Wow. The toy came first. Perverts expropriated the name later. Ever see faggots talk about 'my little pony' before 1983?
Well, which is it, perverts or pedophiles or as you so elegantly term it, ^”faggots”? Those aren’t all the same circle in the Venn diagram.
Jeez. This reflexive bigotry is a big problem on our side, it seems.
Also, the word you’re looking for is “appropriate.” Expropriation refers to property, not a name.
