Not a slur as such, but completely unnecessary as the vast majority of the population who are heterosexual would never use it or think of using it.
The word transgender comes from the Latin prefix trans, which loosely translates to ‘on the other side of’. Someone who is transgender feels like the sex they were assigned at birth does not match up with how they identify.
Cis is also a Latin prefix, meaning ‘on this side of’, and cisgender refers to the exact opposite. So technically it should apply to those who fell they are opposite to their physical gender, but the woke progressives have flipped it to refer to heterosexual people specifically.
There are people who believe the word cisgender is offensive, with some believing that it promotes binaries of what it means to be male or female.
It’s been criticised by LGB and intersex scholars, who believe that it does not take into account myrias other factors when it comes to peoples’ sexuality and gender.
Of course it's a slur. We're not cis or het, we're normal.

Tim Pool is a dick who's making money by saying what the right wing want while claiming left wing credentials from years ago. Have you heard of "Critical Ignoring"?
Commie always do this dumb shit. The simple thing to do is just not negotiate with them. Give them nothing, and take from them everything...
Did you just compare the word cis to the n word 🤦♂️
