I thought they were pissing about something else between CRT and DEI, but I can't remember what it was. Shows you how shallow their rage machine actually is
There were a whole lot of people freaking out about being called "cis" for a minute.
That was about 50/50 innocent usage ans actively a slur though.
It's never been a slur, it's literally a scientific term. It would be like getting pissed someone called you a sapian, or a mammal. It's just snowflakes being mad they aren't considered the default, or "normal"
Just like it's not a slur to say retard, dumb, negro, mongoloid, etc.
First of all, if you think dumb is a slur than you deserve to be called dumb. You also deserve to be called dumb for comparing cis to these lol.
So I deserve to be called someone incapable of speech, got it.
My God, you are just being deliberately obtuse at this point. No one calling someone dumb is using it in that way and you know it. I'm not going to continue a discussion with someone arguing in bad faith.
That's entirely my point. The word became a slur, glad you agree with me after all.
Whatever helps you sleep at night champ.
Sure, the horrible slur of * checks notes * accurately getting described as part of the heteronormative majority
It's insane, they think if they don't like the label it automatically becomes a slur. The comment I responded to was even claiming calling someone dumb is a slur. Its mind boggling how people who have no idea what they are talking about think it's a good idea to try and correct/lecture others.
Ah yes official terms have never become derogatory.
