I think many people of the older generations like his are not really aware of the impact and meaning of certain words and the pain they can cause. Those grew up using those slurs, seeing no harm in them. It's so normalised they don't know better. Sometimes you really need someone calling you out on something like this to understand it. The younger generations have the privilege to get educated from a very young age on this matter. I am glad Damon has shared this story. Hopefully he inspires others to put a step in the right direction too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyaway 15,350 Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Didn't he also turn a blind eye when he knew about H Weinstein's abuse by choosing not to say anything at all? I'm not a fan of him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, I definitely know from first-hand experiences that older generations don't see that some words they use are very harmful, so I do hope that this shows people to educate themselves and not continue their usage of slurs 。゚☁ glued up, sometimes it's too much ☁ ゚。 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HIM820 1,612 Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Um to all the comments saying he’s of the older generation… he’s 50- not 80. Yea it’s technically older but his generation is still somewhat culturally relevant to know certain things. That on top of the fact he isn’t working in some kind of field where he’s in a bubble with men just like him. He’s in the entertainment industry. He should 100% know better.

If we were talking about a baby boomer, ok. But not gen x. He should have known better a LONG time ago. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaLuna 12,732 Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Just goes to show, sometimes children are the educated ones, not the parents. But come on, if in this day and age you still don't know that word is offensive, then I don't know what to tell you. Also his excuse about using that word in a movie, as if it makes it okay Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
