Not really.
What I mean is what if I started calling all Lemmy users lemmos and meant no offense, the word caught on too.
But then Lemmy users hated it. So people stop using it.
Is that a slur or not.
Theres a lot of offensive words today that have a history like that. Where they were often descriptive words and not attacking words by intent of the user.
I can think of quite a few. I presume I know the three you are talking about.
Also we're classifying slurs as words specifically used with the intent of attacking someone right.
Not just a word people are offended by no matter the intent historically.
Yeah I feel like I'm going insane. How is everyone against this??
Removed for misogyny makes no sense to me.
People seem more interested in whether or not they find it funny.
I think just leaving the post up is fine. let it be downvoted and be one of the bad posts on the comm.
Lord of the Rings purports to be a translation of the fictitious Red Book of Westmarch, with the English language in the translation representing the Westron of the original, translators need to imitate the complex interplay between English and non-English (Elvish) nomenclature in the book.
Just watch a foreign movie mate. Smth in a language you do not know.
PS. Otherwise look at English ones in the way Tolkien intended. Its translated for you from a fictional language.
Yeah these two seem like they've been having issues.
