  You look like them when you drop the r-slur. Don’t let their shit behavior and punching down make you worse.

        Just because someone has a mental disability doesn’t mean they are Republican. That seems way more offensive.

    Nah. I’m good. I never was going to pass the “wholesome” purity tests.

      The test was ‘don’t use slurs’. I suspect you have larger issues if that is the hill you want to die on.

      I’m autistic. I don’t like seeing that word come back. So I called out shit behavior. Have some godsdamned creativity if you’re going to insult people. Don’t emulate the people you’re insulting.

        As usual with all things, it’s a spectrum when, where, and what I’ll use. And I think it’s plenty appropriate to direct it to hurt these fascist nazis.

        But to be clear, no I will not pass your test to never use any slur in any context. I don’t think most people would, even on the progressive side of the spectrum. Nor do I think the bar will remain the same for certain people and they are just annoying people into fascism over every single fucking micro aggression.

      Oof. Way to embody your slur of choice.

    Agreed.

    Window licking mouth-breather is so much more poetic.

      If you’re gonna jump in so late with so little to add, at least have the courage to drop the slur. It was right there.

  I heard about this book when I was young, and the older I get the realer it becomes.

  “Future Shock” by Alvin Toffler, written circa 1970. The author, a sociologist, predicted that as the world moved from the Industrial Age to the Digital Era many people would be unwilling/unable to deal with the new realities.

  “Conservatives” all over the world are working harder and harder to hold onto the past.
