    Control language and you control thought. That is why
    progressives have been erasing our language one word at a
    time, boxing us into an ever smaller corner of what they
    decide should be permissible. The latest word to be
    banished is "Eskimo."

    I knew why the Inuit regard it as offensive 40 years ago, and
    I've never been within 3000 miles of where they live. How
    fucking retarded can a wannabe-Indian Yank get?

    Control language and you control thought. That is why
    progressives have been erasing our language one word at a
    time, boxing us into an ever smaller corner of what they
    decide should be permissible. The latest word to be
    banished is "Eskimo." The taxpayer-funded thought police
    at NPR explain that although the word comes from the
    Ojibwe language, it has a "controversial history." That
    is, it could be tainted with Western culture:

    Trust you and your 'shadow agenda', but since there is no explanation
    for why, I'll offer my thoughts. You'll forgive me if i don't jump on
    the link to the source which you've provided. I Wouldn't want to be >categorized along with that source. {profile: clues for the few}

    The word Eskimo has always been derogatory,

    Oh yea ... it really makes you hate them ........ not.

    "Eskimos" are NOT Inuit. They are a distinct ethnic
    group. Likely migrated across the Bering strait at a
    different time, a somewhat different base group of
    people.

    You insult Eskimos by trying to turn them into Inuit.
    Ethnicide. Bigotry.
