Maybe Will should have considered that before his TDS took over his soul.

I don’t cotton to the idea that uppity people can change out words like that.

Maybe there’s hope, if Will still has a good article in him, and the Post will publish it...

Why, that’s a mighty niggardly attitude to have, Bob. You should work on that.

I hear ya. It’s a tough row to hoe figuring out what’s ok and what isn’t.

I thought it was beyond satire when a man got fired for using the word “niggardly”, in its proper sense. But that was just the beginning.
To: nickcarraway
Well this is just great 👍

A black councilman here in Dallas got so worked up over a white councilman using the phrase “black hole” to describe wasted taxpayer money the black councilman organized protests and called for the white councilman to be fired

With the same reasoning I’ve heard we are not supposed to say black coffee anymore.
Are we supposed to say African-American coffee then?
To: RWGinger
I knew a young college kid years ago who thought that any use of euphemisms that involve the words ‘black’ or ‘dark’ to indicate fear, negativity, etc., was somehow racist.
I tried to explain that it’s very old, and probably goes back to man’s (!) fear of the darkness of night, during which he (!) has always been less safe; and it had nothing to do with racism.
He was a very intelligent young man; I hope he got over it.

You took the words...
George hastened demise with great vigor, and dares to complain about the results.

Conservatives accept the woke word changes. It was apparent that we had willingly given over control of the language to the Left when the switch of red and blue to designate conservatives and socialists was accepted and instituted instantly and with almost no comment and no protest.
