" although some people still claim there's nothing wrong with it and use criticism of golliwogs as an example of political correctness gone mad (or possibly as a dog whistle for racist and anti-immigrant sentiment). And if you're lucky you can still buy toys in some of the more backward parts of the UK. "

"political correctness gone mad" "backward parts of the UK. "

are these phrases being used ironically? They seem inapproriately perjorative in a suposedly neutral article? — Unsigned, by: 86.166.104.230 / talk 05:10, 24 October 2018‎ (UTC)
