It's called political correctness Roxy and its historically rooted in totalitarian thought.

(read Herbert Marcus's Repressive Tolerance; its considered one of the origins of political correctness. Although the book is no boogie man, it did leave me unsettled when I read it as a young Marxist.)

Basically it states that it is okay to censor views that are considered intolerant or repressive to others. If memory serves me correct I do believe it states Conservative views, but i could be wrong.

Here are the end results, some 45 years later.
