When the word ‘slave’ disappears from our languages, we will all be slaves......................

Brilliant! That's it, in a nutshell. You are describing people who are all shell and no nuts.

This seems to be just in New York City where they are already half crazy. What worries me is that it could spread.

Go woke, go broke. Good luck fund raising on the bird society brand name.

Is there anyone from the past who can be honored for anything nowadays?

Did anyone from the 19th century have a 21st century politically correct conscience or worldview?

They set this up so that no organization or city or town or any public place can be named in honor of anyone from the past , because there is going to be something objectionable in the past of anyone who lived hundreds of years ago.

When will Columbus Ohio change its name?
When will Washington DC change its name?
When will Washington State change its name?
When will Columbia University change its name?
When will the District of Columbia change its name?

Kamala Harris’s ancestors owned slaves yet she’s still paid by taxpayers.

They gonna repay the Audobon family, with interest, of all the funds they put up to create the society? How about all the money it made over the last century?

Didn’t think so. But they will keep all of the fruits of the “evil man’s” labor, money and foresight, won’t they?

New York needs to change its name—it got its name when Charles II gave it to his brother the Duke of York (later King James II), who was involved in the African slave trade.

I’m sure I’ve heard historians claim that Audubon was black.

“NYC Bird Alliance”

NYC stands for New York City.

Who was “York” in New York?

The Internet Software Consortium (ISC), which develops the “Bind” DNS server (the one most widespread on the Internet), made the following important change to their software and documentation a few years ago:

What used to be called “master” and “slave” servers — useful for failure resistance, especially for larger organizations — are now called “primary” and “secondary” servers. (Note that servers are computers, not humans.)

Fortunately, they still allow the old terminology in the configuration files, so things still work (for now).

Other racists:

Margaret Sanger. Therefore Planned Parenthood must be shut down.

Sir Isaac Newton. Please divest yourselves of all technology developed since the beginning of the 19th Century.

For that matter Sir Francis Bacon was a racist. Please divest yourselves of all technology developed since the 16th Century.

Aristotle was a sexist as well as a racist. Please eliminate everything you have that resulted from the use of logic. Live in dirt and shyt on yourselves.

This is fun
