[edit] Weasal Words

The comparison to degrassi section has some weasal words that need to be cleaned up such as some would say and something that has been complained about time and time again. These don't cite any sources for the complaint and need to be fixed SirGrant 00:44, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

I agree. This section is vague and poorly written as well. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.211.138.223 (talk • contribs) .

[edit] section 3, character bios, Sean Miller

The term "reverse racist" in the description of Sean Miller is problematic. It suggests that it is somehow normal/ expected/ appropriate to have racist feelings against some people--typically people of color and/or recent immigrants--and that to have racist feelings against white people is somehow "reversed." It is not right for anyone to be racist against any group, is it?

If anyone judges anyone else on the basis of race or ethnicity, he or she is a racist. In other words, anyone can be racist, and the term "reverse" should not be used.

Therefore, the sentence should read, "He sometimes wonders if Sean is racist" or "He sometimes wonders if Sean is racist about white people" if more specificity is necessary. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.211.138.223 (talk • contribs) .
