I never said that was the purpose of PC. If you read my original post, I gave specific case scenarios. Many members here give straight talk to each other, if you are here long enough to witness it. And sometimes, I think it is necessary when people are very stuck in an unhealthy or toxic behavior pattern. People also come here for point blank advice on their situation. Often, when that happens people do give straight talk. It happens all the time on here. Most people are just trying to help in the way they know how to and sometimes, that means being very honest and/or direct with their feedback and/or opinions.
