Sensible times - isn't everything coloured, even the colour white? Nobody has completely white skin anyway... None of the liberal attempts at PC language engineering make sense, and it's notable that the people who are supposed to benefit from these periodic changes are rarely/never the ones a) calling for them or b) using them themselves. They gave up on trying to affect material reality, so were left with trying to mess about with symbols instead, not understanding that the symbols (ie: language) are reactive and downstream of reality & experience. A pointless, impossible project: what good does (for example) banning racial epithets do if you don't challenge the economic & social systems that drive people to view others as inferiors to be exploited & dehumanised in the first place? All that will happen is the racist energy will get diverted into a new channel.
