Discussion on: Inclusive Language in Slack

Your quote: "if a bot tells me not to use the word "blacklist", I will start looking for another job".

I was pointing out that either that bot's answer hurts you a lot (which is fine) or your job motivation is very fragile.

At the end is just an automatic program which invites you to use a slightly more inclusive language.
It's fine to agree or disagree, but is it really so bad to let you change job?

As I mentioned elsewhere, I was being hyperbolic. I wouldn't change jobs just because of something like this, but it would definitely be a red flag.
