they just got super pissed at me acting like i freaked out for no reason. the word was said THREE times after i clearly expressed that it made me uncomfortable to hear my parents saying it. three times is crazy. once? fine. maybe they didn’t know. twice? i’m very clearly mad. and they say it a third time?? they say that i have no ability to grasp context and that it doesn’t matter because they weren’t calling anybody that. i’m just trying to explain to them that generally the context does not—
matter in today’s world. today it is very bizarre are shocking for younger people to hear slurs said by anyone other than the affected group. i guess they just didn’t know that but to me it felt like common knowledge and i guess i got a little more mad than i should’ve because to them that was not always the rule i guess. but i was just very flabbergasted like the context doesn’t really matter anymore
