All cultures whose language isn't widespread is pretty insular. English, French, and German are all pretty PC in terms of racism and political speach.
German for a seperate reason. English and french are lingua francas of the world, so there's quite a bit of cultural exchange. German on the other hand is more because of the guilt of WWII still being felt by a majority of people to this date.

However, seeing how insular a particular culture is can be pretty eye opening too, so give and take I guess.
Allows someone to see what the zeitgeist of a culture can be. What someone from that culture may think subconciously and what their biases may be.

That's one of the reasons I want to learn Japanese.
And because I'm a filthy weeb who wants to watch anime without subs and to understand cultural references.
