    Nah, its not a slur until the kids on xbox live start using it

    But they won’t. Calling someone cis as an insult online doesnt have the same impact

      Using Cis when using voice will always be confused with Sis, as in sister. That’s gonna sound very interesting as a non-insult.

    In my country (Spain) there is an organization called “Centre for Sociological Research”, which in Spanish it’s called “Centro de Investigaciones Sociológicas” (best known as CIS).

    So, is that name also a slur, according to the free speech absolutist? What about politicians and journalists who talk about its surveys?

      Elon is too busy being angry at trans people to see all this nuance you’re just throwing out there. You think he has time to consider what people are saying or that other people have thoughts and feelings?
