Sea Stars? People on the west coast have called them Starfish for a really long time. Must be an east coast thing.

“Sea Stars? People on the west coast have called them Starfish for a really long time. Must be an east coast thing.”

No, it's really just the same phenomenon of saying Pluto is not a planet. A while back a cabal of cucked “ biologists” decided that the term “sea stars” was more accurate than “starfish” because starfish technically are not “fish”.

I call it “virtue-signaling taxonomy”.
