I'm talking about slurs, stereotypes and the like. Can they be reclaimed, or should they be abandoned by the sidewalk. Can words that cause people pain transform into empowerment? For example, words like slut or bimbo. I see how some people are trying to reclaim it but i wonder if it works or not. and in addition to that, especially in the case of like historical ancient slurs...can they really change into positive words?
I watched this thing on Netflix about slur words and apparently saying Damn was like a really big offense now it’s like super casual. So I think reclaiming words is possible just needs time. reply
