@nberlat.bsky.social complaining about inclusive language is the kind of statement that has a high risk of not aging well. "Why do we have to call Them <minimally inclusive term>? It's ridiculous! <Horrific slur> is perfectly proper English and exactly what every normal person uses!" You're likely in a few years to look more like Strom Thurman than William Safire. Why take the gamble?
