The best thing about lemmy is that it brings back things like this that I often thought about and really wanted to find again to be able to fill the gaps in my memory, but couldn’t remember enough about it to be able to find on Google.
Its not the first time it happens to me. Anyway, thanks op. I had given up hope on finding this one again.
While I always advocate for starving trolls, sometimes feeding them yields hilarious results.
Blood of a thousand innocent ani
Isn’t “of a thousand anus” a dative construct, so the plural should be “anis”?
Afaik you don’t declinate loanwords beyond the plural, but you’d have to ask Merriam Webster for that.
Fun little tidbit: the word “loanword” itself is a sub-type of a loanword, a calque, which is a word-by-word translation from a word in a different language. It was brought to English from the German “Lehnwort”.
Loans generally follow the grammar of the host language. English has a plural, it doesn’t have a dative.
Well, a dative marked by morphology, that is, outside of “him/her/whom”, instead it’s done by word order. Take “The smith gave the miller the hammer”, “the miller” is dative, “the hammer” is accusative, you can’t say “The smith gave the hammer the miller”.
Also “of a thousand ani” is genitive, marking of that is done with “of” or “'s”.
As to plural form: English has a gazillion of those: Caboose, cabeese (yay Ablaut!), box, boxen, etc. Some Latin doesn’t hurt.
I put on my wizard hat n robe…
I’m gandalf, the anus destroyer, and you’re my simple hobbit.
Why is faggot censored?
Because it breaks Rule 1
Refrain from using harmful language pertaining to a protected characteristic: e.g. race, gender, sexuality, disability or religion.
What about all the other bad words…
A little bit of cultural linguistics going on really. Even though the texts are also calling OOP gay and queer, and doing so with the same amount of vitriol as with the f-slur, they aren’t recognized as emotionally charged in the same way. All the other cursing is not hate speech per se as it’s not directly targeting any immutable characteristics.
This is a civilized society. We have rules you know
I’m not happy with any of the depicted harassment in the image (fake or not), it just not that funny. If you want to see what happens if you have a descenting opinion though, you can see my massively downvoted post below.
OP isn’t using it. He’s quoting someone else using it.
Then it breaks Rule 5:
No content that harasses members within or outside of the community.
That’s ridiculous, quoting harassment is in no way itself harassment. That would undo just about every awareness campaign ever.
Depends on the reason for the quote. Awareness campaigns quote them as examples of what not to do. There is a clear intention to tell the audience “Watch out for this, avoid it, this is wrong.”
The punchline in this example is an encouragement to harass people because it’s funny.
I don’t buy into the concept of hate speech.

the most interesting thing about this is the fact that “removed” is blurred out, but not “gay ass queer”. times have changed and i feel so fucking old.
e: til you can’t say it on lemmy.
This is straight up verbal sexual harassment. Why is this being upvoted?
It breaks Rule 5:
No content that harasses members within or outside of the community.
…screamed the stable boy.
Now we have actual written sexual harassment documented in this thread. 🤡
Rules 1 and 5 are being openly broken. Thanks for showing me the dregs of this community.
Lighten up Francis.
Mate, I’m lighter than a kite. Any apparent anger in my posts is due to your projection.
You need to chill, man.
Bro he called him “faggot”. This was not a one way street
Well that’s not very civil
So your agreeing with me that there was sexual harassment, and then there was more sexual harassment?
Thank you for proving my point even further.
Edit: It’s even worse!
That means this content breaks Rule 1 as well
Refrain from using harmful language pertaining to a protected characteristic: e.g. race, gender, sexuality, disability or religion.
So your agreeing with me that there was sexual harassment, and then there was [homophobia]?

Lmao, shit-tier trolling

I think i recognize some context you’re missing.
I feel like this is in response to an unsolicited ERP request from the left chatter, making it essentially proportionate.
Now I can’t be certain but that is a common thing I’ve seen people do so it feels likely.
