It's usually done as a strategy to try to fit in, to be "one of the good ones," or sometimes just self loathing given a signal boost by chuds in the same community.
It's saddening how many people, especially trans people, call themselves d-word-popularized-by-nazis, for example. Or marginalized ethnic group members that use the very slurs that are used to justify putting people like them into camps.
It's fucked up, but I am often at a loss for how to reach those people, or if such a thing is even possible. :doomer:
EDIT: It seems this is important enough to :freeze-gamer: that alt accounts must be mustered to rage at me about it. :jokah-messy:
Looks like autofilter gotcha, but I believe your guess is correct.
When it's used it often has the hatred and wish for mass murder built right in, especially when :freeze-gamer: uses it to quote Caesar's Legion from Fallout New Vegas. Which was the context of me making this thread, when someone then added "d-slur here. But I don't do (scary too trans things)" :doomer:
:yea:
Sorry about the wrecker tho. Did some reporting to mods, but looks like you're taking it in stride. Carry on, comradee!
It helps that I've interacted with this particular wrecker before. The style is unmistakable. It's nothing new and it even gives me a little nostalgia.
I will :sicko-wholesome:
