What is r and why does it warrant investigation?

Rope. Marijuana. It’s often censored on social media because algorithms refuse to promote anything controversial or violent. As a result, folks online have created euphemisms for it. Rather than saying “I’m smoking rope” you’ll often find people stating “I’m king grope” to avoid AI cancelation. Hope that helps.

"got em on the ropes", "show em the ropes", "rope-a-dope", "soul on a roll but you treat it like soap on a rope cause the beats and the lines are so dope", it was right in front of our faces!

r is a slur fort mentally disabled people and it's being investigated because the police love beating up disabled people of all sorts.
