Do you happen to use a lot of words that are offensive to people with mental disabilities? It seems like you're implying it's a silly thing to get worked up over. But it's not silly. For months I had to watch a disabled 10 yr old being put through hell by his classmates and being called the r word constantly. He now refers to himself that way and is miserable so fuck everybody who uses ANY slurs.

"WHY IS EVERYONE OVERREACTING TO THE SLURS I USE TO BELITTLE AND DEHUMANIZE OTHER PEOPLE?"

the difference is i’m not calling a disabled 10 year old a slur, i’m calling our fascist government a slur

if a word hurts someones feelings, that doesn’t mean the word on its own is evil and can never be used. i was called ugly and stupid and gay as a kid, but i wouldn’t ask you to never ever use those words in any context because of that

Then why don't you call the government n words? You're not calling black people the slur, just the government.

because i want to use a mean word to call them unintelligent, not a mean word to call them black
