If the phrase itself is what lends to the ostracization of the movement and that becomes the singular focus then we've got larger issues. It feels at though focusing primarily on how they label themselves is narrowly tailored thinking and ignoring the larger problems perhaps intentionally by some.
If, as many have stated in thread, that there is a real recognition that this problem requires remedies why should we all get hung up on how it's being framed? Do we not have ownership over our own ideas and means to address the real issues?
It's just really sad if this catchphrase is the end of anything meaningful coming from this. Obama is already pivoting towards criminal justice reform.
