I for one am totally shocked that this bullshit story was drummed up by a bullshit right-wing source for bullshit purposes. The very first line in the story is bullshit:
A Massachusetts university compiled a growing list of words and phrases it considers “oppressive” and discouraged people from using them.
Come on, people, let’s do better. The next time you see a seemingly ridiculous story about political correctness, just assume it’s bullshit and move on.
