Okay, because as I was trying to show not everyone considers them so in every context, if the context is one of reclaiming and positive then that might be a context where they aren’t considered slurs.
I’ve definitely seen it in other places, but tumblr is a strange site. I’m not sure exactly why but users there tend to be a bit more emboldened about things like this and there’s lots of injokes, cultures and memes that happen only there.
Not everything is good on tumblr of course, them emboldening can lead to a lot of people talking about things they don’t understand and attacking anyone that doesn’t agree with them. That does happen everywhere, however, tumblr is seen as one of the ‘nicer’ commercial social media sites and so they feel like that makes them more justified in their opinions, would be my guess.
Also, to me at least, your words were fine and made sense. I get that words in text can be difficult, especially to translate thoughts to, I have the same problem myself sometimes.
