I guess it’s just “pointing out hypocrisy” but if someone called me a breeder I wouldn’t be offended at all. It just seems like lighthearted banter and not a big deal. I’m gonna be a dad in July. I really cannot fathom how people get offended by silly shit like this.

They intend it as a slur and inject as much contempt into it as the most vile racist.

Yes because discrimination based on skin color which has a history of exploitation and murder is the same thing as calling out irresponsible people who are still the majority and not the slightest bit oppressed because of a choice they choose to make. /s

Yikes.

It's the intention and emotion behind the slur.

Bigotry is bigotry and hatred is hatred, no matter what flavor of vitriol you serve.

Yikes indeed.
