Neat history, I guess? Still seems to be an abhorrent label to self identity with.
The justification behind it is deeply unserious
Does that make it better or worse to keep using it?
Worse, I should've been more clear.
They're using a reddit piss match from a nearly a decade ago to justify the use of a disgusting piece of language.
Your meaning would've been clear in almost any other context, but in this case I could just imagine someone saying "it's not a serious justification, just chillax bro, we just like it". Or something equally asinine.
