to my shame i did not know how to customize the nmtui default colors (for the sake of my own health and mental stability). after reading a bit, i found out it uses the so-called newt backend with the whiptail app.
long story short... turns out it reads some of the env variables for that backend to setup the colors (if you're interested, here's where this happens in the code).
so you can simply set these env variables before calling nmtui. here's a combination i came up with:
NEWT_COLORS='root=black,black;window=black,black;border=white,black;listbox=white,black;label=blue,black;checkbox=red,black;title=green,black;button=white,red;actsellistbox=white,red;actlistbox=white,gray;compactbutton=white,gray;actcheckbox=white,blue;entry=lightgray,black;textbox=blue,black' nmtui
enjoy and keep your eyes healthy!

Because it normalizes a word and desensitizes it, making it less likely for victims to stand up. It can also bring up horrifying memories in SA survivors.
There exist negative words that do not share the same mass systemic connotations. It's generally better to use words that don't bring with them the same issues.

What do you mean "free?" I don't control him, but the fact is that using words that bring up topics of SA despite that being an extremely sensitive subject is a bad thing.
There is nothing to be gained at best, and at worst you've resurfaced horrifying memories for others.
Basic human decency, which is why OP quickly changed it and everyone is on the same page.

None of that actually addresses my points, you're just finger-wagging at me for being "woke."
If you could make a coherent point we could have a discussion.
Additionally, referencing likes/dislikes is pointless, I could just as easily point to how your comments have worse ratios than mine.

Quite a lot of "citation needed" here, along with a weird obsession with fignting for your right to be an enemy of victims of SA. Touch grass.

You clearly know, so why ask?
You didn't need to outright state that you're a bad person, that was self-evident by batting for normalization of rape.

Guys, guys... You're over-ideologizing a very simple humane request. I was asked nicely and respectfully -- I tried to respond in the same way. Simple as that. I'm usually not regulating my personal communications with others in terms of laws and amendments.

Maybe. In any case I try to never infer someone's tone from text interactions since it's always faulty and lacks human dimension. By default I just assume people actually mean what they write. I think we get (on average) more aggressive, and tend to show less empathy when not talking face to face.
Also... The term "American left-wing" is offensive for a Marxist like myself. :D
