>>91402509Nobody has ever claimed or pretended the nicknames come from a place endearment. They were always meant to be mocking. Fucking monkey isn't coming from a place of endearment either. Nor was Yamada.
Now you can argue the way to handle being mocked by the larger community is to never let them know you're hurt or to take ownership of their insults while keeping them at arm's length but you can't pretend there's any actual love or respect in the mix.
