Think of all the countless women that have been beaten, raped, or killed while being called cunt. I don't see anyone complaining when Minimalist calls people cunt in every other thread he makes. I'm sorry but I'm not giving in to the self-censorship/ anti-free speech agenda. I'm usually extremely polite and respectful with most people, partly because I don't believe in free will and therefore I don't hate anyone and understand that other people are just going to do what they do, and they couldn't change that if they wanted to.
I'll have to partially agree with this actually. I don't see why the word cunt is acceptable but faggot and nigger are not. Personally I don't think any of those 3 words are acceptable. Women have been victims of oppression throughout history, and in many places around the world still today. So I don't get why nasty names for women are still politically correct.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
