irrationally by things in a very stubborn way.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
