It’s funny how it’s never about politics, only about good ideas. The names “blacklist” and “whitelist” were perfectly fine to describe the completely innocuous things they are, and everyone had no problem understanding them for hundreds of years. All of the sudden they’re “unclear” and “not very descriptive”, and we need to pick names that are “informative and meaningful”. Weird, the timing of that determination. I would respect the people advocating for this stuff a lot more if they weren’t blatantly using doublespeak to my face
