English term or phrase: Guerilla Bias™:
This is a header and the following read as such:

Biases can hide behind seemingly kind thoughts and actions that, in fact, reflect a patronizing attitude toward a group.

Just wondering since there is a TM if I should leave in English or translate to Préjugés de Guérilla?

Thank you in advance for your help.

BTW this appears in a training session for the Canadian Senate.

agree  Germaine: sournois - je ne retiendrais pas "furtif" qui prête à interprétation. / Cela dit, insidieux est encore mieux. D'accord avec Didier et Maya.

Reference: guerilla bias

Reference information:
Guerilla Bias™ is dangerous for two reasons. First, like the guerilla warrior who hides behind stands of lush foliage, Guerilla Bias™ lies concealed behind good intentions, kind words, and even thoughtful acts. Second, it is dangerous because it is based on the perverse premise that all women, people with disabilities, and those who are outside the so-called “majority” population are to some degree fragile, quick to explode, or in need of special treatment.

Manifested in behaviors ranging from a reluctance to coach a female employee for fear of hurting her feelings to excessive accommodation of cultural differences, Guerilla Bias™ has done more to disadvantage populations than many more obvious and, therefore, eradicable strains of bias.

La recherche "guerilla" ne donne rien déposé par cette dame ou sa société, donc elle peut bénéficier d'une protection d'antériorité ou d'usage, mais pas se revendiquer d'un dépôt
