Word usage guidance and alternative terms

Do Googlers read this nanny guide?

Do they follow it?

Does anyone complain if they don't?

There will most definitely be some useless people in there that don't have anything better to do than police this in the name of "diversity and inclusion" so yes.

Im aware of a few words but I don't read the guide.

It is (almost) literally a minefield to work with these people. I'm here just for the green card and the huge bonus I'm getting.

If you can, avoid this company.

I got linked this list from a googler who was tired of wasting brain cycles on working out how to word comments in allowed ways.
