  • because the people doing the "reclaiming" aren't the targeted minority.

  • because this isn't reddit anymore and racism isn't the default position.

  • the refuge of every bigot: "the people I'm being bigoted towards want power and control over me. it's pure projection.

  • because it's racist. learn to take mild criticism and adjust behavior. it's not hard and it's a basic part of living with other people.

  • gay was reclaimed by gay people. do you see the difference?

  • please don't do this with slurs. some of us have trauma.

  • frustration, usually, hoping against hope that the answer is relevant.

  • I use stackoverflow for minutes at a time and it almost never has answers to the questions I need answers to. if it has an answer, it's usually "you can't do that". reference docs are 100% of the time more helpful. so no, I don't think so.

  • the owners of SO make far more than the benefit provided to any single dev. if that were not true, they wouldn't be in business.

  • I have no meaningful control over how my taxes are spent precisely because liberals make it impossible for genuine democratic control over the government to exist.

  • it's also non-ethnic groups. there's a genocide of my people (trans) underway across much of the US and the centrist position is that it's good because we're all pedophiles. it's even seeping into the progressive wings of the democratic party.

  • Well, um...the Bolshevik Revolution on the other hand....thats kinda....another matter

    you should read about it before you write it off. if you've never heard the story, October by China Mieville is very easy to read and will show you what people were thinking and feeling as it happens. as for what came next, I recommend Blackshirts and Reds by Parenti.

  • if you're willing to read and learn, people will make space for you here. but if you're not, this place is going to get hostile real fast. lemmygrad and hexbear are leftist instances.

  • it refers to anyone who supports capitalism. if that's not you, it's not you.

  • objecting to one line in a rather long article isn't actually the defense you think it is

  • senate has the authority to pack the courts, assuming the president cooperates. of course neither branch will consider that in the name of @Civility@hexbear.net
