You’re way too comfortable using the slurs you used
Don’t assume. I don’t typically use one of the words in question, except metalinguistically and when relevant to do so. I did it here because I know it makes people from a certain privileged group (Americans) uncomfortable. Note also how I am not using it to target the group it’s usually used against (Black people; they aren’t part of the problem).
And regarding “spic”, since it targets to my own group (Latin Americans), I give myself the freedom to use it.
and this whole exercise waw just unnecessary mocking of people who genuinely just want better lives
I’m not mocking anyone for wanting a better life. I’m showing what other people, who are (or were, given the current state of the things) also seeking a better life, were subjected to. “Hope you don’t need to taste your own society’s poison, and be genuinely grateful if you don’t”.
If anything I’m angry at the bloody double standard shown by the media (including this text) regarding American immigrants and immigrants in USA. And, as I said, the expectations of some Americans. “I’m American, I deserve to be treated better than those fucking spics!” (inb4 refer to what I said regarding “spic”)
You’re openly enjoying a power fantasy of denigrating people
Stop assuming. You’re making shit up about what’s inside someone else’s head, dammit. If you want to criticise what I wrote it’s fair game, but I’m not wasting my time with the next bullshit about my “comfort” or “enjoyment” or whatever.
I already stated why I did this.
trying to escape from fascism
When some people here tried to escape from fascism, guess how they were treated there?
And by “fascism” here, I don’t mean just 16 months. I mean decades, due to coups staged by USA. And people going to USA because being treated the way I represented there would be still better than “giving birth to electricity” as a political dissident.
But we don’t talk about this here, right? Noooo, only Americans (or should I say WASPs?) trying a better life.
smugly asserting yourself as superior
Okay. Third assumption = bullshit in a row. I’m not engaging further with you, go assume what the Pope is thinking.
