What if, in the future, "master" and "slave" would refer first to the current computer terms, and then only, after much thought, to the old practice we know ? Couldn't we change the first intended meaning of those words that best describes the relationship, without implying anything toward actual human slavery ? Similarly, as a non-American, when I hear/see the word nigga, it's always used as a word to show respect towards someone else [0], never to diminish the other person. I actually find that word nice-sounding, and I wouldn't want to stop using it because in some contexts it used to mean something else. For the original issue, if master/slave is an issue, I don't think we could ever find any politically corect replacement words that equally describe one entity that governs and other entities that listen and obey without asking questions.
