I dunno man I just thought the cartoon was making a statement. Im not saying its a clever or original statement, but I liked the cartoon and I upvoted it.

🤷

I don’t think it’s that clever, I just think it is making a good point.

If this guy could read he would be very upset with you

I’ve been calling myself an independent since the election.

Ah there’s the catch, ill take a used one once it drops below 15.

You want me to do TWO things?!

Nice try Cyril

I have enjoyed this exchange and mostly agree with you👍

That’s fair, I guess its just changed in my social circle, but I disagree with your second point.

Society is made up of people and the way we use words changes their meaning over time. There isn’t a dictionary committee that decides what words mean, words change based on how individuals use them on a daily basis.

Ok cool, I get your points.

Do you think its alright to use dumb and stupid? Because those words pretty much have the same root as the r slur.

I imagine Idiot is ok because it comes from the greek for common man.

I kind of think you’re overthinking the whole “root of the reason” for using words like “dumbass”, its just a mental stress reliever.

Somebody cuts you off in traffic you say motherfucker and you feel kinda better for just instantly getting it out of your system instead of keeping it bottled up, you don’t sit there and go through a Buddhist podcast about forgiveness and suffering and think about how difficult life must be for that motherfucker that cut you off, and how she probably was distracted by her kids or stressed about something.

Also I don’t think its necessarily ableist, people can do a dumb thing and be called a dumbass for it, doesn’t make them irredeemably dumb. A thought can be dumb, you can say it and sound dumb, doesn’t make you dumb forever.

So words evolve unless they become slurs.

Edit: Yea just terminate thought and downvote, very productive discussion. “Words change meaning unless we decide to ignore the new meaning of the word.”

Im honestly just trying to have a conversation about this, because me and all my friends are progressive people, and none of us see the ‘r’ word as badly as it is perceived online. But whatever its cool, the slur treadmill continues, see you in 50 years when idiot becomes the “i” slur.

Yea but when I say ’ nobody uses the “r” word to talk about people with actual intellectual disabilities and the word has changed to just mean very dumb’, nobody can grasp the concept.

Oh man maybe he should do another podcast with charlie cuck, surely if he reaches around the aisle he can get through to people.

Facts? Oh whatever, were speculating about new Nintendo game prices.

Only time will tell what variable pricing actually looks like.

Bro what misinformation lmao, what rage?

I did try to correct myself but i don’t think im far off. We can come back to this in a year, I think all the new super smash, mario odyssey 2, legend of zelda are 90 for disk which after tax is 100.

This is a pretty pointless argument ✌️
