Yep... unfortunately went for the weaker adjective there. Wanted to say "infuriating" but didn't want to seem too dramatic!

So much appreciation for the woman who tells them to "Back Off." She's more fearless than someone who uses intimidation to taunt and stalk victims.

Surely, there must be a more "efficient" way to collect millions of responses. Perhaps a *2nd* email address.

We have to start labeling some things as parody because... seriously, we can't tell anymore.

Please ask every spokesperson, politician and media personality prominently wearing a shiny cross if they are OK with the consequences of this, and how it somehow reflects their twisted sense of "traditional family values."

Musk is citing Wikipedia as his source. 🤦♀️

Did not know about its earlier origins! Whether its music or language, the term "stolen" really seems accurate when one group can co-opt the meaning of something and maliciously twist it into something "bad." To see it used so generally now (conveniently without clarifying what they mean) is wrong.

Floridians really should ask him if he could be more specific -- or clarify what he means. It's basically "Explain it to me like I'm a 5-year-old." 🤔

People like Atwater know exactly what they're doing. It's ok to rip society and people to shreds, as long as you're "winning."

The term was stolen from African-American vernacular, but people who seem to use it most now are clearly mocking it. A positive concept (being aware of social issues) is now used so condescendingly it's a generic replacement for "something liberal I don't like."

Yes, unfortunately, this happens in all communities who appear to be "other."
