@timnitGebru They refuse to understand that unless and until we name the bigotry, we can't effectively critically examine its effects on and expressions in technology; and until we critically examine that, we can't deconstruct it; and until we deconstruct it, we can't replace it with something better.

This is some twisted thinking. George Will argues that same-sex couples wanting access to businesses open to the public reflects a “bullying impulse.”
“The gay rights movement’s original live-and-let-live spirit has become curdled by a bullying impulse that reflects the truculence of many moralists nowadays.”
