I downloaded the app Hangman 44k and while playing, one of the words to be guessed was "faggoty" This is a highly offensive derogatory term meaning among other things, a gay male. This game could have been played by anyone, including children which would be bad. But the bigger picture is the insensitivity towards those who take offense to such derogatory words. Especially given the history of oppression in the United States and the world as well as the on-goings therein.
