It's also offensive and an outdated, hurtful word. Please refrain from using it, especially as an insult.

I got modded for it once, a few years ago. Shortenings of larger acceptable words being slurs will never not annoy me.

The people who call others "homo" and expect anyone to believe they don't hate gay people.

You can try, but nobody would take offense.

Young man, I was once in your shoes
I said, I was down and out with the blues
I felt no man cared if I were alive
I felt the whole world was so tight

That's when someone came up to me
And said, young man, take a walk up the street
There's a place there called the YMCA
They can start you back on your way

do you guys think there will ever be a time in the future where "homo" becomes a slang term that just means "human", without any connotation about homosexuality? like, people would greet their friends with a "wut up, my homo"

or maybe it would have to be an alternate timeline where neanderthals and/or other subspecies of humans never died off, and so it would become a greeting specifically between one homo sapiens and another

seems like it would make more sense than how it's used today, since "homo" isn't and never was only just the prefix for homosexual
In a post-bigot world, maybe.
