[zoom on orange grinning] We can now say slurs at work without facing consequences

Absolutely guaranteed. I went to a right wing private college for undergrad (I was young and stupid, now I'm not young). They had this message board where you could ask the student paper's editors questions and blah blah. Part of the college identity was about being weird. I made a clever joke about that in a question. Because I had hinted that the student body might be weird, oh my gods not only the editors but the entire message board list its shit for like a week. Having entirely lost their sense of proportion and lived up to the pejorative.
And that was just being called weird. Someone actually throwing stones? Holy fuck that could actually get entertaining.
