Or, is she right that political correctness has made liberals completely unable to understand the morality of traditional conservative values?
Yes. But so what they are all based in traditional racist bias and theocratic exceptionalism.

Re: A personal anecdote
I read once that the more educated and the more one travels and seeks out new expediences and cultures. The more tolerant one becomes and thus the more accepting and liberal over time.
It is isolation and ignorance that imo breeds intolerance. It is resistance to change and judgmental attitudes That, at least to me, smack of conservatism.
As I get older I become more liberal.
Edited by 1.61803, : changed get to become.
