No one uses cis as a slur you utter snowflake.

[–] Nuke_the_whales@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

Are you cis? Cause if not how would you know?

I had to have a serious talk as a person of color with my gay sister in law and her wife, after she would casually refer to straight people as "breeders". They couldn't understand why I was connecting that word with racism, even after I explained what it meant in the slave South.

I've rarely seen a tweet or post that begins with "cis men..." That ends in anything but negativity

I'm Canadian and the American left is wild this cycle. Hate. Name calling. Even racism. We're all very disappointed around the world.

Who is this, "we're all", that you've appointed yourself spokesperson for? Given the poll numbers you're speaking out your ass.

Oh I was backing you up cause someone name called you, and got immediately turned around to be a name calling jerk lol. The toxicity spreads. Why are people so offensive to strangers online? Cause we're faceless I guess? Easier to be inhumane and offensive when you can't see the person huh? Real mature

Calling a fascist a fascist is no more name calling than calling a Canadian a Canadian. Calling someone you don't agree with or whose opinion you are trying to devalue a snowflake is childish name calling.

I'm fact, Mike Godwin himself said, "By all means, compare these shitheads to the Nazis, again and again. I'm with you."
