Thank you twitter engineers. To the people trying to deflect, consider this as an opportunity to learn and progress.
So much of the tech language is filled with insensitivity.

It certainly was a relief for me ( I am a dark Indian) when SQLServer went from master/slave to publisher/subscriber. I don't have to second guess intonations when people say master/slave as a sly joke or a sincere discussion in tech meetings.
