  • You can be bad at dota, but if you queue into the English queue can you please for the love of God. SPEAK ENGLISH.

    the game has a language based queue for a god damn reason.

    I don’t speak French so I don’t queue into the French queue and hurl racist insults at the French for not understanding English.

    So why does every fucking Spanish speaker that does speak in the English queue seem to be dead set on insulting every English speaker.

    I don’t even talk in matches, I’m just so tired of seeing it and it tilting my allies into oblivion.

    I’m starting to think riot was right. Gamers shouldn’t be allowed the privilege of speaking. It never turns out well in mobas.



  • The way retard has changed over the years is wild to me. Cause around me there are large communities of people with mental and physical disabilities who aggressively try to tell people that they are infact retarded. It’s the word they grew up with and are fighting tooth and nail to keep it from turning into a slur. Even tho it’s been used as one against those very people for years.

    It’s such a weird thing to watch from the side line. Makes me wonder if this is what it was like during the rise of rap and the n word.

    Tho it’s also getting to the point there’s so many letter-slurs that it’s getting stupid. At some point feels like we are going to have to either just stop caring and accept that intentions matter more then the words them self. Else we are goanna run out of letters to describe slurs.

    Makes it very hard to have meaningful discourse around the topic. To be fair the fear of bans, and punishment for even saying some words regardless of context or topic also just makes it very iffy to talk about this topic in many places.

    Hell iv seen people banned on etymology fourms and subs because someone said a “letter” slur with in the context of explaining the origin of the word. It’s crazy what the internet has become recently.
