Though your actual initial response was a 'kop out'.
@Inigo Montoya explained why he thinks we havent come 'a long way since'. 'Long way' is relative to the person.
If you think major people in positions of power coming out with offensive terms (and then being elected after the fact doesnt say something about society, not sure what else to add)
But from that point, your response was rather blunt sarcasm not taking the conversation seriously and coming off offended that somebody disagreed with you.
Which is a fair point, but then what actual research has been done to find out the differences.
I dont mean this aimed at you (or just at you) but what have people who dont get the difference done to find out, except posting on this forum? Have they google searched it or asked the relevant people before questioning it?
I could understand if somebody said, I tried to find out but couldnt find anything so im asking on here.
or if they are asking here as first port of call as they visit this site more than anyother place, fair enough. But then its odd (and this isnt just related to this forum), when people try and educate, there is pushback to not accepting or not willing to accept.
