I'm having quite an impassioned debate regarding the political and economic system and am being berated for taking umbrage with the use of is being "slaves to the system". I find the terminology ethnocentric and alienating.
When expressing this I've been called a snowflake, asked if I've been triggered, told because I'm a feminist they can't win now, mansplained to and generally hounded.
This is my first experience of attempting an online debate with predominantly men, and I've found it really shocking. I don't want to live my life in an echo chamber but also, fuck me. It's genuinely shocking.
I don't know what I want from this thread, just offloading. I suppose I'll ask of you'd find that sort of terminology offensive or inappropriate? I likened it to click bait.
