Seems like you're trying to pull the old "I have black friends, I can't be racist when I use a slur!" to excuse using a slur. Just because you didn't direct it at anyone doesn't make it not a slur. Keep trying. It's incredibly telling you refuse to tell the inside joke. "But CONTEXT bro, PERSPECTIVE!" Okay, tell the joke then.
I literally never said "I have black friends so I can’t be racist", you LITERALLY just invented that argument because it’s miles easier to attack than what I actually said, why i actually mentioned that they’re black is obviously because it’s relevant context to an inside joke involving them and not because it gives me any kind of immunity from racism, i fully acknowledge the word itself is offensive and that people could reasonably dislike seeing it however my point has only ever been that there is still an enormous difference between an offensive word existing as a slur and somebody actually using it as a slur to insult or degrade someone(which, if you somehow still haven't gotten, I haven't done)
you keep acting like saying "it’s a slur" over and over somehow answers that distinction when it literally doesn’t, it just makes it look like you either don’t understand the argument and are mentally incapable of arguing about this or you’re deliberately avoiding it because it’s easier to argue with a version you yourself made up
also me not posting the inside joke for some rando on itch.io isn’t the genius move you think it is, I have explained enough context already for the point I was making
"it was just part of an inside joke between me and a couple of close friends(both of which are black themselves)"
That's straight up you trying to get off the hook for saying a slur because you have black friends so it's okay.
You not posting the inside joke is telling us all we need to know. Me repeatedly saying it's a slur and you continuing to dodge the truth like, "But they just didn't understand the conteeeexxttt! It's not offensive with conteeexxxttttt! I didn't actually use it on anyone so how can it be offensive!" is just another nail in the coffin.
You had an offensive slur in your bio. They had a no tolerance policy and bounced you. You're whining that because it's just a haha le funny inside joke and not aimed at anyone makes it okay.
Sybau and take the L. The fact you're putting this much effort into it without just telling us what you said means you know what you did, you just want someone (a rando on itch.io) to pat your bottom and tell you everything is all right so you can feel validated about the meany Discord mods, but that's not the genius move you think it is.
Post another wall of text trying to justify this shit. Go on.
You’re STILL arguing with shit I never said because apparently actually reading is too difficult for you, I already acknowledged the word itself is offensive, my point is about the punishment and the way it was handled, not your made up "I have black friends so slurs are okay" argument that you keep desperately dragging back out because it’s the only thing you seem capable of talking about, and since you keep begging the "zero tolerance policy" like it magically ends the discussion, NOWHERE in the actual server rules did it say that having a slur somewhere in your personal bio meant an INSTANT permanent ban with absolutely ZERO WARNING!
And before you desperately point at the rules let's check them out ourselves, shall we? Rule 3 literally says "Harassment, homophobia, racism, transphobia, ableism, or any form of hate speech will absolutely not be tolerated." I understand why they could look at the word and connect it to that rule, but my entire point is that I wasn’t using it as hate speech, I was neither attacking, degrading nor targeting anybody with it, and I never posted it in their server in the first place, Rule 9 is literally about posting shock value jokes, memes, obnoxious audio or disruptive media, I posted absolutely fucking nothing, and Rule 13 says mods can act on disruptive behavior that harms the community, which is ALSO pretty funny considering I wasn’t even actively talking in the server, bothering anybody or causing any kind of disruption, I was literally there mainly to receive updates about the game itself.
If the mod had used even just 10 picoseconds of common sense and told me "change your bio or you’re getting banned" I would’ve changed it, instead they went straight to a pban over something I never even posted there, THAT exactly is what I’m criticizing, but you seem so hardheaded and obsessed with winning an argument nobody is having that you keep pretending I’m saying the word wasn’t offensive.
You’re NOT an investigator and this ISN'T a courtroom, you’re just some guy repeatedly inventing arguments for me and then congratulating yourself for making an absolute fool of yourself, so congrats...
and yes, I’ll keep debating this and making the same walls of text for as long as you keep replying with the same braindead fucking responses, even if you’re too stupid to understand the distinction after it’s been explained to you over and over. I believe in idiots, too.
