Just saw a clip of Benjamin Shapiro saying the R slur.

This is their new thing. Under trump you don't get house or money or food but your neighbor gets deported and you can say the r word again.

Like this is 100% gonna backfire, nobody was asking for this. It makes them look like 14 year old boys.

Espically Ben Shapiro saying it 3 times all smug, he looks like a 14 year old boy whose mom isn't around and he's saying naughty words!

They're losers people hate them and this is loser behavior.

I think with normal people who weren't in "leftist spaces" I noticed they started using it again IRL after COVID

My normie liberal friends don't care

I think the difference is that it's really weird and immature for a politician to run on it

I noticed this especially myself, its a reflection of covid with normies, I even heard a few f slurs and got it directed twice at myself (once hatefully, another playfully), and the r word was never polite but now I hear young people using it. Gay as a pejorative also made a comeback simultaneously
