Is this fake? I thought the term is whitelisted not allowlisted
In recent years there's been a shift from "white/black list" to "allow/block list" in an effort to avoid the stereotypes associated with those terms. I wouldn't say it's the new norm yet, but it's slowly becoming more popular.
I hate that.
With flying they changed NOTAM from notices to airmen to notices to air missions or something.
Calm tf down. Will they change Human to hupersons next? Man-made to huperson-made? GTFO here.
If something so trivial upsets you so deeply in an attempt to make others feel more included, maybe you should look into yourself.
You should probably take your advice and calm down.
Talking with the people involved, at least in my experience, it is an unnecessary adjustment. Nobody "affected" gave a hoot.
