    Ten years ago it was called “politics”.

      Ten years before that it was “political correctness” when gamers weren’t allowed to use the n-word.

        I don’t use it because it’s social suicide, but I think either everyone should be allowed to use it or no one should. But that’s like an opinion on USA tipping culture. You can have your opinions, just don’t exercise them unless you’re ready for trouble

          That’s the beauty of freedom. You are free to use it. Other people are free to shun you for being a fucking racist bigot.

          Freedom is grand.
