Oh sorry you're right mods shouldn't do anything to try and make a leftist trans space more welcoming to people ๐ silly me. I'll just ban anything I don't like and abuse my power rather than wanting to have a discussion. We'll also go back to calling things "gay" to mean undesirable because it was colloquialism. Words don't matter, right? /s
I've literally been called lame for being unable to walk after I cracked my pelvis. Just because the majority of the US has a 6th grade reading level doesn't mean words don't mean what they mean. Fallacy fallacy
When you intentionally misinterpret people and childishly insult them, as you have done to others in this thread, you debase them more than if you used a word with a "problematic" etymology because you're attacking them directly. When you use histrionics, however, you debase yourself.
