Why does everyone suddenly seem to think it’s ok to say the R word again? I feel like I hadn’t heard it in years and suddenly everyone around me is using it, and I see it on Reddit all the time. Am I imagining it? Is anyone seeing this? I don’t even know what to say when it’s suddenly just everyone in a group and everyone acts like it’s normal.
It’s breaching out of the edgy circles into normie culture again, I think
This. Lots of people at my work have been casually using it. Started around a year ago I’d say. We’re in a highly regulated industry and there’s usually lots of “decorum”. Feels like a societal shift.
