    I reported a bunch of Republican saying the F and T slurs on Facebook yesterday, and every single report said it didn’t go against community standards. Facebook is shite.

      I’ve straight up reported bot scammers in groups, and had my comments removed from their posts because I was supposedly spamming. With a single comment. All the while those accounts continue to operate, posting the same shit everywhere. Fuckin clown world in there.

            Sticks and stones may break my bones, and single words here and there won’t hurt me, but en masse they normalize an attitude of supremacy and derision toward folks that super don’t need any more. No snowflake thinks they caused the avalanche, but lots of us have to live with the consequences of this in daily life regardless. Shock value slurs are also just… tired and played out at this point. Whatever humor they had at one point doesn’t really land in the same way anymore.

                I was reading through that for something to refute but it’s all just flowery words to the point of pretentiousness for the most part imo.

                If everyone is telling you that you’re wrong, did you ever stop to think that you might actually be wrong?
