We’ve always wondered what brilliant sociology professor comes up with wacko terms like “people of color,” “indigenous people,” and Latinx.” We have been confused by that last term, so here is the definition from Google AI: “Latinx is a gender-neutral or nonbinary term used as an alternative to “Latino” and “Latina” to be inclusive of people of Latin American descent who do not identify with the gender binary.”

Ok. Got that?

James Carville, a key strategist behind Bill Clinton’s 1992 election as president, has warned his fellow progressives to stop  adopting the politics and language of elitist “faculty lounges.” But they can’t help themselves.

The liberal think tank called Third Way believes that this kind of language has helped make the Democratic Party  brand “toxic across the country” because too many of its leaders “sound like the extreme, divisive, elitist, and obfuscatory, enforcers of wokeness.” So here are some of the terms they are urging liberals to STOP using:

privilege  … dialoguing … triggering … othering … microaggression  … body shaming … subverting norms … systems of oppression … cultural appropriation  … existential threat to the climate, democracy, whatever… the unhoused … food insecurity  … person who immigrated … birthing person … cisgender … heteronormative … patriarchy … LGBTQIA+ … incarcerated people..

“We are doing our best to get Democrats to talk like normal people,” says Matt Bennett, Third Way’s executive vice president.

He’s right. The left’s language is a turnoff to middle America. But an even bigger turnoff is their pro-tax, big government, soft on crime, anti-growth global warming agenda.
