To the left of this there's a different list, "use more of these"

DEI hire
woke
...

Edit: This is a (poor) attempt on a sarcastic take, because when a teacher starts banning words like that, the next thought would be if they have a positive list?

Edit - misunderstood what you were saying. I'm sorry for the aggression in my comment.

Edit: I should've asked what they meant before replying. My bad for misunderstanding

I think he was implying that the same people who would want a list like this banning words like these would support enforcing the use of the above terms

Gotcha. I think I can see that now. But it was a bit of a stretch for me. lol

Normally the people that use "DEI hire" or "woke" are making "fun" of people that use those terms and using it ironically or incorrectly but I guess I can see how ppl can think those terms have been accepted as positive to say on the right and negative on the left (tho I dont fully agree, I still use woke like I did 5 or so yrs ago even if it confuses some ppl)

Glad I held back on all the other stuff I wanted to say 😅 I definitely need to work on asking people what they mean first. It's crazy how I didn't think there was any other way of looking at this one. lol
