I thought bipoc meant bisexual people of colour for a good like 3 months, it made me wonder why the bisexuals were making such a big deal about themselves

Here's a secret op
there is no way to refer to a homosex that isn't a slur, the only option to counter that is to embrace it

They'll change up the wording and labeling every few years or months in order to create new possibilities of "oppression" for whitey who doesn't spend all day on Twitter keeping up with the latest trends
