Wendy Mesley has been shamed for having the audacity as a journalist to... say the title of a book? And now we find out she... quoted another journalist during a discussion in the very topic?
Please tell me this is a perversion of a mindset, and not the end goal of of social justice.

“The title of a book” is a fairly watered down way of avoiding what she said. We all know the word, we all know you don’t use the word. That’s not new or a sudden change or some “perversion of a mindset.” The reason she shouldn’t use the word is the same reason you didn’t, and the same reason that even if you typed it out here in an appropriate context, the censor would block it.
She said a word that people find universally offensive and apologised for it. No hate behind it, but guilty of being careless, for sure. I’m not sure what you’re getting at, you’re honestly surprised the N word upset somebody?
