    You are disparaging people with mental deficiencies by using the r word. I am defending them, not the klansmen.

    Can you read?

      Clearly you can’t because you have no concept of the meaning of words in the context they are used.

        There is never an appropriate time to use that word. Grow up.

                Why continue? You are the one that can’t figure out new words and terms. Do you have a learning disability? (For reference, this is what is most commonly accepted terminology these days. For anyone with a physical disability or from a disease process, “person with” followed by the disability or illness is what is used eg: person with Mamothmothman disease.)

                Hope this helps, but it sounds like it won’t.

                    Progressivism is about making progress. Being better/doing better when given the opportunity to do so. You seem to not understand that.

                    Just. Do. Better. That’s all anyone is asking. You are using the same illogical tactics that the right uses to defend a word that is no longer used as it has been co-opted by people that use it in a harmful way. We move on, choose more inclusive language, and that helps people. Especially when others don’t have to figure out the context of the word to decide if you are being descriptive or just an asshole. Right now, you are being an asshole…and looking at the votes it looks like others agree.
