TIL ‘41’ has a long history as a slur for homosexuals

Not a common one, at least not in the US.
in the US it's an anti trans reference to the % of trans people who had suicidal ideation in one study
I have never heard of it in this context before this post and I live in the us.
It's actually the number of brain cells lost every time someone reads stupid shit like this on the internet
Just because you have never heard of something doesn't mean that it doesn't exist.
You were one 15 second search away from not being a cunt on the internet but here you are, being proud of how ignorant you are.
People from these groups get pretty well informed about various dogwhistles and slurs that the general population won't, because they're used to harass us.
