I can't say "The R Word" on epicmafia but fortunately I can still spam it on literally 95% of the internet where SJW's haven't achieved totalitarianism, thank god.

The R word isn't a slur. If it were, the FCC would moderate it. The FCC is probably more respectable than the EM volunteer janitor squad, imo.

It wasn't hateful comments until the EM SJW party took control of the senate (this year). In fact the r word and autist were so common as insults in competitive games that they're still probably the most used words in site history
