      I’m so sick of everything being turned into a “slur”. Get a grip and grow a thicker skin. Stop trying to police everyone else’s vocabulary.

        I’m also getting sick of everything turned into a slur, so maybe don’t do it, then.

        What if your name/identity/love was a slur? I don’t think you’d grow a thicker skin!

        Sure but generally they’re not, it’s not BDSM and even then all BDSM is different.

        And even then, a person descriptor like that shouldn’t be an insult by default.

          I just feel like maybe Lemmy isn’t right for some of you guys. You’re just middle of the road, vanilla pudding, fence sitting boring. You guys would be better off on Reddit discussing the new Marvel property. No one needs nazi defenders nor pearl-clutchers on Lemmy, it’s already the only mentality allowed on virtually all other social media.

            I think if you want to turn people identities into slurs that Lemmy isn’t the right place for you, you might enjoy Xitter they seem to love it.

              I didn’t, but I also didn’t get my panties in a bunch over it. There is literally no shortage of padded rooms on the Internet for you, where your book club or whatever you’re into can gossip about whatever you like without the fear of hearing bad no no words.
