Elon Musk shared a screenshot in which MS Word suggested an alternative for the world "insane" due to its perceived implication of mental health bias.

Tech entrepreneur Elon Musk has claimed that Microsoft Word, one of the most used word processing software across the world, criticises users for using words that are deemed non-inclusive.  Microsoft Word now scolds you if you use words that aren't “inclusive”! pic.twitter.com/W2VqdmHVQk And this too! pic.twitter.com/03ZbwFu4NE Wokeism has literally infiltrated everything on this planet.We must stop it.

In the caption, Musk wrote, "And this too."
