Regardless of who invented it, it’s the notion of changing how one speaks, and it’s vocabulary, to gain control over people. Don’t abide by the change/are against it? Then you’re a racist fool, like all the others. It’s a move towards further tribalism. This isn’t about a functionally better term for it. It’s a push during the mob rage over names, statues, and symbols. They already want to shutdown stem, first for a day, then more.

Let’s not debate these symbols, in coherent discourse, let’s label those opposed as racist, and demand change or else more chaos will ensue.
