> I think we should get used to the idea of just letting stuff like this happen. What's the downside? Because in the end, actual progressive left thinkers could end up in a rice paddy with a tyre iron in the neck. This terminology platform seems to be very much pushed by those who feel they should be leftist intellectuals, but who don't quite cut it in the thinking department so instead they just grab the microphone and make up in volume what they lack in depth, labelling anyone, regardless of political view, who speaks out against them as the enemy of progress. Long term such actions are detrimental to the development of an actually better and fairer society. Short term it's just grating to see the very real plight of certain minorities being abused by opportunists for their own selfish ends, again.
