Comment on Francis Ford Coppola: ‘Megalopolis’ cast purposefully includes ‘canceled’ actors
candybrie@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoIt’s at least the same concept. Words can hurt. Don’t use them to hurt people. Why do they seem to get that with the n-word but not other slurs or demeaning language? Do they actually understand that with the n-word, or are they just copying what everyone else does without actually thinking about why?

I think for the hateful/misinformed people, they get that you can’t help being black, but they might think it’s your fault for being LGBT. I think they also assume that if they’re not putting those people down, they’re saying that approve of that identity, lifestyle, or culture.
But I think it’s also fair to point out that most anti-woke people don’t use slurs at all.

Hmmm, do you know a lot of antiwoke people or you just don’t use slurs? That’s a weird statement.

Yikes man, when did you go antiwoke? That’s a weird space I don’t get. I’ve never met an antiwoke person that wasn’t really, really racist. I’m not around them long.
