Ever cross paths with an old friend and utter the phrase “long time, no see”? If yes, slap yourself for being an insensitive racist against Asians and Native Americans.
According to a student at Colorado State University, the school has been brainwashing incoming freshman, or “first-year” students, to avoid using “non-inclusive language,” which goes beyond just using the correct pronoun for people who identify with a different gender. In a piece for the Rocky Mountain Collegian, student Katrina Leibee writes that the school’s regulation of language has become so intoxicating that students “should carry around a dictionary of words they cannot say.” One such phrase happens to be “long time, no see.”
