“Under the self-righteous banner of making sure people don’t have to deal with certain uncomfortable concepts, we are most-likely leaving them more vulnerable to manipulation and indoctrination.”

Wow! Very well written with worthy persuasive arguments. And yes, I do agree that political correctness and social pressure to banish hate speech is a form of ostracizing people, with the intent of manipulating them. Hate, oppositional politics, and even moral decay need to be dealt with, but not at the cost of big brother manipulation.

Loved the article. Keep writing.
