Are you proud to be an American? What a bigot!
Here's Stanford's "harmful language" list.
You'll notice one particularly offensive word on the document.
"I'm proud to be a U.S. citizen, where at least I know I'll be told what to say by woke universities!"
Hmm. Doesn't have the same ring to it.
You gotta love the other words on that page. Stanford says you should refer to Hispanics as Latinx despite the fact that Hispanics HATE the term.
They also say you should say "entitled white" instead of "Karen," because that rolls off the tongue.
🤣🤣🤣
(A Karen very clearly made this list.)
From the WSJ:
The Elimination of Harmful Language Initiative is a "multi-phase" project of Stanford's IT leaders. The list took "18 months of collaboration with stakeholder groups" to produce, the university tells us. We can't imagine what's next, except that it will surely involve more make-work for more administrators, whose proliferation has driven much of the rise in college tuition and student debt. For 16,937 students, Stanford lists 2,288 faculty and 15,750 administrative staff.
The list was prefaced with (to use another forbidden word) a trigger warning: "This website contains language that is offensive or harmful. Please engage with this website at your own pace."
Some reactions:
Now look at more "harmful" words on this very real list!
The word "she" is literally forbidden!!
