Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

I have noticed this too. I feel there's been a general uptick in hateful language being used, 'ironically' or not. Could be a kind of cultural swing back from the widespread check on people's use of those words, whether that's an assuredly conservative cultural shift I'm not sure yet.
But yes it's certainly perceivable and I think it's a bad sign, I'm sure this is only the start of this kind of reaction.
