PROUDLY woke - and sad to see so much bigotry and fear in this community.
"Weaponize words"? Sorry, but this concept is, imho, often the problem of the person who hears/reads the, so-called, weaponized word. A simple "how are you" to a person expecting to be insulted could respond by saying, "are you implying that I'm sick or crazy or dangerous??". Words spoken are easily twisted and misinterpreted by someone with a, so-called, chip on their shoulder. Those who are expecting to be insulted can interpret anything to be an insult.
Yes, sometimes people do try to hurt or make fun someone else. But that is not always the case.
Everyone needs to lighten up a bit.
