ppl act like the word queer is all well and reclaimed and perfectly neutral but tbh ime, ppl who ID as queer as so quick to use the word as a plural noun for ppl they're angry at
which just sounds so derogatory lmfao, but it's dropped so casually

I'm not even invested in the whole reclamation thing, but queer being considered Reclaimed™ is ironic cuz amongst insular gays circles it feels like the word 🚬 has much less bite/more affectionate usage than queer considering how Everytime theres daily discourse the word "Queers" always seems to get said so .. acerbically and angrily at whichever portion of the proverbial Community™ ppl are beefing about du jour lol
