    Why is this coming back? Like calling things “gay” and using the r word are super popular again, it’s like I’m in Boston

      My then high-school age niece was using gay derogatorily, in like 2020. I got “okay boomer” when I asked her not to use it in a negative way.

          Funny enough the Chinese word for “comrade” is also used by LGBT people to refer to each other

      Did it ever go away? Most people I know still say this, along with regular use of the r slur and f slur.

      It’s very annoying when my non socialist friends just randomly drop it because I thought we’ve matured past our elementary school vocabulary lol.
