She was straight up dehumanizing, the term doesn’t matter if they are straight up saying everything it represents
I read it, but that term alone is enough, even without doubling down. She is just garbage
My view is she could replace it with whatever preferred term and it wouldn’t be any less offensive so it’s worse than just saying a slur
