  • Yes and no.

    Reclaiming a word can only be done by those who are affected by it negatively and it should always be used in a positive way by people attempting reclaiming, never negatively. I’ve seen no evidence of them doing this or of them ever being affected by that word negatively personally.

    Also intent is not magical, it doesn’t absolve people of the hurt they cause by doing something, all it might do is explain they weren’t trying to be cruel, however that doesn’t magically absolve anyone of anything and if they carry on doing it regardless of hurting someone etc, then they show their intent was really not what they claim it was.


  • Even if that’s the case, that still makes it an immature name for what should be a serious project, because I doubt they’ve ever seriously engaged with the concept outside of them naming their project that, hey that’s an idea!

    Like, I don’t mind fun. But as someone into kink too, the name of a project shouldn’t invoke anything to do with either ableism or BDSM, especially since kink is not understood by most people correctly, unless a project is related to kink in some way, or ableism (which I’m going to seriously be suspicious of your project and motivations unless you’re disabled and are reclaiming it) it’s still a very bad name that doesn’t really explain anything about it at a glance/first hearing it.
