I'm going to hazard a guess that most of the people who created this list and eagerly follow all the guidelines in this list aren't going to be saying either sentence, since such sentiments would seem problematically "nationalist."

I’m going to guess most of the people complaining about this list use racial epithets on a regular basis. [/quote]
Really? You're going to guess that people who think "hip hip hooray," or "long time no see," are completely fine to use also use racial epithets on a regular basis? People who refer to their kid who will be going off to school in the fall as a "freshman" and don't see anything wrong with it use racial epithets on a regular basis? People who starts a sentence off with "as a general rule of thumb," uses racial epithets on a regular basis?

I am fascinated. Please tell me more about yourself and your life experiences. (I'm not being snarky. I am genuinely curious as to the background of someone who would think this way, and what occurred in their life and for this to be their mindset.)
