"If you met the conditions that proved me right, then I'd be right". Well I don't, hence you're wrong, as I said

I said this: We'd all be happier if everyone was politically correct.

Which is saying if you "met the conditions" of being politically correct.

I did not say if you were forced to act politically correct. Two different things.

So literally I did say: "If you met the conditions that proved me right, then I'd be right" and you responded by completely ignoring that and introducing your own conditions.

You misunderstood. We're on the same page here.

> We'd all be happier if everyone was politically correct

Me 'being' politically correct doesn't mean me 'supporting' or 'enjoying' being politically correct. I don't, and 'being' politically correct makes me unhappy. I don't know how I can simplify further, but it does seem to be a semantic point.
