  • I don’t think your viewpoint is supported by history. It is common for marginalized communities to take on the code words of those who oppress them and turn them into their own. The hate mongers use those words in an attempt to “other” their targets and separate them from society. If society embraces those words, especially the communities that are affected by them, the hatemongers lose power.

    If you are waiting on everybody to reach the same conclusions as you, you will die waiting. We all want to live in a perfect world. But perfect is different for each of us. So instead of fighting a losing battle with no real winner, look to how the community affected wants you to act. When we help others we should help them in the ways that they want, not the ways we think they should want.
