The word "chief" will no longer be used in reference to job titles in the San Francisco Schools

Possible replacements: tyrant, führer, darth

The word “chief” will no longer be used in reference to job titles in the San Francisco Unified School District in an effort, school officials said, to avoid the word’s connotation with Native Americans. A replacement term has not been determined.

1. This Is Flat Out Stupid, Sir

2. By referring to me as "sir," you're only reinforcing a patriarchal heteronormative hierarchy.

Or something like that. I'll have to check the Duke grad school catalog to see which courses address this.

Also, what about post-deconstructionism?

4. This sort of nonsense is why the Republicans are

winning the "culture wars". It's not like the folks in San Fran have actual problems to deal with.
