    “Feminism” start like a slur to people who defend women vote, then they take the slur in their movement designation, egualism and humanism are already movements and study metods where they study why humans are patetics and beautiful at same time

        I can’t dechiper the latter half but it seems like they’re trying to say “feminist” started as a “slur” that was used against men and women who wanted women to be able to vote. Feminists “claimed” the slur so to speak and broadened its meaning to encapsulate more issues?

        But again I’m just guessing. English isn’t their first language. Maybe let’s not expect people to have perfect English on fucking Lemmy? lmao

            Sure, but you could have maybe tried to interpret it a little bit and ask them what they mean? Instead you opted to make public spectacle of something that a lot of non-native speakers are self-conscious of.

            Or you could just have not engaged. But again. You opted to make fun of someone because either you were being thoughtless/careless, or because you’re an asshole. Not a huge deal, but deserves being commented on.

        ok xenophobe

        Edit: very ironic to be called woke on a post discussing intersectionality btw.

        Let’s be clear. Making a joke at someone’s expense? That is an insult. If that insult is predicated on the fact they don’t know your native language as well as you do, that is an insult targeting their culture (or lack of full integration into your own).

        Assuming it from a western-centric perspective that the commenter themselves is from somewhere English is a native language: Definitionally, objectively, undeniably, it was xenophobia.

        If it was from another non-native English speaker… boohoo I called an asshole a xenophobe on the internet. Shut up, losers.

            It’s xenophobic to ridicule a non-native speaker and ask them if they had a stroke. You are ridiculing them and making a joke at their expense.

            You also have a lot of gall to comment on how other people speak, to be honest. Your mastery of the English language is lacking. Maybe it’s not your first language either?
