So I'm going back to my car on my way home from work, and I find a flyer on my windshield. With this design on it, advertizing Bleedingheartsclub.com.
As it turns out, it's just a new company making politically oriented shirts and supporting worthy causes. Okay, I can get down with that. And I'm certainly no fan of Condi. But the term 'Warho' (obviously meant to be a clever pun on Warhol) gets to me, for some reason.
Am I arguing that Condi hasn't been a shameless proponent of the kerfuffle that is the Iraq war? No. But I'm not sure that gives us the right to call her a 'ho'. That kind of derogatory term just drives me up the wall, in a way that 'bitch' or 'cunt' dont. (The turn of phrase 'bros before hos' especially wants to make me smack someone around)
As angry as I might be with her (in a generalized way) calling her a 'ho' somehow makes *me* feel like the bad guy, for propogating that word. It would be like me calling a black man the N word.
Am I weird for feeling this?
