  GP saw an opportunity to be anti-woke and jumped on it. It's what passes for humor in some circles. Jump on a "woke" thing that is clearly ridiculous and no more than 0.001% of people agree with, offer it up as a strawman of PC culture, and use it to ridicule liberals. It's especially egregious here because it has nothing to do with the shared article, unless you consider any conversation on Feynman as a bridge to talk about modern political correctness wrt. to Feynman.

    It's not to ridicule liberals. I'm a liberal. It's to mock the illiberalism and totalitarianism that is replacing liberalism, and is increasingly flexing its power in our cultural institutions.

      How was that relevant to the article?
      • gorwell 5y ago
        Because it used an outdated term according to the new rules. Have you missed how many terms are being retired and renamed? git checkout master branch is a well known example here, but that's not a lone example and it'll continue until meeting resistance from its own side.

          What new rules specifically? Who has ever called for what your comment posted? It seems like you made up something to be mad about that didn’t happen, then commented on a completely unrelated article.
