Would it have been okay if he reversed it and said People of Color?
Yes, that is an accepted phrase today.
That’s what I thought.
What’s the point you’re trying to make?
It’s a question. Nothing more than that.
So if you already thought that the accepted phrase today was “People of Color,” then what was the purpose of asking that question?
Progressives change the name of the cohort every few years, I was just checking.
Does that mean you’re opposed to calling people how they state they prefer to be called because you perceive it as a progressive ploy and you don’t like progressives?
Not at all. It was just a question.
