<|assistant|>
Being politically correct is important because it emphasizes respect and consideration towards marginalized communities by using their preferred terms and language. It can promote understanding, acceptance, and inclusivity by helping to reduce the use of offensive or degrading language and symbols. Being politically correct is a way to show understanding, compassion and respect for differences and recognizing other perspectives.
