Well, "The Band" is taken. Maybe they can go with "Dirt Band" to avoid cancellation.

The book 1984 speaks of how certain words disappear . The book also talks about how everyone has to hate the opposing party daily with rants to brainwash the masses, just like Hate Trump TV does on multiple channels today . Brainwashing is going on daily before our eyes with hate tv. When I read the book 1984, I could easily pick out all that the left was doing to achieve power .



Then the George Orwell book 1984 talks about the thought police . One cannot make a negative face toward the ruling party. One has to give complete allegiance including no free thought, no freedom of speech, no bad talk about the ruling party.


One has to think a certain way and if they don't they are turned in by a neighbor , or co worker, or anyone who sees or hears anything negative toward the ruling party. That party moving toward this is the democrat party. I see it daily.

No problem.
As soon as they add cracker, white bread, ******, redneck, white trash, trailer park trash, and whatever else to the list.
Equality and fairness right?

I use cakewalk. I was unaware of the origin of the word and will drop it from my vocabulary.

I don’t seek to offend nor take offense.

I guess we can still said "blueneck"?

Btw, will they add "frog" and "french pea soup", terms used to French-Canadians?

Good luck with that one given how words morph and phrases come and go from society.

Because these are people that will find offense in something....always.

You'll also need to drop "takes the cake" fyi which refers to cake walks as well.

Also, there are lots of phrases that refer to gun violence, war etc. like the whole nine yards, balls to the wall and many many many more.

The constantly offended are always on the lookout for new ways to be offended and also will apply race, gender and class filters to anything you say.

So, um....fat chance....ooh that one is offensive to people with body image issues....

I will not drop a single word from my vocabulary. SJW's can kiss it.
