My literal job is organizing young progressives. I’ve never been in any group chat where anyone uses that word.
Is this a situation that comes up often on the right? Using the N word?
@briannawu Can't say I'm surprised. Whenever I hobnob with a conservative crowd (rarely, usually for work), there's almost inevitably a comment made at some point with veiled racism or transphobia. These folks assume that anyone in their orbit agrees with them (and even agrees with them that it's a shame they can't speak about it openly), and I bet that effect is far more pronounced in an ideological chat room.
