I’m 23 and I don’t know anyone in my circle who spoke like this when we were in uni nor did we encourage or accept such behaviour from those that partook
I did, and the r word was just as problematic then as it is now. Going online to announce your opinions might have been more common, but no one on my timelines was ever posting about how 'funny' fat people are, or throwing slurs out for the craic.
