The "status quo" is racial discrimination, which the person who said that is presumably subject to. The idea is that the word lists make people feel like they're helping, when those people aren't actually doing anything to fix actual problems and actually keep the system going.

I see lists like https://s.wsj.net/public/resources/documents/stanfordlanguag... as ridiculous.
Tarball? “abusive relationship”? “war room”?
This is way beyond the obvious racial discrimination and micro agressions.
