Right, because hexbear coming in shitting on everyone and calling an entire community racist for unwittingly using a racist term in a context fairly removed from the original meaning is so helpful to discourse. Im only returning blows in kind. And I am so terribly sorry ye ole lemmy wizard, for speaking out of turn. Ill wait so I can speak with the rest of us, younglings.
"It's not common knowledge that this term has racist origins, but it does and we should stop using it" == "Y'all racist"
yes thanks
Yes, clearly, that is the cool an levelheaded contributions hexbear brought to this thread. Absolutely no gaslighting here.
idk man I'm just reading OP and the only thing called "racist" is the word itself
I never had a single problem with OP itself, the sauce is in the comments.
Nobody has called the entire community racist, the callouts have been exclusively to people like you defending a term that obviously plays with one of the most common racial stereotypes about East Asians. Taking a racist term out of context doesn't make the term not racist, it only means that a still racist term has gained even wider use.
Again I have personally not once defended the use of the term, I have only ever attacked hexbear code of conduct. I even stated that I am for not using it in a since (mod) removed comment. I thought the term was dumb even before I (like most of this comm) found out about the origins through this thread. The only context in which I have defended it is in this convo and only in the aspect of the response it has gotten from hexbear, which if you don't feel is entirely disproportionate, we have nothing more to talk about.
You're straight-up lying, kiddo.
It's mommy, please edit your post while i look up your defense of racism in the modlogs. I'd have to report you for purposefully leaving up a misgendering otherwise and i don't think your account will survive that after all these comments have already been removed.
Lmao, I won't idulge your powertrip, which at this point is blatant. I might have if you had actually asked nicely not through a thinly veiled threat. If it doesn't survive your report, so be it. Let the record show I included both versions because I had no clue what your pronouns are and I don't think your infantilizing response warrants any more respect from me than that.
I retract my statement, of course you're also a transphobe besiodes being a racist, a diaper fetishist and the most pathetic pencil-headed dweeb i've seen since federation began.
Oh, and those transphobe claims too.
Quote up on those racist claims there buddy (that one is gender neutral, afaik).
BTW this really isn't a good look for somebody who's already revealed their breastfeeding fetish, maybe you want to cut that part out entirely.
Your fantasies of my breastfeeding fetish really dont phase me.
lol stfu diaper boy
Wow, way to show your true colors :D Its pretty funny I have seen attempts at me to kinkshame and fatshame from the civil inclusivity instance.
