As a Titans fan, I am for any roster move that puts an additional Edge player on the open market. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean if someone saying "you should openly care about the wellbeing of your fellow citizen" is enough to "push you from the cause" you were never going to support the cause anyway. You’re spot on. They probably never actually cared. They just wanted the “social currency” they gained from looking like they cared. It’s like when Nike pretends to care about a cause. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to balance things out, youth suicide is up across the board and especially in 'high risk' categories (poverty, broken homes, minorities, LBGTQ, etc). I read an article that suicidal thoughts were up to 25% amongst youth in 2020. Probably also has something to do with the pandemic. Not to demean your point, because obviously LBGTQ is a high risk group and needs support. In 2019, their survey found that 18% of LGBT youth attempted suicide. It was 15% in 2020. So flatly, no. You're wrong. As usual. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me pointing out the inconsistencies of what can and can't be discussed doesn't mean I'm offended. Your just making stuff up. For example there were warnings and bans handed out for discussing Lebron James' politics, but now we can have a full blown thread on Carl Nassib's sexuality - even though both topics (politics and sex) were not allowed to be discussed. Maybe you should work on your comprehension before you go throwing out nonsense. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve been accused of it when arguing football. Sometimes you’re on the ropes and gotta defend your guy. And every single time someone called me out for a bad faith argument, they were right. They’re really not that easy to hide. And Homerism isn’t nearly the same as being Homophobic 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sexual orientation can be discussed in a positive way, politics can’t be discussed at all. It’s not inconsistent to treat two different topics in a different way. They’re two different topics. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take it to PM with him if you have questions. as dome mentioned, its not about politics. If you have no specific issues with the conversation at hand, then maybe you can be done complaining about it.

You’re not being persecuted because someone disagrees with your worldview. I would say there is a growing movement among the internet-age youth that is anti established religion and has a pretty vocal crowd that deems people of religious as bad humans. If the numbers arent growing, they are definitely getting louder. Maybe that isnt persecution, but it is a form of bigotry. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
