Bah, lemmy, please just let me devolve into a reactionary right winger! Stop making me learn things and have empathy and compassion for people!

You're right. Fuck. It's just tiring being wrong. I grew up in a way that getting mad about something like this would just be replied with "tough shit". I guess old habits die hard. If changing it really makes that much of a difference for people, then yeah, great job gnu people.

I grew up calling racoons "coons" in the region of the US I live in and it's still common to call them that nowadays. Words can have contextual meanings. If I hear the word "removed" and it turns out some guy is working on his car, I'm not going to be offended, and I shouldn't be, because it's not being used as a slur.

All said and done, I don't particularly think it's a big deal to change it, but I do believe it's a highly performative gesture.

That's a massive reach.

Yeah after a good bit of my own investigation, they just seem on par with any other poor country. Not something I'm going to worship, but not something I'm going to spend time complaining about either.

There are good movies, and then there is Popeye The Slayer Man. Nothing in between for me.
