We've become so numb to what we're saying

from Macklemore and Ryan Lewis (Ft. Macklemore & Mary Lambert) – Same Love Lyrics on Rap Genius

Meaning

People don’t even think about what they’re saying before they say it. The internet has numbed us and desensitized us to people’s emotions. We say things without thinking how they could hurt someone. The constant use of derogatory terms for homosexuals as generic insults means that not everyone who uses them does so out of hatred of homosexuality. No matter, people still use them synonymously with hatred.
