The issue I have is the goal posts are constantly moving in an ever frustrating way.
In one setting being mindful of one aspect that may affect the group will be acceptable but may be perceived as a slight with another group of listeners.
It truly feels like a no-win situation.
Yes, I do think micro-aggression is real, but when disparate groups, even if they are morally or politically aligned, have vastly different definitions it becomes a tool to oust instead of include.
