That seems a bit of an overreaction, doesn't it?

[systemvoltage → jfengel]

Using black justice as a pawn to further their own image and agenda? No. Not really. These realtors want to cash in on this bandwagon. I am disgusted, indeed.

[jfengel → systemvoltage]

Let me just thank you personally for the money I'm getting out of this. I went into Social Justice Warrioring for the feel-goods, but the buttload of cash is definitely a nice bonus.

[krferriter → systemvoltage]

Imagine being disgusted by the largest bedroom being accurately described as the "primary bedroom".

There's nothing objectionable about this.

[systemvoltage → krferriter]

I am not disgusted by the master/primary word game.

I am disgusted at corporations, companies and professionals tagging on the bandwagon with PC. It is just not genuine.

[sneak → systemvoltage]

It can be genuine, virtue signaling, and profitable all at once. They aren't mutually exclusive.

[efa → krferriter]

Purposely being obtuse?

[worik → systemvoltage]

That is quite cheap disgust, surely?

[InvertedRhodium → worik]

Disgust always is, is why humans partake in it so frequently.

[jgwil2 → systemvoltage]

More charitable reading would be that they don't want to offend potential customers. I mean, I guess that can be seen as "cashing in," but then all good customer service could be dismissed in the same fashion.

[vmception → jgwil2]

yeah, but how out of touch do you have to be to realize that the customers this would actually affect would not be offended.

its only the people that would be vicariously offended.

[jgwil2 → vmception]

From the perspective of a salesperson, does it matter who gets offended, or for what reason? They lose the sale either way.

[vmception → jgwil2]

It doesn’t matter for the salesperson

Its optimal for them to make up parts of houses and arbitrarily rename neighborhoods to attract the most people
