A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

If it is not that important to you but to someone else to feel better, it would be in the spirit of the instance to change the terminology, wouldn't it?
You're exemplifying OP's #1 and #2: a black person, who's in a position to know what people will/won't take offence with (since she's a mod), is using the terms whitelist/blacklist, and telling you "it's fine".
But you're still trying to argue it on hypothetical grounds? Shut up and listen to her dammit.
