Let's put it this way: different people care about different things, caring about certain things can put someone in "the left" category. But who cares about this whitelist/blacklist/motherboard bullshit? Maybe it's a US thing (as I don't know anyone who thinks "blacklist" is offensive), but even so some commenters here say that they don't know many in the US that care about it.
What connection is there between left/progressive thought and this particular brand of corporate speak?
