And you can’t let it be. Well me neither, but i will just add you to my blocklist now. That will end this dumb/pointless conversion for sure.

Yes, if you change the complete context and make major changes to the sentences, then both can be true. I am sorry that I made that mistake, I beg for forgiveness

a) ad hominem and b) where did you take the information from that I am an anime fan? Only because I know the definition of the Japanese word “Moe”? A definition that is only one Wikipedia search away.

Maybe you should get some education and logical thinking first before you send others into re-education.

As I said in another post this was only a demonstration that people can read and interpret negative meaning in every combination of words if they really want to. I even gave the definition why “Ghoul” can be read in a negative way, but yeah it is easier to pull the conversation down to the ad hominem level like you did.

So in that regard was my little demonstration really successful, way more so then I intended.

To be honest, I don’t care at all what they use as a funny wordplay, Moe Ghoul is even funnier than the older choice in my eyes. But my personal opinion about it is irrelevant, sorry that I have one.

I really think we should end the conversation here, because I already tried to end it with the nice weekend.

We talk about personal opinions, there is not much that is more personal then personal opinions. And you are making ad hominem claims (my soberness) so yes it is about me.

But it is not me how brought it to the personal level, that was you with calling me drunk. Before that it was completely abstract and impersonal.

🤣😉

You begin with “this clearly has nothing to do with racial slurs” and have near the end “they probably changed it because coon is a slur for black people”.

This is self contradictory, both statements can’t be true at the same time.

I am not offended by anything here, I couldn’t care less about what they use as fun wordplay in there.

Had a slow day and lots of free time at a train ride and just want to show that everything written can be misinterpreted and misunderstood. There is a bad meaning or derogatory slang for nearly every word out there.

I am drunk because I have the belief that everyone should be truly equal in front of the law and that rules about a thing/concept should be valid for all instances of that thing/concept? If you think so then, ok I am drunk and go home. Have a nice weekend!

Bullying should never be ok, and rules should be valid and applicable for everyone.

Nobody should be a valid target for verbal abuse, not even anime nerds.

So if a rule against verbal harm and abuse are implemented (which I am not against at all) then such rule should be valid and used for all cases. There is no equality if new inequality is created in the process.

Not a bigger stretch then with the Ty Coon, that was obviously a play on the Tycoon.

It was not me who started to read bad things into word play, but by that rules is Moe Ghoul offensive too.

So instead of a racial slur they now make fun of Anime/Manga/Video Game fans

“Moe (Japanese: 萌え; pronounced [mo.e] ⓘ), sometimes romanized as moé, is a Japanese word that refers to feelings of strong affection mainly towards characters in anime, manga, video games, and other media directed at the otaku market. Moe, however, has also gained usage to refer to feelings of affection towards any subject”

That in combination with Ghoul

“In folklore, a ghoul (from Arabic: غول, ghūl) is a demon-like being or monstrous humanoid, often associated with graveyards and the consumption of human flesh”

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghoul

creates a not very nice combination.

German router and network products company AVM learned the hard way that this is a bad idea. They use fritz.box for their router interface page and it was great until tld .box became publicly available and somebody registered fritz.box.

Having a reserved local/internal only tld is really great to prevent such issues.
