So why wouldn't he just use retard then?Omega_DarkPotato wrote: it's expressly not a word ban and flatulent is pretty steadfast in just using it like retard or anything else
Using a slur as an insult is an expression of bigotry. Even if you do not direct it at a specific member of the group it pertains to, you are still directing it at the general group as a whole.Cobby wrote:Rule 11 is pretty explicitly not a ban on words, if there was no reference to people of color (apart from the word itself depending how you view said word) then I don’t think it’s a problem unless there’s another piece being missed?
Why anyone would do that knowing admins look to btfo you if you say words like that in either ic or ooc is beyond me. Literally setting yourself up for failure because of your first amendment rights you probably don’t have because you’re a euro

It may surprise you that people don't like going into a community to get insulted for their ethnicity or their gender or their sexual preferences, etc etc.Kendrickorium wrote:"The part that fascinates me, Jennifer, is the part where you assume your respect is something I might be craving.

if you dont like something, ignore it. this world is full of nothing but thumb sucking babies these days, and it gets worse every single year.
humanity was not meant to have social media or be connected this closely.

Oh right because it doesn't have the same edgy weight as the n-word and no racial implication. What if he called the captain a stupid spic or a kike? It's the same thing right? Who cares haha.

This.

Who is using the word "RETARD" as a positive influence on people? Now retard gets removed. People are creative, start using words like "dinger" or "jogger", now these get removed.

Why do people who act like this deserve a place on the server?

Cobby spitting straight factsCobby wrote:The rules let you say the N word so long as it isnt directed towards a black person, in which case it becomes expressing bigotry.
The nuance here is that you cant be racist IC (you are allowed to be xenophobic) so I am willing to bet that the mental gym setup we're going to be visiting is that the n word is inherently racist and therefore shouldnt be said in any context.

bro you can't just bring up that the US government is behind multiple black leaders being assassinated and the CIA introduced hard drugs and our current president helped extend prison sentences related to said drugs to keep black communities impoverished. Next thing you'll think it's ok to bring up the US asian concentration camps.Flatulent wrote:i like how admins are so bigoted against people with mental issues that saying retard is okay for them but saying nigger is not

Which is why the trivial answer is always just don't use that specific word because ... kinda easy ... why is it so hard for people ... you basically have to choose for this to be an issue for you.

After the eugenics movement was well established in the United States, it spread to Germany. California eugenicists began producing literature promoting eugenics and sterilization and sending it overseas to German scientists and medical professionals.[13] By 1933, California had subjected more people to forceful sterilization than all other U.S. states combined. The forced sterilization program engineered by the Nazis was partly inspired by California's.[cSeal wrote:I thought that was canadaFlatulent wrote:i like how admins are so bigoted against people with mental issues that saying retard is okay for them but saying nigger is not

idk about this when I hear people say fag i dont feel like people are talking about me or even gay people in general, I just feel like its no different than any other curse word in its function in whatever dumb sentence people are trying to say. Thats quite a difference than someone using it directly to someone who is gay for the purpose of making a derogatory statement about them being gay. I assume this is similar to how black people feel when the N word is used, otherwise the mob of people would be a lot more darker.NoxVS wrote:b

I understand what they’re trying to say, but I disagree with their accessment.

You slipped the tongue and used the slur nigger with a negative connotation, against someone, when you were mad. You say you had no intention to demean anyone's ethnicity? That you did it more out of habit and culture? If that's really the case then fine, you aren't a bigot.
However, slip-up or not, cultural habit or not, common internet slang or not, you weaponized that specific slur at the time to insult someone, and that's a bigoted action.
Are you one? Admins can't read minds so they can't know. They work with what they have on the table, plus what you tell them. And the table showed bigotry, which is what rule 11 is trying to keep out from this community.
Please tell me you understand this fact. You understand that you weren't noted just for "saying a slur", right? I just used the same slur up there. That up there is "just saying a slur".
Now imagine people could get banned for using a slur as I did up there. Ridiculous right? That's why implementing a list of banned slurs is also not a good idea.
