fucking THANK YOU. where the fuck did this "q-slur" bullshit even come from? like three years ago, i had never seen anyone object to the term as a blanket for the community, and then all of a sudden it's like 'don't use this term that has been 100% reclaimed, because it used to be a slur!'

emphasis on 'used to be'. straight people, if they wanna insult the community, call us 'gays' or 'trannies', queer used to be a word they tried to hurt us with, but how much does that happen anymore? queer, these days, is almost exclusively used as a self-description by queer people.

and you're right, it DOES feel like gaslighting when people are like 'THAT WORD IS BAD, NEVER EVER USE IT'.
