Slave is just a USA thing, like many others. Let the rest of the world be please! https://www.reddit.com/r/kubernetes/comments/o4h1fq/using_go_instead_of_yaml_

  And the holocaust was just a Europe thing, but I’d still choose not to use that word to describe a technical concept to an American audience.

    What if the package name contained some kind of blasphemy, should that be allowed? Because this could be very offensive in many places. What irks people is the presumption that the entire world (or at least the entire Anglosphere) should learn American history and then alter their use of language to conform to it. And that it ends up being a kind of linguistic annexation of the Internet where everybody has to make an effort to not offend Americans but Americans make little effort to not offend the rest of the world.
