American, grandfather, brave and master: Words Stanford University includes in its index of 'harmful language' because they are 'ableist, sexist or racist'
Stanford University has published a list of 'harmful language' to eliminate
It says there alternative options for 'racist, violent and biased' terms used
The initiative will remove the 'harmful' words from its IT systems and websites
Stanford University has published an index of 'harmful language' that it wants to eliminate because the terms are 'ableist, ageist or racist' — including the word American — as it calls for US citizen to be used instead.
The University revealed the plan in May, and wants to remove the words from its IT systems and websites, with grandfather, brave and master are also on the list.
The Elimination of Harmful Language Initiative will also aim to educate people about the impact that 'racist, violent and biased' words have.
It has listed 10 sections where 'harmful' language can occur under the headings: ableist, ageism, colonialism, culturally appropriative, gender-based, imprecise language, institutionalized racism, person-first, violent and additional considerations.

All the things these idiots want you to do make me stick with the opposite, which is what I have always chosen.
Nice to know people are perpetually triggered by an ever-expanding choice of words and phrases.
Yet another reason to use the 'bad' ones above at every opportunity.

And these left-wing nutjobs have thrown around the word ‘racist’ so many times it’s utterly meaningless now
…
Local MLS has a whole list of words and phrases not allowed in a published listing.
I got called out for "near the hospital" :rolleyes".
You would have thought I posted "white neighborhood, al you people of color stay the fuk out" :Jeff '79:
Currently "master" bedroom is still acceptable.
You can always spot a woke/lib agent when she/he/it/they/them...whatev, post "primary" bedroom. FFS :ack:

I was describing some work on a simple brake system the other day, mentioned the slave cylinder, and got a raised eyebrow in return. :Jeff '79:

They forgot the word irrelevance. That's going to be a problem since they're faced with it every time they see their reflection.
I'm a proud American grandfather, so that kills two birds with one stone. When I was working, I'd walk in, put in my man hours and write a white paper when needed. I was brave enough to serve my country and retired from the Air Force with the rank of Senior Master Sergeant.
Most importantly, **** JOE BIDEN and **** STANFORD!

You two drink that much milk? I have a hard time drinking/using half that amount before it sours. No such problem with my Bourbon or Scotch, though, especially this time of year!!:shots:

As crazy as it sounds, some people from other parts of the Americas do actually get butthurt when Americans refer to themselves as "Americans." Not gonna stop me from saying it though. :D
