May I recommend this wonderful podcast on Cancel Culture? Basically the term is so distorted that it’s meaningless. The podcast is very well researched and if you haven’t heard “You’re Wrong About” you’re in for a treat. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/cancel-culture/id1380008439?i=1000524480233 https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/cancel-culture/id13800... As for “master” - nothing wrong with the word. It’s the context that shifts. No one lives in isolation and acknowledging the context shifts sometimes makes sense. Insinuating that people sensitive to the context are somehow criminalizing the ones who deny it’s existence is absurd.

Don't forget that there were people like Rich Salz who took their ball and ran home crying[0] because of a freaking word. Was this just a fit of temporary 2020-insanity that was going around? Nope - apparently 1 year on, it's still intolerably reeecist to have a "master key" in cryptography.[1] [0] https://twitter.com/FiloSottile/status/1279190119703085057 https://twitter.com/FiloSottile/status/1279190119703085057 [1] https://twitter.com/RichSalz/status/1435327330335997952 https://twitter.com/RichSalz/status/1435327330335997952
