I am trying to read but I think Yuri is homophobic? Why does he keep calling him a “homo” (derogatory way) when he literally has friends that are gay? Even if it was an enemy or someone I did not like, calling them a homo and making fun of that person just insults every person you know that is lgbtq
Note: I reuploaded this because someone said something so unfathomable. I want to say that it is not naive to believe that saying a slur to someone reinforces harmful stereotypes and insults towards everyone it is associated with. Slurs carry much more intent than that single moment you are insulting someone. That is just common knowledge, not naivety. It really hurts to see that the person that replied to me could say something like that so confidently. Slurs and identity based insults tell people “you are lesser”. That is why it can hurt everyone of that group
