It is interesting how many treat bigoted words as more problematic than actions of bigotry
Or oppression in general.
It is a war of words irrespective of what's going on in the real world.
The emphasis often being to govern shame and absolve oneself of guilt by pointing at others, or listening to you point elsewhere, not to address actions with actions.
Bigotry in words is a symptom incomparable to murder and war crimes...but you will likely see people incredibly offended by the first , while they brush the second or extend temporary attention before moving to the next thing to feel emotional about.
Call me cynical if you wish. It is just a word.
