…I just saw someone unironically say "but the nazis use queer as a slur so why don't you see a problem with using it." Yes. Queer is a slur. It is historically a slur. But we use it because it is now _our_ word. We have reclaimed it and declared that it is ours See also the queer nation manifesto

(Also in general I think that if you are going to run away from everything that the nazis use to refer to us by in a disparaging tone of voice you are going to run out of words relatively quickly: they have a habit of stealing others words even when they aren't making up their own slurs)
