It is a common technology and automotive term. "Master" and "slave" hard drives. Master and slave clutch and brake components. Master and slave in computer code parlance is very common.
All of it, on the chopping block and many MASSIVE companies are now bending over backwards to eliminate the terminology from their training, documentation, and culture. I chit you not.
I bet no one here ever, EVER thought speaking in those terms as racist or derogatory.
If the Redskins have to change their name, I'd suggest the '49ers need to as well. Westward expansion, you know. Dallas Cowboys: Cowboys and indians! Atlanta Braves, Cleveland Indians, Texas Rangers, Chicago Blackhawks, Columbus Blue Jackets.... Denver University Pioneers.... It goes on and on.
If it starts, where does it end?

I posted about the master/slave deal a couple weeks ago.

What will be done about all the stuff named CUSTER out west. Custer State Park in SD comes to mind. Several towns and counties are named Custer. Custer and Sheridan were all about pacifying Indians. The amount of renaming we're up against is daunting to say the least.

It's surprising that gender designations for various fittings aren't yet on the chopping block. It's only a matter of time.

After putting on 2 masters and one new slave i really don't care to hear about them for a long time.
That 85 Chevy S-10 was bled 3 times and still had no clutch.
Even bled from the slave with a pressured can and no joy.
Who knew that you had to take slave and collapse the cylinder and then crack the bleed screw before the last bit of air got out.

When I synchronize two switching power supplies, one is the master and one is the slave.
The bible speaks of slaying everyone in cities conquered by the Israelites. I believe exceptions were made to take a few slave girls. Slavery, the humane alternative to slaughter.

It's surprising that gender designations for various fittings aren't yet on the chopping block. It's only a matter of time. That's bound to become a problem. It's always been easy to Id a male or female fitting, but now? If you have a 6 foot husky, bearded, longhaired, lipsticked customer, wearing a dress, ask for a male fitting, what does that mean? An inny or an out? It's obvious it's confused already, and it is considered bad to ask. Shame on you if you guess wrong. Mooschell Obama said "this is the first time..." Honest to God, we are real close to this being the first time I have ever been scared to be American. 911, I was mad and upset. Through the Cold War, I was worried about the bright light. But never was scared about America. Covid made me uneasy, with the violation of constitutional rights. Now, we are under a nationwide attack. And our defenses aren't defending.
