> However you don't win arguments by arbitrarily definition words or phrases to be what you would like them to be

> the avoidance, often considered as taken to extremes, of forms of expression or action that are perceived to exclude, marginalize, or insult groups of people who are socially disadvantaged or discriminated against.

Aren't you taking an arbitrary definition (un-sourced from google/Oxford Language) to win your argument?

Here is Merriam-Webster's

> conforming to a belief that language and practices which could offend political sensibilities (as in matters of sex or race) should be eliminated

Seems like both are acceptable modern-day usages... like other terms a difference between capital vs lowercase might help here like... "republican" vs "Republican", "democrat" vs "Democrat"
