11. Why do you insist on using slurs

If he was black you wouldn't call him the n word would you?

So why slur against people that suffer a hell of a lot of PAIN and equate them with this reactionary asshole?

Are you aware mental illness/psych injuries actually are painful to have.So painful it can lead a person to suicide?

So why use that stigma, perpetuate it,to discribe an asshole.

Are you THAT cold twords others in pain,that you will throw around a word of oppression that has been used over and over again to dehumanize us??

If you are that cold than you are no better than the asshole that offended you.
