Squaw Valley ski resort to drop ‘squaw' from name
2020-08-26
"When the resort is named in conversation, what Fillmore hears is a barrage of slurs, she said. "All of a sudden people are asking if you ski and telling you about how they’re going to go ski, racial slur. ’Let’s go ski, racial slur,’" she said. 'People don’t even think twice about how that word is impacting the person they’re talking to.'"

So maybe Fillmore should consider identifying as something that is outrage-proof. But that would probably be attention-proofed as well.

The Commiefascists may not be winning but the're certainly running up the score.

#2  Is this a certain type of white person, being outraged on behalf of a group they look down on.
