    Just got banned from the USA community for, at least in part, asking this… Albeit less briefly and nowhere near as polite.

      Your modlog is public, dumbass. You got banned for being an asshole. This uwu smol bean act you types try to pull off is so pathetic, at least stand by your behavior. If you have it in you to be a dick then you have it in you to admit you were being a dick. If you’re going to be a genocide denying fascist then at least have the guts to not go crying elsewhere about how you actually just a super chill civil dude arguing for socialism.

        I’m interested that you call out the use of one slur in one thread, for stated reasons, and then use the word “dick” in this thread… what’s all that about then?

        Genuinely, am I missing something?

          Good question. Dick does not have the structural or historic connotations that the other does, it is effectively removed from the gender binarh. Just like calling someone cracker is in no way similar to using the n-word.

          edit: In the case you were just trying to point out hypocrisy: You should have pointed out my ableism in using words like “insane” as a derogatory. If you had done that then I would have responded along the lines of
          “Hey thanks for pointing that out, I appreciate the callout. It seems to me like you are attaching some sort of moral judgement to being informed about your choice of words. This strikes me as odd, nobody expects perfection, we just expect each other to strive to do better. When someone points out a fault as you did here, then that is just a helping hand for me to better myself, just as it is when I pointed out your usage of a sexist slur.”

            Yeah, I thought that might be the gist for your reasoning. Thanks for the civil reply. Hope you didn’t mind me asking…

            For the record I’m more towards the original poster’s view, the daily use of insults has transcended any deep rooted sexist connotations and we now live in a glorious linguistic free for all when it comes to insulting people.

              No worries, I understand the confusion.

              I think some words are, generally, free of previously regressive burdens, but I do not count the one you used as one of them. I struggle to think of any disparaging word about women that does not still carry an inherent core of sexism, but there is probably one out there. I do not need to find it.

      Unfortunately for you, your modlog is public and shows you were actually banned for genocide denial

        You were there, stop bullshitting. Quote where I denied the genocide, let’s see it. What I did say was to get your head out of your ass and vote. Genocide denial is what’s going on with you guys, only putting the dems on a magnifying glass while the other party plans resorts in Gaza.

          “Genocide isn’t so bad if it’s to build Israeli settlements and not American resorts!”

          Literally your only objection to the actions of the current administration is that it’s Republicans doing it

          Genocide denial is what’s going on with you guys

          "I know you are but what am I!’

          Fucking literal 12 year old

              In your last fucking post. I know you BlueMaga shitlibs can’t remember anything more than a week ago but now you can’t even remember your own previous post.

              Or do you just love how things have been going this past decade?

              Shrilly screeching at leftists that they must shut the fuck up and vote for Democrats has literally been your strategy for a decade, if you don’t like how it’s been going, stop doing it
