      It is a slur. That is a fact, you cannot just say “nuh-uh” to facts.

          You do not get to decide to override facts. You can’t decide that a slur isn’t a slur any more than you can decide the sky is red.

              You cannot decide that up is down. You cannot decide that black is white. You cannot decide that cats are dogs.
