    Jesus fuck, people need to grow a spine. There are much more pressing matters to cry about. Half the fucking planet is on fire but no, let's cry about a word.

    I grew up on the obese side, was made fun of for it my entire childhood. Do I get offended when I am called fat? No I laugh it off, because it's true. At some point it's better to not be offended all day

      We can can care about more than one thing at a time lol. Do you also think black people should just "get over" the n word because global warming exists? Or gay people with the f slur? Do you think that women should stop complaining about sexual harassment in the workplace because global warming exists? Those are often "just words" after all. I care deeply about global warming and want to do things about it, probably more than you do, but that doesn't mean I have to be ok with words meant to insult and attack me and people like me.

      Idk if this rhetoric will work with you because you probably do think those things, at least about the slurs.

        You're arguing with a militant apathy enthusiast that wants to say edgy South Park tier shit and get no pushback from it, because they're allowed to be offended at others getting offended and that's the only offense allowed according to "nothing offends me" reddit-logo types.

        Caring a whole lot about not caring and making sure no one cares too much is the definition of maturity for "nothing offends me" reddit-logo types.

      You first.

      Stop being a crybully because your edgy slurs aren't welcome here.

      At some point it's better to not be offended all day

      Except you are right in that post because you're not getting praised for your stale edgy slurs. Do you have any fucking self awareness at all, you reddit-logo brained crybully?

      It's pretty clear the user autism dragon has a spine, that's why they're telling you to back off instead of accepting you using a term they find hurtful
