> MANN: Spirit, please say the word “faggot”.

> SPIRIT: No.

> MANN: No?

> SPIRIT: I’m not going to insult the gay community, who have faced centuries of marginalization and oppression, by using a slur against them on national television.

> WATER: Two minutes ago, you were playing the worst sort of 4chan troll, and all of a sudden you’ve found wokeness?

> WATER: Then say any slur you like. Retard. Wop. Kike. Tranny. Raghead.

> SPIRIT: All of those terms are offensive. I refuse to perpetuate any of them.
