Meta did a really interesting press play this week - they lead their policy changes with the removal of fact checking.

Do not fucking instruct a trans woman on the correct fucking use of a slur that applies to her and not to you; it is well beyond insulting and gives me a strong fucking desire to see you -flensed- like a sperm whale in the Pacific in 18 motherfucking 65.

@munin @jbaggs @GossiTheDog Sorry (If it helps I didn't mean to lecture but to learn)

@atax1a That it's bad despite context but not why the context doesn't seem to matter

@AzureArmageddon to belabor the point: not everything requires your input or opinion, sometimes the right thing to do with a thought is to keep it an inside thought.

@atax1a @AzureArmageddon it's also possible to disagree though. And the notion that you can't have an opinion on the fact that a slur is a slur when there is a semantic/intention behind, and not as a pure sequence of letters, unless that slur applies to you is imo absurd. It's an opinion, a debatable one, but still. Feeling legitimized to directly and personally insult someone else for having expressed a legitimate opinion (not even committing the "crime") is even more absurd.

@sudneo congrats on missing the point
-
@sudneo to belabor the point: your opinion on the matter is not legitimate, hth hand
-
@atax1a and that is your opinion. This is also a discussion that can easily be extended to any slur. Speaking a language (and given the fact slurs exists against multiple aspects of my identity, if that matters - it doesn't imho) my opinion is legitimate on language use. You might think it's not relevant, and that's your prerogative. But anyway, I got the point, I simply disagree with it.
To go even further, I think a whole series of insults like the one above should be subject of moderation.

@sudneo thats a lot of words that don't mean anything
