(in reference to progressive language) “It’s so hard to keep up-”
I mean sometimes, genuinely, you can be the most well-meaning person in the world and still insult somebody.
In Turkey, pointing with your index finger backwards at someone is a gross insult. In some European countries, sticking your thumb between your first and second finger means “good luck” or “f**ck you” depending on where you are. In England, a cunt can be an insult or a term of endearment.
Sometimes you can blink, and the language changes around you. It can be genuinely hard to keep up, especially more so if you’re not wired into the WWW 24/7

“… and then he told me I should be a stay at home wife, and I accepted, we had 5 kids after we initially agreed to only have one but he pressured me, we moved to his hometown where I knew no one, he controlled all of my finances, after 12 years of marriage I confronted him for cheating on me but he always denied it, until I found his second family but I couldn’t leave him because I had no money of my own and lived far away from my family, then he became physically abusive and telling me that I was nothing without him, I needed help to leave him but im still fighting in court over child support and shared custody, but he is now with his third family and refuses to pay for nothing, I should have left him a long while ago but I couldn’t see the red flags and even my family thought at the time it was a bad idea to marry him but they knew I wouldn’t listen because I was 20 and naïve”
I’ve seen so many cases with different variations.
“Yes, I have! We learned about him at the Academy. It turns out it was an ironic nickname given to him by his peers after his disciple basically took him down. One of those lessons in knowledge and treachery, meant as a fable for building false trust, but some idiots are empowered it.”
