I'm surprised master/slave's the hill you want to die on - it's the one instance where the old terminology really is just bizarre jargon that's being replaced with words that are a direct, common-language description of what they do.
- gvjddbnvdrbv 6y agoWhat is the replacement word for master/slave? I genuinely don't know because this aspect of English newspeak hasn't made it to my country yet.
- vianneychevalie 6y agoI really don't want to die on this hill! It's an example of a behavior I'd engage in if the wokepatrol wasn't there. I don't even speak English at work, I speak French, and we commonly use the words "maître" and "esclave" in that instance. Whenever any work-environment friction will arise, I'll stop using those words for sure, I value my job more than I value terminology.
