I look forward to people with your mindset being left in the dust. This is just another instance of the right to free speech being different from the freedom from consequences. But sure, go ahead, keep defending using slurs (despite the fact that every campaign that ran on slurs and attacks lost). We can work on actual policy that Americans want and also say "yeah, language like that is wrong and we're gonna move past it." Why are you going to bat for bullies?

I literally pointed out that it's possible to condemn using slurs while focusing on other issues. When fighting for trans health rights, a person can also call out someone for throwing out slurs as part of their fight. Nobody here is saying that the rhetoric has to be battled specifically and separately. It absolutely should be a part of the overall fight.

People that hate being told that they can't use slurs can fuck right off. Eventually, those people will be ostracized for being the shit they are. How often do you see politicians dropping n-bombs and of those times, how many of them were just accepted as using acceptable language? That language once upon a time was socially acceptable, but because there was a concerted effort to change that, it's no longer something people get away with without social consequences. Slurs against trans is the next iteration of that.

It's just wild to me how gung-ho you are about defending the use of slurs and not condemning it.
