Guys, but what about the people who post transphobic, bigoted, racist, and anti-democracy garbage here? What about their feelings?

Fuckin' lol.

I mean, duh. Your example in the post is racist.

But like, people get called racist for presuming someone speaks Spanish because they look hispanic. I guess its technically racist. But I wouldnt call that person racist in practice. Dunno why you jumped to an extreme example. But Im more inclined to agree with Ellis.

I also question if the second quoted statement is true. Ive seem racist posters here get called racist but the accuser is modded. But if you say so.
I would say that's pretty unreasonable to follow the line that because someone could fallaciously call someone a thing that it now is an insult. The ability to do so certainly turns it into one in some circumstances, but you can do that will almost anything to turn it into something else entirely. Like I could use "funny" as an insult (something like "you are being so funny") but it's beyond ridiculous to call it just an insult. In that vein you are certainly capable of using chud as an insult, but the overwhelming usage of it is just calling people out. It is just disingenuous to act like the minority ability to use it as an insult immediately means that it is now just an insult. It is no more an insult than being called a Republican is.

The left-wing equivalent (cuck) would be, so I don't see why not
That is another term for right-wingers. It's about how they always vote for people that pass laws that cuckold them. There's just a thing sort of like snowflake in which right-wingers think saying "no u" means that they win.

Of course it is. Chud = right winger, cuck = left winger. That's literally how the words are used by the respective sides.

Is "sjw" tolerated here? I haven't seen that term used in forever but it's another that's quite similar to chud in its usage, something tells me it would also be modded

SJW is always used in a bigoted way, so it gets rightfully moderated.

If I call someone a Republican with the intent of it being derogatory, it is an insult, yes.

Theres no way you are suggesting otherwise.

And to be clear. Chud, alone, is not an insult. But it can be used as one is the point.

Of course not. I'm literally stating the opposite.

No, the point is in the topic title: does calling someone a chud flaming? And for that to be true it must always be an insult and it is clearly not. Whether or not you can come up with a scenario for to be is irrelevant: the act of calling someone a chud is in and of itself not an insult. It doesn't matter whether or not you can dance around with potentials when it is no different than the ability to use any word as an insult: it is actively avoiding the answer because the answer asked by the topic is not the answer that you want to give.

Really the first response nailed it, topic should have ended there. Whether it's an acceptable insult is a matter of opinion but it objectively is never used in a nice way or even a neutral way equivalent to i.e. just calling someone a liberal

Those two descriptors typically exclude any part of a person that's done themselves at their own discretion, i.e. voting republican. You wouldn't be called a bigot for being against republicans.

Describing someone as looking like an sjw because their hair is blue is therefore neither of those things either because that's their choice to look that way. Therefore, saying someone looks like an sjw can't be bigoted or a slur. Unless of course you think calling someone a chud is bigoted or a slur.

of course the chuds throw a tantrum when you correctly point out who and what they are. it isn't flaming by gamefaqs standards so won't be modded as such. if you don't like being called out you have the choice of not posting scumbag opinions and/or leaving this site tbh

Well in the context that the Republican frontrunner continues to paraphrase Hitler, it's the intolerance paradox

It's a low brow insult used by people who are terminally online. So yea it's flaming, but it's mainly a thing on forums where literally everyone just shit posts, like CE for example. So no harm no foul.

Like for real, voting for Trump at minimum, tolerates his repeated paraphrasing of Hitler.

At this point not voting for Biden does too since you're not actively trying to stop the guy doing so. I wish this wasn't the situation but here we are.

I didn't mention Trump, you added that. But it's not bigoted being against furries either. Or the Souls fanbase. Similarly, saying someone with blue hair looks like an sjw isn't bigoted.

I get that you don't want to engage with the argument but I'll just quickly point out that it's just a fact that not all republican voters are willing to support trump, I specifically know older republicans who never will support him after jan 6.

when the logical extrapolation of what someone means by 'sjw' is 'someone who doesn't like bigotry/injustice' it starts to look p sketch.

Making fun of such people, given how ridiculous some of them are, isn't even bigotry in itself. Certainly poking fun at someone's hair color qualifies as such even less.

if you were making fun of their hair color you would mention that instead of that you think they don't like racism. when chuds use 'sjw' its obviously meant as 'someone who doesn't hate like i do'

I mean if I were American Id reluctantly vote for that white geriatric racist over the other one, but Id want more choice. Amazing they even clash so much since they barely differ. My country has over 300 parties, with 20ish actually in the government/opposition, and even they can collaborate more. The far left animal party regularly works together with the most far right nazi party, and Im not talking about the meme internet use of nazi but actual skullmeasuring, antisemite, white supremacists.

that isn't what you said and you aren't fooling anyone. the above post i just quoted is the first post you used 'sjw hair', you were just defending calling people sjws which outs you as someone that is intolerant and hates people that criticize bigotry
