The first recollection I have of extreme PC is what happened to the comedian Andrew Dice Clay (born Andrew Clay Silverstein; September 29, 1957). He was a lot like the Marx Brothers or The Three Stooges, either people loved or hated them, there was no middle ground. The attacks on Clay started during the George Herbert Walker Bush regime which lasted from January 20, 1989 to January 20, 1993.

From the Andrew Dice Clay Wikipedia page:

Clay is known for a style of comedy that has sparked controversy and much media coverage. He is loved by some and reviled by others, who feel that his act is crude, misogynistic, racist, homophobic and degrading. Clay has been widely opposed by women's rights groups and he has been banned from many radio and television shows for his explicit language and socially and politically charged humor. MTV banned him for life in 1989 for reciting what he called "adult nursery rhymes" during the annual Video Music Awards ceremony (September 6, 1989). In 2011 the ban was lifted by MTV.

In 1990, Clay was invited to guest host the weekly comedy TV show Saturday Night Live. Cast member Nora Dunn declared her refusal to ever appear on the same broadcast as Clay and did not participate in the episode of his guest appearance (May 12). SNL alumnus Jon Lovitz discussed Dunn's boycott of the show in detail during an episode of “The ABC’s of SNL” with director Kevin Smith. "It's the last show of the season. Nora...she caused a lot of trouble. [She] was very hard to get along with, and they weren't going to ask her back, anyway...And this is how the press works. And I'm telling you I'm on the inside of this. They don't know the story. It's like she's just doing it to get press. It's her last hurrah. They're not asking her back onto the show."

Invited musical guest Sinéad O'Connor also boycotted Clay's appearance.

In a 2006 interview with CNN, Clay was asked by the interviewer if he had been running a gym since his comedy career diminished. He then proceeded, before walking out of the interview, to go on a profanity laced tirade that the news anchors never know what they are talking about.

Seems like it's bee all downhill from there. If a little boy acts like a little boy should, he's chemically castrated & lobotomized with Ritalin or other drugs. If a man acts like a man used to, he becomes an outcast or is charged with sexual harassment.

I'm pretty sure that most of the things that I did or said during the 1980s as a young man are now considered felonies. I miss those times. I used to like "Miami Vice" too. So kill me.
