This reminds me of the same issue with the term “discriminate”. Discrimination is an important, good thing to be able to do. You look at a traffic light and you should hopefully discriminate between the red and green colors.

People have started using is generally to mean racial discrimination in a bad context. So now, a lot of people understand “discrimination” to mean “racism” or “sexism”.
