Erik Nygren :verified:<p>Has anyone considered the term "native" from an <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/InclusiveLanguage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>InclusiveLanguage</span></a> perspective? I haven't found references to it in searches, but it has come up for discussion in one of our employee resource groups. I haven't found it in the list of terminology where alternatives are recommended, but it also does have dictionary definitions explicitly labelled as "offensive/dated" and some of the other definitions. (As a white dude, I'll refrain from expressing personal opinions and would rather listen.)</p>
