Yeah I can kinda see that. The "so much for the tolerant left" crowd can go fuck themselves.

I don't think you're overly cynical at at all. Honestly, our everyday discourse is fucked and language is tied to oppression. We just gotta call it like we see it and if we are good comrades we gotta acknowledge we will accidentally step on people's feet we just gotta apologize when we eventually do. Some people are just myopic.
