Comment 32 for bug 272826

I don't think it's a good idea to dismiss any criticism as unworthy /
ridiculous / etc. If anything, you should have learned this from the
experiences of past mainstream liberation ovements (one of them being
mainstream feminism getting burnt by black and lesbian feminist
citicism that was seen as ridiculous by its participants - who turned
out to be reproducing hetero and white oppression within the
movement).

If Matthew (ie anyone at all) says there is a problem with the word,
there is, period. The task now is whether we want to deconstruct the
word itself, replace it with something else, or do both. I'd go with
both.

In the meantime, is there a better venue to discuss this? Reading
emils one by one was quite time consuming. A wiki page perhaps that
collects various arguments (except, hopefully, the ones that say 'get
over it' or the like) under various headings?
