So "sanity", "crazy" and "handicapped" are offensive language, but "mad" is a preferred alternative for something else?
> victim - person who has experienced..., person who has been impacted by...
Person who has been impacted by murder? Many of those suggestions are so verbose and impersonal.
Those alternatives would just become the new slurs, just like people are called Karen nowadays this list would make people call others "boring" instead of retard. And then we have one problem more: how do you then call something boring without sounding offensive?
I find this list very unenlightened.
- imgabe 4y ago"mad" in the US English sense of angry, not in the UK English sense of crazy.
