MistyCee The word "Colored" has a lot of negative baggage but the SWFA is lying because it isn't a slur. I'm fuming at this point. Absolutely furious. We should avoid "Colored" but not because it's a slur but because it does have a lot of negative baggage.
But merely having negative baggage does not transform a non slur into a slur. People used "Colored person" both ways in the past. Some did it to hurt, others did it merely to describe. it's not necessarily a pejorative but here we have the SWFA insisting it's a slur and a black up-and-coming crying crocodile tears that lackey didn't refer to another black author as black.

the guy she called colored btw? He doesn't care. he didn't mind. She was trying to pay him a compliment for all the barriers he'd overcome to enter and also called him amazing.]
Mercedes lackey did nothing wrong. it's the Nebula who fucked up here, and badly. the SWFA has become a bunch of spineless cowards who folded and are now actively LYING About her. Who you know well spent an entire lifetime fighting for tolerance and inclusion.
The COWARDS really epically fucked up on this one. Jen Brown should have been told tough shit, suck it up and deal with it. Instead, she succeeded at getting the SWFA to falsely accuse Lackey simply because the word has some painful associations in peoples minds to the past.
