Funny how you don't say anything about what that post is actually about - it's about redditors excusing Kamala's support for Israel. They aren't kind to you if you defend the mass slaughter of civilians, no.
It seems to me that showing equal kindness to oppressor and oppressed would be supporting the oppressor.
Deragotory language, generalization & stigmatization. It is hate speech against all liberal minded people, there is nothing kind or reasonable about it.
Hate speech? Is "lib" a slur now? Are liberals a protected class? It's not "hate speech" it's just criticism of a political position.
"A pejorative word, phrase, slur, or derogatory term is a word or grammatical form expressing a negative or disrespectful connotation, a low opinion, or a lack of respect toward someone or something.[1] It is also used to express criticism, hostility, or disregard."

So yes, it's a slur.
Lmao. Guess we better update the slur filter to remove all instances of the word "lib." Sorry, am I allowed to say it in quotes like that, or is it too offensive? I wouldn't want to offend your delicate lib sensibilities.
I feel for you.
Spare me the condesencion, lib.
Claims that "lib" is not a slur.
Is shown with a textbook definition that "lib" is indeed a slur in how it was used.
Resorts to insults.
Uses "lib" as a slur.
I feel like we're making progress here.
Take this crybully shit back to Reddit, lib. It's super fucked up for you to place "lib" on the same level of actually offensive shit and try to play the victim like this.
