You've taken the stance that people who do not use inclusive language are not genuinely caring and empathetic. People I know who are minorities in tech seem to not care very much. Most have more pressing issues like handling the practical implications of mat-leave or pushing for equitable resume reviews. The people I know who care the most about this are also universally not minorities.

It's bizarre to me that strong sapir-wharf seems to be the dominant thought in 2022.



I've found there is a world of difference between virtue signalers and people who actually want to help with real problems. The virtue signalers only care when they can look good or bludgeon others over the head. Actual help is tiring.
