I really should have seen this coming.

So as a member of south park groups on multiple platforms over the years, I’ve always agreed that South Park spaces are not for people who can’t take a joke. Any joke made in south park is basically fair game, within reason. Obviously South Park is not a valid justification for targeted harassment etc.

So… onto the topic of removed faggots and when it’s funny vs assholery:

Funny: When you call a lying, cheating, megalomaniac, pedophile, who’s responsible for the death and suffering of millions, a removed faggot.

NOT FUNNY: When you use it to disparage pretty much anyone else other than Garrison and maybe Ted Cruz. But you’re kind of being disrespectful to muskrats at that point.

I hope that clears things up!

edit: Interesting that it auto filters removed but not faggot. Whatever.

      Or bundle of sticks. Faggot has had many uses besides denoting people. But I do agree it’s not nice to use against lgbqt folks.

      I have family with a genetic disorder so I’m sympathetic to people offended by the word retard(wtf so retard is okay but not removed?). But I do think this is the kind of language necessary to break Trumps spell on his base.

      When the libtards (hey why is that one okay??) are saying trumps a removed faggot, maybe the culture shock will make them realize.
