You look well intentioned, but I cannot not ignore how “pray” you've fallen
for these tricks.

Your view ignores two crucial facts[1].

The first fact is: “communication is more effective when it isn't
sidetracked by discussions of how offensive the wording is”. Well... this
was **my** complaint to begin with. It wasn't me who suddenly promoted the
“SJW's cabinet of acceptable opinion” ways with a “this language is
non-inclusive” flag.

Second fact is: You either agree with this bullshit or you're against it.
You obviously didn't raise voice when this bullshit began here, but you're
now trying to make piece and pragmatic and all else. This only shows you're
for it.

If you stay quiet when the SJW paradise promoters push their agenda but
voice about being understandable and teach how to comply with this
censorship in the opposite scenario, the result will be very obvious. Do I
really need to spell the result?

A friendly reminder of what you do not oppose to:

I'd use the label scary, not sad. Even technical lists of people who
*solve* actual issues are now being infested by this plague. It used to be
in social “sciences” only.

[1] These are facts, not opinions.
