What is PoC in this context?

Probably 'proof of concept'

Oh ok. There are a lot of Facebook boomers in my area so I hear it when they complain about "political correctness" and how now they have to say "pock" instead of "nigger". I find it funny how they can't seem to bring themselves to say any polite terminology without either intentionally saying it wrong, or adding tone to make it sound derogatory and undermining the whole purpose of the term.

But yeah got a lot of people messing with what first comes to mind for a lot of these acronym and acronym variants.
