>explicit

If we're doing semantics:

">(of a person) stating something in a clear and detailed way.

It is indeed" explicit ".

>No, it's pretty obvious that it's a flub

"binders full of women" was a flub. It was still a PR disaster. We've now moved beyond "grab them by the pussy" and we can't muster any rage now?

The charts don't really mean much given how much the admins have already contradicted this and talk about how crime is rampant in [insert city to be invaded].

>then what do we call it if someone straight up says that he supports pedophiles?

Explicit. Still meets the definition. I don't think we need to argue about spectrum of explicit. We can bring "literal" back or "with genuine intent" if we want.
