My sister's fiance is a TTY operator. *language warning*

 
He doesn't talk about his job much.

I always thought, "What a nice thing to be able to help people communicate."

More and more hearing impaired people are using cell phones to text, but TTY is still a thing, particularly with the elderly.

Today, I learned, not such a nice job.

Apparently, a lot of these people are racist and homophobic. He has to both transcribe and read horrible things about the n-words and the n-word lovers. And about how n-words and s-words are ruining the country.

Except, he has to SAY those words, and type them out.

Ugh. I couldn't do it. I really don't think I could.

Well, whoop-whoop-whoop-de-do.

I don't suppose it's occurred to the covetous primitive that being deaf and having to use such devices is more of a nuisance, a hassle, than being hearing and having to listen to our obscenities.

As "problems," they're nowhere near in magnitude.  The covetous primitive's relative needs to be grateful.

The DUmmie is hoping someone asks for specific examples of the language so they can have an excuse for saying n****r a bunch of times.

Yeah, but what is an "s-word"??

The Democrat and Republican parties are simply the left and right wings of the same bird of prey.

The road to freedom is paved with dead liberals.

Deaf people, like blind people, are notoriously scatological in our language.

I have no idea why, but the phenomenon's frequently noticed.

Myself, I keep it pretty much under control; I write the "s" word over on DU Jr. a lot more times than I utter it in real life.

A family friend is a hearing person who is part of the deaf community locally. I've heard indirectly through my kids who are her friend similar things.

A person uttering the N-Word in a store will be overheard by God knows how many people. A deaf person signing the N-Word to a friend in the same context will probably be only understood by the friend. So social restraint is diminished by that semi-privacy. That's my theory, anyway.

This assumes, of course, that Coventina wasn't making @#$% up.
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

If someone wants to call someone a derogatory name, they should just call them "democrats".

"They're a bunch of democrat lovers." "Those democrats are ruining the country."

See, it works.

Then-Chief Justice John Marshall observed, “Between a balanced republic and a democracy, the difference is like that between order and chaos.”

John Adams warned in a letter, “Remember democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet, that did not commit suicide.”

s-word = Shitavarious a common negro name.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.
