An actual example from one of those tweets:
INCLUSIVE WARNING
Some of these words may not be inclusive to all readers. Try instead:
'property owner' or 'proprietor'
Those are not suitable alternatives for the word 'landlord'. The word has meaning that the others don't. Trying to delete it from our language is regressive and oppressive.
If Google's new 'service' is going to start training people like this, I hate it.
INCLUSIVE WARNING
Some of these words may not be inclusive to all readers. Try instead:
'utitlity' or 'benefit'
Sorry. If Google's new 'benefit'...
- rootusrootus 5y agoThe best part of that example is the idea that 'landlord' is bad but 'property owner' is good. What? Tell that to people whose ancestors were property. What a crazy world we are trying to create.
