      No, I’m just trying to convince people that using slurs is a bad idea because if you do, you’ll be subjected to “banal whinging” about how slurs are bad. Thread top could have avoided all this by not using a slur, and nothing bad would have happened.

        It’s not a slur to call Trump anything you fucking want. Stop trying to police language. Punching up is ALWAYS acceptable. YOU brought up asexuality first. You’re the one with a problem.

          So, if someone were to call Trump a

          Warning: hate speech

          faggot ladyboy tranny autist r*tard orange-n****r

          , you would 100% agree with this move and applaud the person describing Trump with these words?

            I couldn’t give a flying fuck if some monster wants to call a worse monster bigoted nonsense. My world is so much bigger than the grumblings of morons.

              Well, as a gay and trans autistic person, I don’t think those words are appropriate to use in earnest in any context. Maybe you should try listening to minorities on the subject of slurs.
