The r-word is a demoralizing slur that should NEVER be used as an insult. Trump did it yesterday and plenty of otherwise tolerant blue accounts jumped on board using it to describe Trump instead.
Take the pledge below to stop using the r-word. It is wholly unacceptable.

Your Thanksgiving gravy tastes better when you use union mushrooms. Let's give a huge thanks to workers like "Adan" who harvest mushrooms for Monterey Mushrooms under a UFW contract. On an average day, he picks 240-280 of the blue baskets you see in this vid. #WeFeedYou

Oh look, they’re finally making it official what they’ve been doing with our data. Not that we didn’t already know that, and know that it was not only unethical, immoral, against our own historical policies, procedures, and ethics, but also illegal. But. Nice of y’all to finally say it out loud. 🤬🤬🤬
For months, the Social Security Administration was quietly sharing sensitive data about immigrants with DHS. Now it’s official. www.wired.com/story/social...
