Did he use that f-word, though? At The Other Place, someone said he’d actually used something milder, but discussion has already taken off.

da

Both ‘fruit’ and ‘f***ot’.

I'm a 20-something queer woman and though I don't use f*g or similar myself, a shitton of queer men I know (mostly all cis gay/bi men) do use it, jokingly, to refer to themselves sometimes, especially on twitter or similar, almost as a kind of camp performance. Essentially none of them were alive in the 1980s, and those who were were tiny kids. (I've never really heard the 50-something gay men I know use it, but they're family friends I've also mostly only seen in mixed company and never heard them in full camp splendor, so who knows.) It's not at all uncommon as a camp jesting/almost a reclamation type thing among millennial queer men, in my experience, and I would not raise an eyebrow at a Gen Z queer man describing himself thusly, though obviously code switching, etc. mean it might not be appropriate in a mixed Discord server.

Did he delete the f***ot posts? I can see one instance of him calling a character a fruit and one instance of him referring to f*g bashing. And I don't remember ever seeing him use f***ot in the wild despite participating in many conversations with him.

fucking lol. he didn't delete the tboy posts so i doubt he deleted anything.

he's annoying enough on his own, why are people making shit up like he's using slurs every five seconds instead of focusing on his constant tmi overload. even the slurs he did use are dated like 12/1 to 12/3 and nothing after that wtf

[(Anonymous)]

No one's making shit up and no one said he's using slurs every five seconds. Have we got such a short memory that earlier this month is the distant past?

[(Anonymous)]

we're literally in a subthread where someone stated he used the full f-word despite him never having done so, in a larger subthread about him using the full f-word despite never having done so. that's making shit up.

He did, on at least one instance, very early on. Maybe he deleted, maybe shadow deleted; I have no receipts and I will not push the point, but it did happen.

Sorry coalie, but considering all the points in this thread where people have tried to spin this worse (like the post about him victimizing LGBT people by using the word) and the lack of other things being deleted, I feel like justifying all this based on one coalie claim of something they remember from a month ago is suspect at best.

There's several of us who remember. It's not just one.

Do you remember the context of the conversation and are you sure you aren't remembering the "f*g bashing" comment wrong? If it was the Yuletide server then a mod deleting it would make sense, but I doubt shadow stepped in to delete the self directed use of a reclaimed slur on EAD, none of the other posts that were called out earlier (and in more detail) were deleted, and I can't find any instances of someone asking him not to use the word or anything that would logically lead to a self deletion during the conversation.

it was on the yuletide server, several weeks ago. Most of the conversation wound up deleted- no idea if it was by a mod or by elijah themselves

Coalies can be annoyed about multiple things someone has done. That's our charter.
