Political correctness was pretty big in the 90's except it was headed by soccer moms and "concerned parents."

Then it mellowed out a bit in the 00's.

Then the 10's rolled around and PC came back with a vengeance. Except instead of by soccer moms (who are all old now), it's by millennials...the very victims of the 90's political correctness who hated it!

What the hell happened? The world sure is funny >_>

This pretty much. Plus Skyrim and it's collection of mods introduced the modding community to all types of casuals and they got hooked kirlia

Plus, anything on X1 is on PC anyway, as is almost anything on PS4.

Recession happened
People took refuge in colleges, getting degrees in anything, while waiting for the market to recover.
Everyone had those gen ed sociology classes.
In this climate, you one up someone/rise in status by being even more PC than someone else.
A few cycles of this and we're noticing that air conditioners are indeed kinda sexist
There still aren't many jobs that are perceived as worthwhile/ever lead to something worthwhile
Add in a dash of human tribalism blaming other tribes for bad circumstances

Nazis started to get emboldened and for some reason conservatives started viewing them as their sons.

It's just the regular moralistic outrage

60's, can't trust the man, man
70's, drugs are bad
80's, satanic panic
90's, mtv and vidya, think of the children
00's, war on terror
10's, I'm offended

Fuck knows what people will bitch about next decade.
