    Mods,

    Ok, everyone has had their say. Can we move this to the OT section where it belongs?

    well I certainly don't think of homosexuality as negative so there goes your explanation of the "linguistic evolution". I mean I know you wanna try and break it down, that's cool but I disagree.

    It's a thread about a Blazer player.

    What does it have to do with basketball? Either the original tweets or the ensuing discussion?

    And you also weren't the one who originated the use of the term as a pejorative, so that's not really a relevant comment. My explanation is basic common sense.

    He also posted a vine video of himself taking a shit. Should I start a thread about that, too? It is, after all, a video of a Blazer player taking a shit. Never mind that he took that shit five years before he became a Blazer.

    I believe it's the same as "fuck" and "fuckin'". Many words have multiple meanings.

    Nope, because they're not obvious like with gay. I can make assumptions with the second one (black communities decided to take control over a word previously used against them), but that would just be speculation.

    He sounds like a /pol/ user, so he might actually be #ourguy.

    I just looked at Collins twitter account and I am more concerned that Zach is a huge Lebron fan. Huge!

    He also doesn't like Hillary.

    But he does like dogs. Little cute ones.

    He also retweets WorldStar a lot.

    What's amazing is that he's made 16,000 tweets. I only got to June of 2016 before my eyes glazed over.

    If anyone wants to see if he's removed his tweets from 2012, have fun - https://twitter.com/zcollins_33/with_replies

    Gay doesn't just mean one thing just like these other words. Us idiotic humans unfortunately give them power though and run with it. I'm just saying, homosexuality doesn't cross my mind when I use the word gay a certain way. Same with fag. Fag also means a few things originally. yeah okay I get the whole using a negative as a negative point but god damn

    You spread a lot of negativity around the forum. You don't have much good to say most times.

    I guess that doesn't matter to you.
