thurs., 18 mar., 2021: turkish sobriquets, i.: give us This Day our Daily Curse

[NOTE: these terms are weaponized language, & meant to give offense. Which is the whole & compleat & total & entire point of insult & invective, obscenity & blasphemy, & other political speech.]

TURKISH:  Bad asl kuni!  ‡‡

   

 ‡‡) “[You are an]  Eeeeeeevil back-stabbing faggot queen....”

[Context is everything with this one. This may or may not be deeply insulting, depending on who’s saying it... between friends or close acquaintances,  just yr std. passive aggressive banter.  But if it comes from a stranger,  yeah,  it’s meant to be insulting & homophobic.]
