Quote: You’re allowed to be bothered by it, look through all my replies I haven’t used the phrase “boomer” to reply in a belittling way when dealing with this topic at all since it came up, but the fact of the matter is this argument takes away from issues that actual marginalized groups have to face. I’d get bothered if people called me a moron when I fuck up but that doesn’t mean I go crying to ban the word moron. Be upset about it but this isn’t a hill worth dying on. Especially when the one other person who complained about this word’s usage today threw an ableist slur in his retort to being called a boomer. Again, you have every right to be upset at the word all you want but this word isnt an intolerant derogatory slur, so your best bet is to just ignore the people who use it if it bothers you. These are bothersome annoyances to the people that hear it, just as younger generations faced the bothersome annoyance of older generations using millennial as an annoying way to call them lazy and entitled, without crying that it’s a slur.

In short if you’re looking for HO to ban people for saying boomer, I literally have nothing I can offer you to make you feel better but to say that you’re best off ignoring the people who are bugging you.

The fact that this is like a million times less because it's just a fucking discord emote react is hilarious to me. Some of you need to get a grip.
