It's not a word that can, or should be, "reclaimed".

Dunking on chuds/libs/etc. is awesome, but it doesn't need that specific framing.

Adults are never bullied in harmful ways clueless

Yes obviously what I meant is its always ok to bully adults nothing has been clearer

i mean you literally said "it's ok to do something to an adult" where 'do something' means bullying. if you want to present a more nuanced view than that you should phrase it in accordance.

It is ok to bully an adult, that doesn't mean it's ok to bully every adult get outta here with this.

It's threads like this that make me realize "Oh there actually are people who are more concerned with getting performatively offended to virtue signal than meaningfully oppsoing fascists" and it's always such a let down.

Especially here. I have rage quit this site more than once because of endless dumbass struggle sessions

[-] Adkml@hexbear.net 3 points 6 months ago

Bespoke struggle sessions are the best and worst part of this website.

Anybody can argue about broad topics but there's only a couple places where you can have a 300 comment struggle session on one completely unique and incredibly tailored topic.
