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.
I mean I hope so? One of the top offensive terms was wheelchair bound..
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.
They want to be called "wheeled individual " as being wheelchair bound denotes that they're restricted /s
