\nHi Blog. \u00a0I have a query for you. \u00a0<\/p>\n

I’m designing our next Debito.org poll (due out Oct 1), thanks to a suggestion this afternoon from a commenter. \u00a0Regarding problematic words…<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s how I\u2019ve phrased the question so far:<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cTerms describing people in any language can be controversial. In your opinion, which one, if any, of these words still in common use do you think are offensive and should be obsolesced out over time?\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It\u2019ll be a poll where people can choose multiple answers, and the answers so far I\u2019ve come up with are:<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

    Any other options people feel I should include? Please leave a suggestion in the comments section below. \u00a0We have six days. Thanks very much for your assistance! \u00a0Debito<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
