No no, I think the majority getting mad, or at the very least myself, see two things: (1) the vast majority of the words on this list do not have the claimed negative connotations in the slightest, and should be liberally used in Stanford materials, and (2) if the geniuses who compiled this list are allowed to make it a standard of speech for Stanford materials, it will sooner or later be adopted by many other places looking for a list of "safe words".
The whole thing has to be ridiculed from top to bottom, both for what it's direct stated goals are, but also for fear that it will make its way into more places if it's not nipped in the bud.
Note: some words on the list, such as a several obvious slurs they chose to include, of course must be avoided. Black hat (hacker) or black box or blind review or commited suicide or user (!!!!) or calling a spade a spade or man-in-the-middle or [...] are not among those.
