I don’t know if we ever need to be lenient on slurs. I guess I was lenient in my og comment. Asking them to please not use it, but that got downvoted so I wanted to bring it to the communities attention that we shouldn’t use those slurs. I reinforced the positive frame that they can do it.
Where as if someone were to use other slurs I would probably tell them to fuck off because everyone knows not to do that. I find it uneasy that people don’t see the harm of ableist language or maybe it’s just people don’t like being told they’re hurting others and they need to change in order to stop that harm.
Oh I get what you’re saying. Yeah I would agree an instaban isn’t needed, more if a mod sees it or it gets flagged send them a warning or temp ban. Good call.
