Stop saying you support Tibet if you still call it the CCP name.
Words matter. So do borders. So does truth.
If you speak their language,
you’re spreading their lie.

China renamed Tibet “Xizang.”
Not to clarify, but to control.
Language is their first weapon, maps their second.
If they can rename your country,
they think they can erase it.

I managed to go through three back to back meetings without hearing the word "stakeholder"....I hope to see this derogatory term erased from our daily lexicon....#decolonizelanguage #communities of interest #tribalpolicyadvisor
Why is it okay to call the African Swine Fever such, when everyone agreed it was discriminatory to call Covid the Chinese Corona virus? Because it came from Africa? I need some answers here! #nosinglestory #decolonizelanguage
Friendly reminder that calling someone a 'pioneer' of their trade or saying someone is 'pioneering' something is colonial and outdated.

Stop calling places 'remote'.
People & animals live there. Those places aren't generally remote, they are far away from your relative position or difficult to access for you, not for those who live there.
Your point of view's relative & mustn't be generalised.

#inclusive, le #DecolonizeLanguage et plus largement le décolonialisme, la non-binarité, le #WhitePrivilege et j'en passe. Alors que la "Droite" ne voudrait surtout pas sortir des "sentiers republicains" et oser mal penser. Plutot avoir bonne conscience qu'avoir raison.

Urdu is also a foreign language just like English. English is at least an international language of communication, what is benefit of Urdu?

ایک معمولی واقعے پر احتجاجی مظاہرے اور دوسری طرف فاٹا اور بلوچستان میں مرنے والے ہزاروں پشتون بلوچستان کے قتل پر خاموش رہنے کی منافقت صرف پاکستانی cosmetic liberals ہی کرسکتے ہیں

Porque algunes estaban tratando de convencerme a mi y a @doriecp algunos Tweets atrás, de aceptar dictadura lingüística, me pareció conveniente re-visitar este post que hice meses atrás en Instagram #decolonizelanguage #egalitarianlinguistics #langchat https://t.co/69GxcHMFtk
Es hora de volver con esta serie de posts #quetancolonizadoestas #decolonizelanguage #langchat #earlylang

#decolonizelanguage: We need to stop using the word “indignant” to describe BIPOC. The Latin break down means “not worthy” and the def tells us to use it when someone displays anger or annoyance due to unfair treatment. A person can be angry and worthy of respect at the same time
