Your answer is condescending and you failed to even attempt to understand what the study said.

Just because you managed to Google ONE definition of PC culture, it does not mean the people answering the study poll had the same thing in mind. Which is a bit of problem for methodology and the result itself. Especially in such a wide social topic like political correctness.

That's like saying "this study of people saying they like the red colour is worthless because they haven't defined what the red colour is"

PC has one definition, but of course you can make up others

> PC has one definition

And definitions are never complex, multifaceted or problematic, eh? Thank goodness language is so simple and clear.

Color doesn't even have unambiguous definitions. The XKCD color survey was a fun inquiry into this: https://blog.xkcd.com/2010/05/03/color-survey-results/
