That page has to be satire... right?

The whole "police your language, so there's no chance anyone could ever be offended" idea is such an oppressive path to a more equal society.

Isn't that just a fact? Like, I get why words such as "removed" should be avoided due to it being an insult et all, but wheelchair bound? English is a funny language so I might be missing something.
