What the author seems to be trying to say here is that there is always somebody that will be unhappy with what a leader has to say. 

In a healthy society, there are always opposing views that are designed to be discussed and debated at length. The eternal problem is that unfortunately, you can't please everybody.

Political correctness is a very controversial subject in that some people feel limited and unable to express views that may cause harm and damage to others. They claim that society holds them back from speaking their mind. It is very difficult to apply one definition to this concept as a whole because it is definitely influenced by your position on the matter.

It seems here that the question is designed to include your own analysis and a bit of your opinion, so be sure to add this as well as factual and generalized information.

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

identify the type of context clue (CONTENTIOUS) used in statement

Answer:

Restatement/Synonym Clues

Explanation:

Context clues are unknown words in a text, where the reader can understand the meaning through the context of the sentence in which these words are inserted. With this, the reading time and motivation to read are optimized, because the reader does not need to stop reading to look for the meaning of the word.

The phrase shown in the question above uses the word "contentious" as a context clue. This is because through the context of the sentence we can see that this word means something contrary and challenging.

This type of context clue is called Restatement/Synonym Clues, because it uses an unknown word in a simple and easy way.
