confluence,

Some birb names have recently been changed, but it was more about reversing racial stereotypes. The tits and bananaquits got to stay

confluence,

From what I’ve seen, a lot of the motivation to not have peoples’ names attached to things is because people have things attached to them (such as racism). Not saying that’s every case, but I’m sure that’s a significant factor behind the general push.

confluence,

Um. The names aren’t being replaced with other personal names, and even if they were, it’s certainly not with the names of the people doing the replacement.

confluence,

Still an odd accusation to me… How does that privilege say anything about ego, given that history probably won’t remember the renamers specifically?
