Okay, lets look at this as a network detective.
You start only know that there are two network connections.
One to the to Internet, which I will call the *Black* connection.
The other one to the internal network, which I will call the
*Red* connection. You need to know which is which.
Batten the hatches -- you may be attracting attention you don't
want. More descriptive names will avoid the "names can hurt
me" problem, maybe "int*er*net" or "public" versus "int*ra*net" or
"private".

It is disturbing that it has come to this. I hope
the Religion of the Perpetually Offended goes
away soon.
If you are interested the Red and Black comes from:
Red/black concept
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red/black_concept
The red/black concept, sometimes called the
red–black architecture[1] or red/black engineering,
[2][3] refers to the careful segregation in
cryptographic systems of signals that contain
sensitive or classified plaintext information
(red signals) from those that carry encrypted
information, or ciphertext (black signals).
Therefore the red side is usually considered
the internal side, and the black side the more
public side, with often some sort of guard,
firewall or data-diode between the two.
