I'm in no way a native speaker - but even I recognize that in English 'master' has - and always had - many different meanings. One of them completely equal to the German 'Meister'.

It is all about context. Question is, why certain groups emphasize - or better: impose deceivingly by altering him - the wrong context to a crystal-clear situation.

It is the only right association because it's the same word coming from "magister" in Latin and which traveled to become maestro in Italian, meister in German, maestre and then maitre in French and finally master in English.

And then somewhere in 2019 it suddenly became a racist word against people of color in northern amerika.

Pretty sure next we are going to end up banning letters, because there's probably some letters that are intrinsically racist or something.

Same in Swedish: Mästare. Magister is also a word used in Sweden for teachers at schools.
