Exactly. A lot of stores even have sections for hair products marked “Women of Color”
What’s the difference between a “colored woman” and a “woman of color”? It’s all about people finding reasons to be offended and forcing apologies out of others so they can feel like they’re winning some battle the rest of us aren’t even interested in fighting. All I can say is the worst thing someone can do in these situations is apologize. Once they do, that’s when everyone starts to pile on and it never stops.
I've never seen that. I've seen "Ethnic" at Walmart and Bed Bath & Beyond.
Is "Ethnic" also considered derogatory? I can't keep up.
Exactly. Right on the nose. And in fact, I am convinced they change it every few years specifically so they can pounce on everyone who doesn't keep up. Literally, it's a set-up. The underlying goal is to make white people afraid to talk about any of it at all because if we do, the Offended League isn't going to listen to what we say but HOW WE SAY IT. That's how they hijack the discourse, and make everyone forget the topic and focus on whether the speaker is Holy enough to have an opinion.
And the loudest accusers are often white themselves! There's nothing a liberal white loves more than lighting into other white people. It's called playing Lefter Than Thou and it's the verbal version of the Knockout game.
Well said. It's an attempt to control others thru intimidation and guilt. Today's society is dominated by the conflict between the perpetually offended and eternally guilty.
