Rule 4: Keep it civil. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a jerk. It’s not acceptable to say another user is a jerk. Cussing is fine.
Rule 5: Be excellent to each other. Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, ableist, will be removed.

This quote is so fucking troubling. His PR people are evil, so I hope it's super hard on them. He didn't have the fucking privilege? If that doesn't say that he's a now an admitted child rapist, I don't know what does.
Take out the slur and I'll put this back up. I agree with your sentiment, but you could have said it in many other ways.
Fair. I don't know how to edit, but I'll accept the reason for taking it down. Honestly didn't mean it as a slur, but i agree that there is no real way to distinguish.
Part of what the alt right and Trump supporters have done is to renormalize using that slur. It’s important to recognize that it’s usage is part of the “backlash” and not something a good person should say.
Completely fair, regardless of how i might or might not intend it, it's use has been made too sensitive to use in a derogatory way at all. If the mod can repost without it, or send me the comment I'd prefer to repost without it, just can't remember the rest.
Do you know how to edit it if I put it back? I don't mind putting it back if you edit it.
Yes, i would edit, thanks
Please edit asap
Sorry, missed the message. Maybe i can remember enough to rewrite
