Would you consider banning the term JFC?

If you get to request a ban because you find that offensive, why can't other people ban things that you say because they find them offensive?

So you understand why some people find it offensive, but it’s too much to ban it? So why can’t I say the N word? Or f*g? I know those words offend some people but I’m not black or gay so I should be able to use them, correct? And if you don’t like it just avoid the threads that use those words.

OP here, and no, this is not the same thing. JFC is an affront to Christians. It is deliberately taking the name of Jesus Christ in vain. Yes, I consider it offensive.

Oh FFS. I am Jewish and say JFC a lot - and I can tell you I have never once said it because it's "titillating" to irritate Christians. It's just a common phrase that expresses that you are vehemently shaking your head at something.

Thanks for confirming what we already know--this is a thing used by non-Christians against Christians. Find another phrase to express your vehement head-shakes, because this is offensive. What if MFT for mazel tov became popular. Offensive, right?

I see. So you are a hateful bigot and the only thing stopping you from expressing it is that you feel it is socially unpopular to do so.

Thanks for shedding some light into the mind of a persecuted Christian.

Isn't it time to be back out protesting against Satanic mask-wearing ordinances or something?

How in the world do you get "hateful bigot" out of this? Are you the type that will complain racism if I order strawberry ice cream instead of chocolate?

What? No. Of course not. And neither would anyone else. Obviously you have some weird drama going on inside your mind that is causing you to see conflict and persecution where there isn't any.

I got hateful bigot from the fact you immediately wanted to see how you can offend people who come from minority groups. Testing the waters to see what you are allowed to say now. Are you able to use our terms in novel ways that could offend us? Can you get away with it? Or - poor you! - are you stuck only being able to stick to the commonly used terms that come from the dominant culture here in these United States.

We are truly not thinking about you at all when we use the term JFC. Unlike you, trying to see how you can offend someone else.

The entitlement and delusion is unreal.

What "entitlement and delusion?" Can't anyone see that mocking and vulgarizing ANY religion - Islam, Judaism, Christianity, Hinduism, even atheism, is wrong and offensive?

The entitlement to think that you have the right to censor what others say. Is it right to say things that are offensive? Perhaps not. But, the only thing you are entitled to is the right to decide whether or not you subject yourself to potentially offensive content. Put your big girl panties on and keep it moving.

And that's your response when people say the N word too, right?

I Just said this at 17:20. I’m with you. It it sounds like only some groups are worthy of consideration but not others.

Do I think it's okay to use the N word? No. Do I think I have the right to dictate whether or not someone else uses it? Also, no.

It's banned on DCUM and on some social media platforms, just FYI. As it should be. Because it's - you know - offensive to people.

If you can’t tell the difference between JFC and the n word maybe you should stay off the internet

Well, glad JFC and MFT are still fair game!

They both are offensive to a large group of people. What else is there to know?
