One word the university deems inappropriate is "American."

GOOD. The new Right can claim it and the mantle of Western Civ, and the Left can have Euro-socialism and Maoism and all the identity politics it wants. Probably should use the UN and forum flags instead of Stars and Stripes too, and that would cover it.

"I'm American, by God. I'm as American as anybody from Tennessee."

I'm proud to be an American. **** these tiny-brained *******s.

Wait… how is this ok?


And "Karen" is out. Instead, use "demanding or entitled white woman."

Liberals are always trying to foist newspeak on us and it always sounds absolutely ruhtarded. This time is no exception.

Oh...I do, even in person. My Giant MexiHonkiness comes with a lot of privileges...being able to be snarky in person, without fear, is one of them.

Nice to see Stanford deflating the value of their diploma.

It is really amazing when you realize we live in a time where we've cured cancer, eliminated poverty, harnessed energy into a safe reactor the size of a thimble, and ended spam of all delivery methods.

Yep. We've done all of these, right? Surely we have so few real problems left that we've now moved on to piddly **** like Stanford is cranking out, right?

I'm an American IT guy and they want me to refer to users as clients?

I'm still fighting to eradicate the use of Master and Slave.

Client / Server have specific meanings already.

A lot of times we call a Client an Agent but there is no other term for user except for dumbass or a-hole.

And the reason user is discouraged is because of the connotation that you might be referring to a druggie... Can we still call them Potheads? Methheads? Speed Freaks? Coke Fiends?

Or is user reserved as their preferred pronoun now?

Paper Americans are ruining this nation.

It is. And it's not close.

If words connected to slavery are outlawed at Stanford like the word grandfather, is the word democrat outlawed as well?

Most American institutions of higher education need to be burned to the ground and the land salted

… and copycat Rice tries to emulate them. Even sent football coach to us, who for three years tries the run up the gut game with soft, slow 2 star lineman. Biggest dumbass on the planet, outside of Biden and his followers.

Shhhhh - they are not supposed to know - the history department has removed the KKK from the Democrats.

President Biden was never mentored by a Democrat Klansman when he joined the Senate either.

He never put Kamala on a bus either ……

Americans shouldn't say they're "American." Instead, they should say they are "U.S. citizens" because "American" often refers only to "people from the United States only, thereby insinuating that the U.S. is the most important country in the Americas."

Ummm…the US is the most important country in the world. Why are this leftist academics so stupid?

Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will scar you for life.

Honest answer.

Because they want to be able to vacation overseas and call it work.

Attend conferences, mentor study abroad programs, etc.

That's what people with useless degrees and no desire to work outside the home do, they troll discussion boards, and write positive or negative reviews and are paid bashers or pumpers on Stocktwits or Yahoo finance. Just useless folks, with useless attitudes that happen to know how to write and know just enough to be dangerous to the naive.

So this means that America won the World Cup?

Think about it. Stanford actually paid someone to come up with this nonsense.

Paper US citizens, big dawg.

Does this mean we can finally call all the people here illegally "non -citizens"?

Stanford is a joke. Every time I hear someone claim that school produces people better than any other school makes me vomit.

Just think of the premise that is the basis of that claim. Professors, the dorms, the food, etc that yield really outstanding grads. Oh, I should mention, Harvard, and the other North East schools.

It is really the student, the standards of the school and of course the professors. I had mostly great professors at TAMU and my grad degree from another school. I did attend continuing education at a few California schools and some from the East. Guess what several had professors from TAMU, SMU, UT, UH, etc.

Until very recently though, Stanford had seem to hold onto the old bars more than others. That's why you heard what you did --- it hung on longer than most, and was less politicized and still academic. This marks a big shift, a major downturn for them.

That was my perception, too. This is disappointing but not shocking.

Whitelist and blacklist is already being pushed out. Absolute clown world. Only racists look at "whitelist" and think it implies that white people are good and "blacklist" and think it implies that black people are bad. Learned a lot about the people telling me we should use "allowlist" and "blocklist".

They were one of the first schools to decide their mascot (Indian) was offensive and changed to a color (cardinal like an Ivy league wannabe) and a tree. They were politically correct way back in the 1960s.

There is only one possible response to this:
