>/pol/ is short for "Politically Incorrect" but, despite the name, over time a certain culture has developed with its own norms of decency. If a thread is posted which does not conform to the party line, a hoard of fragile-minded sheep will post petulant complaints in hopes the moderators will remove it; most of the time succeeding. This has resulted in a board culture which can be described as politically correct

Beautifully said. I couldn't say it better. This board deserves more posters.
