Is it time to stop saying 'aloha' and other culturally sensitive words out of context?

In that case I demand liberals stop using the word “tolerant” because it doesn’t mean what they think it does.

How do you say “Grow up!” In jibberish? Oh, I’ll ask “Joe!”

For people who advocate for these cultural rules, I think it is time for “boot meet a$$”!

“Is it time to ...?”

Just STFU, Dave.

Does that mean I can’t say “wazzup” anymore too?

Was wondering if ole Maile Arvin realizes that guys wanting “their pronouns” to be “she/her”, or females as “he/him” or either wanting to be “they/them” ... or “marriage” includes man/man and woman/woman ... is a mockery to billions of people and should not be used?

Another busy body control freak, fake “influencer”.

How about this, (poster makes rude gesture) David Oliver, and don’t tell me what to say or not to say. If this continues the way it’s going, it will become a crime to say hello to a non-White in his language.

(But of course the reverse will not be true)

Words have multiple meanings. The use of Aloha as a greeting these many years has if nothing else added an additional meaning to the definition appearing in the article. So it is fine to use it as a simple greeting.
