ParticipantIt’s no different than calling blacks N-words, Jews K-words, or women S or B words. It’s not acceptable.
So madd that I can’t articulate properly and thus will allow this to speaks 4 me
‘n-word’ is! If you’re comparing the badness of two words, and you won’t even say one of them? That’s the worse word.

ParticipantWhat I said isn’t wrong, but you’re entitled to disagree. You’re effectively making a nuanced difference of distinction. I’m all for nuance and distinction, until it borders on so-called Nuance Policing. My central objection is to bigotry and your response is effectively that “it’s okay, because it’s a less offensive bigotry”. That’s a slippery slope. It’s little better to use your S-word and compare it to the N-word, than to compare the N-word to the K-word. All of them are biggoted, all are intentionally derogatory, and all originate from hatred and contempt.
It’s not comparable to saying Midget because while that can be used in a derogatory manner, it’s more often just a lack of awareness of the correct term. If a little person takes offense, that’s unfortunate, but it simply an opportunity to educate. On Star Trek Discovery, when Stamets addressed the Symbiote-bonded human Adira as female, he was asked to use “they/them” instead. A very Roddenberry’esque approach reminiscent of the original series. If Adira had taken offense (as often happens in today’s reactionary world of identity politics), Stamets wouldn’t have been in the wrong because no offense was intended.
Also, in the context of comedy, that is a medium often used to educate and expand views. George Carlin’s 7 Words inspired a Supreme Court case and broadened the use of expressive language. Sure, there’s appropriate usage and inappropriate, but well, that’s a nuanced topic for another time.

KeymasterGentlemen – all very interesting, but what does this have to do with the proposed She-Hulk series on the Disney Plus channel?
You’re going far afield with a trip into the countryside. If you’re going to post to this thread, fine – but stick to the topic.
If you two want to continue your off-topic discussion, no problem
– either start a new thread in the Free For All section or go PM mode.Thank you.

ParticipantGinger Gonzaga (“Kidding”) is set to co-star opposite Tatiana Maslany in Marvel’s “She-Hulk” legal comedy series at the Disney+ service. Kat Coiro and Anu Valia will helm the episodes.
The story centers on the eponymous heroine (Maslany), aka Jennifer Walters, an attorney who has similar powers to her cousin Bruce Banner/The Hulk. Gonzaga plays Walters’ best friend. [Source: https://deadline.com/2021/01/she-hulk-ginger-gonzaga-cast-disney-plus-marvel-series-1234676564/%5D
