Nothing against gay people either cause I actually get along with them and respect them. Or handicap people.

But the words have their uses.

I’ve never heard someone I respect use the word “cuck.” Definitely never heard someone say it IRL either. Incels usually don’t broadcast who they are IRL.

I'm a Literature major and very anti-censorship: if you try and say a particular word (or books that use that word), should be banned, I'll be first in line to fight you.

But at the same time, words like "cuck", or using "gay" as a generic "bad" ... they're just lazy. It's like using the adjective "cool": yes you can use it in a whole lot of sentences, but should you?

There's almost certainly some other more descriptive adjective you could use instead of "cool" ... but it would take one micron more mental energy to use one of those words.

It's the same deal with "cuck", "fag", or "retard": it's never like you need, and there's no other word you could use instead which A) would be more descriptive, and B) wouldn't make some of your fellow humans feel hated for who they are ...

... but it would take a tiny bit more mental energy.

Cuck is needed because it fills the gap between faggot and douche. And not quite the same as retard.
Hazek and other the Dork Men of Odus really are connoisseurs of immature and offensive slurs.
