No, people who take it to extremes. I remember a good few years back when Robert Kilroy-Silk had his chat show and they were discussing some sort of race-related issue and there was a very loud and opinionated "lefty" woman who had to have something to say about
everything. In principle her suggestions and notions weren't bad - she was anti-racism but she became more and more ridiculous, culminating at one point where the black guy sitting next to her spoke up about peoples' initial reactions to him in the street "...as a black man". When RK-S turned to her for an opinion she turned to the guy and said "Well I didn't even realise you were black".
There was a member on here once called "HatedByTheMail", he used to stumble over himself trying to show how PC he was, and one time some topic turned to 'chavs' and wanting to show how 'totally' non-judgemental and anti-labelling he was, when asked what he though of chavs he replied "I honestly don't know what that word means".
