Apparently it’s “virtue signaling” and “language policing” to not want to use language that actively oppresses people. Very cool.

We are so far away from any meaningful change it hurts.

My favorite:

Oh, I mistook people being anti-ICE for being anti-fascist… turns out they’re only anti-ICE

I guess being anti-ICE and being a Good Person are mutually exclusive of one another. My bad, y’all.

    It’s worse when you can tell they’re using it as an actual slur

    TBH they give the whole game away when they say “Wireback”. “Clanker” had the excuse of being from Star Wars, there’s no way to get to “Wireback” without deriving directly from an actual racial slur and no reason to do so other than to tear the mask off for all your fellow chuds while keeping only barely a small layer of “plausible” deniability for the civility lib audience.
