"Latinx" is the worst. I have never understood that one, which uses sounds that are not part of the Spanish language forces something on people who never asked for it. Glad it is on the blacklist.
If the objection is saying "white supremacy and racism are at the foundation of our country" then the complaint isn't jargon, it's belief. If that's the objection so be it, but it's not, as the list suggests, something to be changed by stopping Dems from using the word "stakeholder."
The list has a spread from "heteronormativity" to "privilege" that I think is unhelpful. You can tell Dems to stop talking *about* privilege, but that's not the same as telling them to not use the term, and if they are going to do the latter, they may as well use the term. Something like "heteronormativity" can be parsed down into more plain speech, but I suspect that wouldn't make the creators of the list happy, either. Because it's a complaint about topic, not term.
I'm surprised Overton window made the list. Usually that one is used by people complaining about cancel culture.
