Hmm almost like this post is specifically about labels.
There’s a difference between identifying a group of people and then discussing how they act, vs trying to decide what is an identifier for a group of people.
I was expecting the former in this topic, but seeing just the ladder.
I’m with you. It’s feels like there is an intentional effort to muddy up situations like these that should be talked about with nuance and understanding instead with reductiveness and handwaving. We aren’t using labels as helpful shorthand, we’re using them as weapons of dismal, and I frankly don’t think this trend is without a nefarious architect.
