> There's no other way to use these words. They're always racist and homophobic.

The way this thread progressed was very fascinating to read.

First, an absurd baseless generalization was made. Then, when challenged, the generalization was narrowed down a bit. Then it was narrowed down again and again until we got this comment which asserts an outright lie.

These words aren't always used in a racist and homophobic way. 4chan is proof of this.

These words are always racist. It doesn’t matter what 4chan claims.
