Slurs spoke themselves unto the mouths of young GOP members again!

@mekkaokereke Someone left a box of slurs open on the table. Sloppy

... Is that some reading comprehension excercise in an English test? Intention of toning down the part Republicans played in this event aside, I really find it difficult to even understand this title.

@mekkaokereke This tells you all you need to know about the GOP.

Passive voice - the bane of accountability.

@mekkaokereke

Supernatural slurs materialized out of thin air.

[romabysen@mastodon.social]

@mekkaokereke hate it when the chat is invaded by slurs. They just show up. Very annoying.

[wronglang@bayes.club]

@mekkaokereke they must have to muzzle and drug their own headline writers to insert these. There is no way the actual headline writer isn't gagging (in a negative way) over that mealy ambiguous garbage.

[wronglang@bayes.club]

@romabysen @mekkaokereke and what can you do? They just showed up, they're not doing anything to *you*... and that's how you end up running a young republicans bar...

[lids@jorts.horse]

@juergen_hubert @mekkaokereke there’s active voice, passive voice, and NYT exonerative voice

[burnoutqueen@todon.nl]

@mekkaokereke they're fuckin Nazis that hate me and my friends

[kahomono@infosec.space]

@mekkaokereke thoughts and prayers, baby! thoughts and prayers!

[baishen@mastodon.online]

@wronglang @mekkaokereke You mean they haven't already replaced them with AI?

@wronglang There was that time during the election where the headline described Trump rambling for 20 minutes about Arnold Palmer's penis as "golf stories" and people were dragging the credited writer on social media and finally he was like "talk to my editor." @mekkaokereke

@mekkaokereke It’s Slur Bug season in Florida, when they emerge from their winter hibernation to fly around and make more slurs. They just fly into mouths in their spring frenzy. Another reason to wear N95 masks.
