The point is that Internet people are weird and have their own fads. These so-called “slurs” are meaningless. It’s just like perhaps there’s some middle-school class somewhere that’s decided that white shoes are lame. The majority of the world doesn’t care.

These fads are transitory. The people participating think the fads are important but they’re just fads. Most of them are just aping the other guy. The Internet guys think they’re having an opinion but really it’s just flock behaviour and will change.

Once upon a time everyone on the Internet hated gauges (earrings that space out the earlobe) and before that it was hipsters.

These are like the Harlem Shake. There is no meaning to it. People are just doing as others do. It’ll pass.
