Many people refuse to acknowledge the nuance of language development. Especially when mixed with what is socially acceptable. Because that’d mean conceding they could be hurting people.

I’ll join you in the downvotes. You may be oversimplifying a bit too, but I see where you’re coming from.

You raise valid points, and context definitely matters, but I think when it comes to language it should be decided by the consensus within the minority it was originally used to describe.

For example, most of the disabled community agrees “r-tard” is offensive these days, so it’s use has gone down. Just like “gay” before it. And white folks still argue the n-word should be fine for everyone to use if they end it with an a.

I’m not saying minorities can’t reclaim words, and language definitely changes with time. But most women I interact with get uncomfortable when men around them say “bitch” routinely.

Even calling that hallowed out shell a car is a big stretch.

The kid (man-child) stole a cookie (election). We all watched. He knew we knew. No consequences.

Of course he’s doing it again.

Most Americans recognize things are usually more complicated. It’s our “representatives” that boil away the nuance. And without nuance it’s easy to label any rebel a terrorist, regardless of their actual tactics and intent.

I’d bet money he tries to hit the big red button daily so they set up a fake one and just makeup a country so he thinks he actually won and forgets the whole thing a few hours later.

Well, I will not be blackmailed by some ineffectual, privileged, effete, soft-penis’d debutante.
