“Homo” and “removed” are both slurs when used in a derogative way. As an autistic person who also happens to be gay, both words are hurtful when used in the way you use them. Please do better, especially if you’re not part of either minority group. Then it’s just embarassing for you to use words that you really shouldn’t be using.
So we are going to erase every word that can be used as slur as well? I guess we will stop talking about animals like “ape”, “pig”, “monkey” and there should be a law that prohibits grouping of any round object that can be described as “ball” so people don’t think it can be used as a slur.
Yeah from now don’t use those words in public because I will get offended personally …
Btw dude… homo means human. Pull your head out of your self centered behind. There is a person in the same thread calling people ‘douche’ yet you are offended by completely normal words like ‘homo’ or ‘removed’. ;)
You can’t make any word a slur. Slurs are specifically words used to show prejudice or to oppress a group of marginalized people. You’re not going to use the n-word, are you? So don’t use words that historically and still is used against intellectually disabled and developmentally disabled people.
Your “deal with it” rhetoric also doesn’t come across as anything else but a lack of good argument. You know you could just be a nice human and have empathy for people who are hurt by the words you’re using instead of being a stubborn asshole.
In my country the phrase “jævla homo” is a slur against gay people. So just because a word has multiple meanings doesn’t mean it isn’t a slur when used in the right context.
And please spare me from your passive-aggressive winking faces. It doesn’t come across as anything else but childish.
