      Hey if someone calls black people in 1996 “super predators” and brags about getting rapists off on their charges by making a 12 year old rape victim seem untrustworthy just enough to break a unanimous vote, I think there may be other reasons to hate a person other than their gender.

      Not saying the OP you replied to isn’t sexist but there is plenty of reason to call Hillary Clinton an absolute cunt.

              People have no idea who you are and I see no reason you could use either of those words. You are spreading hateful rhetoric by continuing to use them.

              Any use of slurs seems to be wholly unacceptable so, your insistence that you are ok to use them is hypocritical and helps to keep as acceptable. Shame.

                There’s a super old joke based on “You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make them drink” which starts “You can lead a whore to culture but you can’t make her think…”

                http://www.quotationspage.com/quote/30884.html

                I’m assuming that’s the basis of their user name.

                Marvel even used it recently as the name for a group of geriatric plant based female super villains: “Hordeculture” which just made me giggle.

                  I love the context here but unfortunately this is not what was going through my mind! And to be honest this quote is way too disparaging of whores for my liking.

                  I just love plants and sex!

                    Well, when you’re an appropriate age, you have ready made cosplay! ;)

                    They were fun! I’d like to see more of them!

                  Oh my God that’s hilarious.

                  Thank you! This is the kind of obscure amazingness and terrible hilarious pun work that I live for.

                lmao I think it’s obvious to everyone but you that my username is not an attack on anyone in particular, and is just a reference to myself. You were using a slur to attack a specific member of a marginalized group. Even if my username was inappropriate, that wouldn’t mean that your use of a slur is therefore appropriate.

                  I was using like language to point out the hypocrisy of claiming that your actions are good and wholesome because it’s obvious to everyone that yours is in good taste but others are not. No one knows that but you. You are operating on false logic.

                  You are coming into an argument feeling superior which means none of your arguments can be taken in good faith. At all. I am simply pointing it out.

                  And I used a slur that is commonly used and is part of several countries cultural language to refer to a cunt as a cunt.

                  Your argument is poor and being language police is a pathetic attempt at pedantry to make you feel better. I don’t care and you will find others don’t either even if you build a bubble around yourself of people who do.

                  Edit: also to call trust fund baby, former first lady Hillary Clinton a member of a marginalized group is hilarious and only true because of how few first ladies of the US are left.

                    I obviously know you don’t care, or else you wouldn’t have used a gendered slur to discredit someone.

                    You can call me a hypocrite when I do that.

          Stop looking for your dopamine in fighting people over self perceived sexism you want to exist.

          You are even adding additional language to others to feel more enraged. It’s a negative spiral and completely self imposed.

            They’re the one who used the word bitch :D I’m going to name bigotry where I see it, no matter how unpopular it is for me to do so. Hope that helps!

              Reread your comment and think about how excited you are to point out that they said a word you don’t like. It’s one thing to actually fight against bigotry it’s another to try and police language others use as a way to feel a sense of control and superiority.

              The feeling that you are fighting against a just fight is giving you a dopamine hit the same way the Facebook algorithm is designed to get you to fight in the comments. It’s pointless and hurtful to your own sociability. You are just picking fights that make it less easy to have an actual conversation.

              I get it. But this ain’t it Whoreticulture.
