So uterus is too gendered to use, but we’re supposed to call menstrual periods uterine bleeding? Makes perfect sense. Couldn’t even get to the bottom of their own list before they out-woke themselves. 

 

According to their list, shouldn't it be "cyclical bleeding of internal organs through external genitals and outer folds?"

Citing racial bias, San Francisco will end release of mug shots:

 

https://www.wivb.com/news/citing-racial-bias-san-francisco-will-end-release-of-mug-shots/?utm_campaign=socialflow&utm_medium=referral&utm_source=facebook.com

 

Sounds perfectly sane and reasonable.  This is fine.

 

From the article: "San Francisco police will stop releasing the mug shots of people who have been arrested unless they pose a threat to the public, as part of an effort to stop perpetuating racial stereotypes, the city’s police chief announced Wednesday."

 

So, is San Francisco alleging that all their criminals are minorities?

 

That seems racist....

By allowing people to $#@& wherever they choose, the city council has elevated the humble Dookie  to honorary status as city flower of San Francisco.

Maybe the opposite? They don't want to provide proof that Antifa is mostly woke white kids with a major guilt complex?

So (obviously) in New-Think, this MIGHT offend someone.
 
 
Liberalism is a mental disease.

So...the "tribal land that once belonged to the Lakota tribe" (as per: https://www.lakotamall.com/history-and-ancestry/)

 

Quote

By 1775 all the Lakota sects were settled in the high plains and a year later they defeated the Cheyenne people and captured the Black Hills (Paha Sapa) and made it their home.

 

Should the Cheyenne now try to cancel the Lakotas? And who did the Cheyenne take the land from?

JON CALDERA: Cancel culture feeling its oats; stop feeding it.

What happened to those liberals who were appalled by book-burnings and McCarthy-era blacklisting?

 

They are now silent as the Cancel Culture feeds on an ***** of being perpetually offended and demanding destruction of all that is an affront to the new enlightened sensibilities.

 

There is a direct line from the years of our complacent acceptance of college speech codes, cancelling conservative speakers on campus, de-platforming conservative voices online, the PC police language enforcement in media, schools and entertainment to the wide-spread intolerance violently playing out on our streets today.

 

The progressives who run the institutions that form our culture (media, entertainment and education) have instilled the value that if you find something offensive or hurtful it is your duty to rip it down, stifle it, berate it until it is wiped away.

 

The golden, classical liberal value of tolerance has turned into the progressive mandate for re-education.

 

Read the whole thing.

LOL - wouldn’t that be something.

 

 

But seriously, there’s been calls for them to rename themselves for like 20 years now.  It wouldn’t surprise me that much.  

 

But then it begs the question, “what’s next?”. Where do we draw the line between what’s offensive and what’s not?  Should huge, ‘evil’ corporations withdrawing their support be the tipping point?
