    it does get left up by certain mods here 😭 part of the reason for posting this

    in my individual non authoritative opinion OKBR gets grandfathered the pass but only because it’s used in a purely non offensive context nope it’s offensive, you are right. i think it gets grandfathered in because it has important memetic/cultural meaning. but it’s still obviously highly offensive and so should be treated with delicacy and respect.

    hereabouts though i’ll see like, a thread argument about cross stitching and boom, r-slur used as a derogatory. like come on kids this isn’t kindergarten lmao.

      Hard disagree here. It’s the very definition of it being used offensively.

        You have a right to that, I probably need to do some self examination there.
