Well asexuals are widely recognised as queer and hardly anyone who has the faintest political literacy is against them. It’s not like Fox News is going after them like they go after gay and trans people, so when someone is aphobic they’re generally considered absolutely ridiculous by the kinds of people who use Lemmy. And calling Trump asexual would seem to imply that he’s not a rapist and serial sexual assaulter, which he absolutely is. I’m never going to stand for somebody calling Trump asexual.
Yeah, it’s based on the Greek character Narcissus, who was hated for being asexual. One of the incels he rejected prayed to Nemesis to make him fall in love with that which he cannot have, so she made him fall in love with his reflection so he’d starve to death. It’s a story about how Greek culture was aphobic. They didn’t understand asexuality and attributed not wanting to fuck anyone to hubris. So if you call someone a narcissist, you’re saying they have an asexuality motivated by pride. Which is honestly aphobic and disgusting nonsense.
No, I’m just trying to convince people that using slurs is a bad idea because if you do, you’ll be subjected to “banal whinging” about how slurs are bad. Thread top could have avoided all this by not using a slur, and nothing bad would have happened.
It’s not a slur to call Trump anything you fucking want. Stop trying to police language. Punching up is ALWAYS acceptable. YOU brought up asexuality first. You’re the one with a problem.
I couldn’t give a flying fuck if some monster wants to call a worse monster bigoted nonsense. My world is so much bigger than the grumblings of morons.
Well, as a gay and trans autistic person, I don’t think those words are appropriate to use in earnest in any context. Maybe you should try listening to minorities on the subject of slurs.

Ok, but how is calling someone a narcissist a defense?
Are you under the bizarre impression that ‘narcissist’ is a synonym for ‘asexual?’

Do you honestly think you’re changing anyone’s mind with your banal whinging?

So, if someone were to call Trump a
