Decline Button sanitization suggestions

Can't handle the bacon

Guest
Itt we make helpful suggestions in preparation for the inevitable shitstorm that will force this forum to engage in widespread sanitization of "problematic" buttons that "spread dangerous misinformation" by serving as "racist dog-whistles" and rallying calls for "white rage and bigotry/supremacy". Not to mention a flagrant promotion of potentially triggering -ist and -phobic content.

We've already seen similar things when "you have issues" got changed to "someone has issues" because it was ToO dIrEcT aNd aGgReSSiVe, and the rainbow button got changed from an already euphemistic "fabulous" to "fabulously optimistic".

Let's prepare some suggestions in advance, so they can be implemented as soon as needed:

"absolutely haram" -> "absolutely harambe" and the image swapped for a gorilla head
"how dare you?!" -> image swapped for a generic goblin child (Greta Thunberg is a registered trademark of the World Economic Forum, WHO and Monsanto)
"Deus Vult" -> removed entirely (such euro-centric bigotry cannot be tolerated in a multicultural society of good global citizens)
"retardred" -> "Trump-supporter", in order to stop ableist bigotry, and also to speak truth to power
"honk honk" -> image of a happy clown, pepe the frog is a racist dog-whistle
"begone thot!" -> "begone, toxic masculinity!"
"consume product" -> "soy kibble is actually good for you"
"(autism)" -> "you are perfect just the way you are"
"cuck" -> "non-monogamous relationships are valid"
"bro, do you even lift?!" -> "friend, are you even vaxxed?!"
"cool story bro" -> "cool story, sir and/or madam"
"brofist" -> "peoplefist"
"cheers!" -> "mazel tov!"

And can we please, please, FINALLY implement a pronouns section under each profile? It's [CURRENT_YEAR] ya'll, wtf is wrong with your priorities?! We are a community!

The button are already sanitized:

"It's the kikes" -> "It was aliens"
"faggot" -> "fabulously optimistic"
"Heil Hitler!" -> "racist"
"Kill yourself" -> "Edgy"
"Fried Chicken" (with KFC box .jpg) -> gone entirely
Numerous others -> gone entirely
