Well that's what I mean. I think a lot of people get put off from putting effort into understanding what all that stuff means because most people who value it come across as total self-righteous pricks. Myself totally not excluded. I feel like a lot more people would be inclined to learn these things if the already-informed didn't make their knowledge out to be some sort of exclusive commodity.
No one's gonna give a **** if they're called a racist for saying something not widely understood to be racist if the people calling them out are just staking out a witch hunt. It doesn't help the cause, not at all.
