So words evolve unless they become slurs.

Edit: Yea just terminate thought and downvote, very productive discussion. "Words change meaning unless we decide to ignore the new meaning of the word."

Im honestly just trying to have a conversation about this, because me and all my friends are progressive people, and none of us see the 'r' word as badly as it is perceived online. But whatever its cool, the slur treadmill continues, see you in 50 years when idiot becomes the "i" slur.
