It's not a chicken burger or a veggie burger, etc. It's a chicken hamburger or a vegetable hamburger.
Show me the city Chickenburg on a map and I will call it a chicken burger.

Agile is extremely overdue for a re-term. And most teams need to reconcile that working in time boxed cycles can still meet up with timelines. What FAANG is doing does not make sense for majority of companies.
I don't think this is even an unpopular opinion anymore. Well, at least as long as you're not asking scrum masters.

Not all migrants are good for the country. Many come with views incompatble with western culture. Stuff like homophobia, transohobia, mysogyny. And they are often brought over as cheap labor, undercutting local labor.
The right to keep and bear arms is an inalienable right. We should be able to carry on all public lands, and other places open to the public.
Tattoos look bad like 90% of the time.
The government is not to be trusted.

While I get why it replaced the "colorblind" model popular in the '90s and '00s, the current mode of US racial discourse where we are asked to "see my race" is just as flawed, maybe more. While "colorblindness" asked people to act like racism isn't still a serious problem when it clearly is, "see my race" fails to equip people to think outside of the strict, socially constructed racial boxes, which fails at preparing people to understand people who fall outside them, most notably mixed race people, and encourages the notion that people of different races are inherently, insurmountably different.
It is a mistake to build more social structures around the notion of race. We should want it to go away while acknowledging the conditions aren't there yet.
