Why would people want to live under an authoritarianās thumb?

Dude, context matters. Things can be insulting or not depending of where and when phrase was used. Every smart person understands the intent behind that sentence, and that it was a hyperbole.
Donāt assume other people canāt read context and the intent, because if you do, youāre actually insulting their intelligence
You really typed that out and didnāt see the issue?
People with intellectual disabilities can still use social media, they can still pick Lemmy, and they can still see your comment.
And itās not up to you or me if itās offensive in any context.
Do you use other slurs like this? Go to a pride parade and start dropping F bombs? BLM protests your just letting the n word fly?
Itās not up to them if itās offensive, its youāre call if the context makes it ok?
Just stop man. Youāre not helping yourself.
I donāt think you know what an f bomb is.
No one cares if you say fuck, people even have it in usernamesā¦
Weāre talking about current slursā¦
What do you think I meant?
See fuck is the f-bomb.
Maybe you should make up your own new slang
Yes they can. Do you suggest they canāt read with comprehension? Youāre actually insulting them by implying that theyāre too dumb to understand my intent.
