    I engaged with what you said, I said I dont think it’s right to base whether something is a slur based on the root meaning of the word. I think that’s incorrect and a little ridiculous.

            Why would I ignore the thing I wanted to talk about? Do you find it weird that you accused me of not engaging with you yet you seem to ignore what I say?
