You just can't make this stuff up. CNN, which is supposed to be a news organization, supposedly capable of research, has now decided that a whole slew of terms are "racist", and should be eliminated. Remember the nonsense about fried chicken and watermelon? Well, it's getting worse! They've gone full bore stupid.
CNN: ‘Master Bedroom’ Carries Racist Connotations
Be prepared; the idiocy is deep. They even admit that the terms they target are not actually rooted in racism, but at the same time claim that they are "subconsciously racialized", meaning they can claim you are racist and don't know it. Yes, same way they claim all white people are "racist" just because they are white.
This is beyond stupid. The terms targeted include "cakewalk", which is just a contest for a cake, and has no racial ties whatsoever. Of course, many sites are now claiming just such ties, though they aren't anything I've ever read before.
Orwell warned about this.
