Maybe that's why this election came as a surprise to you, lots of people are simply scared to speak their minds because they don't want to be politically incorrect.
In my humble opinion, the whole notion of political correctedness screams, "shut up. You're wrong, we're right and if you don't accept this, we'll ruin you.", ie, a form of silencing. Unless and until people become understanding and are willing to explain their stance in a purely adult manner without screaming "you fucking white male", this trend will continue.
"Political correctness" is being respectful of other people. No more, no less. Anyone that whines about being called out for being disrespectful to other people is an asshole. No more, no less.
The same champions of political correctness are the ones who are willing to call people racist for little to no reason. I don't know about you, but I find being called a racist very very insulting and disrespectful. I've been called a racist tons of times by these politically correct morons for my views on Islam, which is a religion and ideology and not a race. Political correctness is normally just a shield to be able to say whatever you want and try to stifle what other people want to say. Fuck political correctness.
