We're literally getting silenced and having our speech taken from us because of words invented within the last 150 years or so . They should be all thrown away.
Words used to describe concepts that existed before them are interesting to me because the concept of believing that people of other races are inferior to your race is as old as humanity itself but apparently we didn’t have a word to describe it until 1903.
I don’t know if we should throw the words away because the concepts behind these words existed before them, but I understand the idea of “these words have been used to subvert society so I hate them”
