      I’m really not. You can point to the actual root of the reactionary thought rather than relying on “dumb” and the like, which is at best a stand-in for that, and at worst ableism. This can only improve the communication of your point, if you actually have one.

      Whereas the Third Way blacklist is seeking to remove any discussion of or reference to systems of oppression.

        As I said, your accusation was senseless and absurdly accusatory, because your description of Third Way there (which is accurate) has nothing to do with people complaining about the word being banned, even if they are wrong for exactly the reason that you describe, because those two things are not remotely the same.
