[QUOTE="Jock Ewing Fan, post: 328984, member: 40536"] You make an important point. Overcorrecting is not acceptable because innocent people have their lives thrown into upheaval, simply because of misunderstanding, words out of context, or even outright lies. A false accusation is wrong, no matter who makes it. Calling people racist or sexist merely indicates that the accuser can't make their point on actual facts and evidence, so they create the straw man and make outrageous, unproven allegations. When special classes are created, it weakens the whole idea of equal treatment. Yes, I know that the wealthy elites will always manipulate the system and usually prevail, but the real victims are often working class/ lower middle class individuals who struggle to provide for their families (especially now), and lack the resources to fight meritless allegations. It is wrong to mistreat anyone, but it is also true that there are those whose agendas and bank accounts thrive on these "overcorrections" [/QUOTE]
