So tell me, how many people have to be offended for a change to be made? Because obviously you will never find a word that doesn't offend anyone. So where is the compromise? I know that the VAST MAJORITY of people wanting this change here are white, including the OP. I am POSITIVE their motivation is nothing beyond virtue signaling.

And on a second note, this is why COC are harmful. They are just a way to justify injecting agendas and coopting projects. There shouldn't be a mandate of "inclusive language" to begin with.
