I am old enough and have seen enough to know the difference between the two.
This ad is trivial, but I have seen people actually accused of being pc for objecting when someone says one race is inferior to the others. That's the textbook definition of racism, and saying that calling it racist is just pc nonsense is disgusting.

I also had to point out that I wasn't just being pc when I told a guy that I didn't appreciate his use of the term "Jew him down" in a private conversation with me. His use of the term when talking to a Jew was just plain rude.
