Do you recognize that many women would see it as unnecessarily sexist? That you could have just as easily used any similar ungendered insult and not hurt those that find it makes them uncomfortable?

I didn’t start this saying you or the comment were sexist, I started letting you know some folks might feel hurt by it. With this constant defense the question continues to be, why is it more important to you specifically that you use this specific insult even if others are bothered by it?

Like genuinely, why doesn’t it matter to you that it hurts other people’s feelings? And why is it so important that you say it on a public forum?

I guess I would have to cite Mr. Rogers et al. on the benefits of basic kindness towards your fellow humans. Would you say the same for the N word?

Regardless of my personal take on why this stood out as particularly sexist, why is this particular insult so important that it’s worth being hurtful to those it might more meaningfully impact?

I did. I am saying you feel that you using this specific insult is more important to you than the downside of making an environment that many women feel is uncomfortable and sexist. I don’t care if you personally find it sexist or not.

Why is this insult more important to you than making an environment that would make many women uncomfortable and find sexist?

Yes, because that was an incredible dumb thing to say…

She’s not here, I am not protecting her, I am saying you’re being sexist and I asked why it’s more important to you that you insult someone that will never see it in ways that can hurt those that will and you said I am protecting her.

Seems you don’t want to answer the question. Why is is it important to you to be sexist in insulting this woman?

Not the smartest one are ya?

None of which carry the same sexist history or impact. Why is invoking sexism warranted and why is it more important to you than making lemmy a less sexist space?

I am aware, and it is stupid.

You’re still being sexist. If you don’t want to be sexist, and want to reduce the sexism on lemmy, you could just describe it any other way.

She’s fucking stupid.

She’s a childish piece of shit.

This stupid fuck could have killed someone.

Like why are you so tied to this word, and why is that more important to you than the bigotry it carries?

I mean she’s clearly an idiot and in the wrong, but that’s a pretty hard b.

What does it rhyme with in your accent?

Well it’s nice of them to get weekends off at least.

It’s why I signed up ♥

It is true that people say it, but it’s far more true that they are such a trivial number of people that like North Korea that the fact that they come up so frequently in these conversations feels like such a misplace of energy.

If you want to criticized someone for being deer in the headlights of project 2025, maybe consider the democratic establishment, that watched idly by while republicans broke norms, and arguably laws, to pack the supreme court. Inventing new conventions for reasons why they can’t cede a single seat as the unelected body of supreme rule found radical new ways to insert themselves into established law.

All while keeping the facade that the courts are a neutral body that simply arbitrates, and that their decisions are in good faith.

About as effective as cops.

Recently realized when I drag to one drive, it moves the file, but when dragging out it copies. Perfect blend of data loss and anti-customer practices.

Yeah social media on a privacy list is a odd. I think the point is a lemmy instance (probably) won’t log your IP and report you to the feds for any cool flock activities you have going on (but don’t quote me on that).

I think that’s fine and normal.

Fuck you, I won’t do what you tell me
