I'll start: "Shoving x down our throats"
the amount of people who have told me i'm one of the good ones because "at least you don't shove gayness down our throats," or "i'm fine with it if they dont shove it down our throats" has made me cringe whenever i hear that phrase used in any context, even harmlessly. how about you guys?
I was raised by two white supremacists and was surrounded by racism as a kid. Certain common names like Jesus or Latisha have been used in so many horrible racist ‘jokes’ around me growing up that I wince when I hear them.
They are fine names btw :)
