Here’s a fun way to get around this: Navckid Keyd. If people wish to tag Dick without the implied slur (personal opinion here: it is his legal name omg whomst? Really? Uuggghhh? Why…) use the fake name used in Mary Poppins that rearranges to his name in the end credits.
So you can tag the actor in a fun and innovative way.
or just… call him… dick van dyke… because that’s his name…
God sometimes people here are so fucking ridiculous.
