create implication ableist_slur (103) -> slur (815)
create implication racial_slur (112) -> slur (815)
create implication sexist_slur (366) -> slur (815)
create implication transphobic_slur (27) -> transphobia (46)

create implication racial_slur (112) -> racism (243)
create implication sexist_slur (366) -> sexism (60)
create implication transphobic_slur (27) -> transphobia (46)

Reason: Just a BUR for slurs. Apparently Homophobic Slur is already in the process of being implicated.

EDIT: The bulk update request #5893 (forum #382134) has been rejected by @slyroon.

create implication transphobic_slur (21) -> transphobia (42)

This line's duplicated in the BUR

Slurs can be used without explicit or implicit bigotry, ie reclaiming. I reclaim several of these, using them to describe myself isn't transphobia or homophobia. While it is generally against the rules to use one on this site, as you can get a record for it, I don't think we should be automatically implying slurs into bigotry. If a slur is used in a negative light on a post, it needs to be tagged with homophobia/racism/sexism/etc as well, but becomes useless for blacklisting if ALL posts- even positive, affirming ones- are implied to homophobia, transphobia, etc. See also Rainbow Dash's post on the slur implication BUR for turning slur-related tags more neutral.
