Lollerscates! :)) the French used to do despicable things to the bird, and traditionally they would cover their heads with a cloth to eat it. To hide their shame.

@snosrapkungfu if you fancy old, of its time, kind of offensive nowadays, there are some Robert A Heinlein stories. Be prepared to get eye rolling cross about it though . :)) they are definitely of their time. Definitely an old straight man's work.

@MR_E @tante I suppose my point, and the reason I commented, is that with all that's happening in the world at the moment.

Calling 'sovereignty' a fascist word seems a bit.....daft. Faffing around arguing about the decorating when the roof has collapsed kind of daft.

@MR_E @tante

Yes, a straightforward, what used to be known as, a conversation, usually clears up misunderstandings about meaning and intent.

Wasn't it always that way?

@tante

I'm going to play devil's advocate for a minute.

1) words can be used by anyone, and a word such as sovereignty isn't right wing/fascist at all. It's just a word, with a meaning, used by people of all stripes.

2) Look at the Q bit of LGBTQ..... Words CAN be reclaimed, even when they are 100% pejorative. Trust me on this, I'm one of the ones who reclaimed it.

3) It's not unusual for fascists to use the word 'and' too. Should we all drop that as well?
