I'm sure all that is true and borne of experience. Sometimes I'm concerned when a topic is adjacent to serious issues of bias, and nobody is talking about it.

I'm sure all that is true and borne of experience. Sometimes I'm concerned when a topic is adjacent to serious issues of bias, and nobody is talking about it. We can get very comfortable not talking about issues that don't impact us. Using the R-word is often unfair, waters down the meaning of the word and provokes feelings of being wrongly viewed. But being the victim of bias can be worse than all that. If we err on the side of being alert to potential bias especially if we are not the victim, then maybe that's not unhealthy.
