This thread has been a challenge, but this has been the most educational and fulfilling thread I've been a part of - challenges and all. I've learned a lot, no lie. I definitely think it’s been worth the effort you’ve had to put in. 😂 Edited June 24, 2021 by LETSGOBROWNIES 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A little surprising tbh. It’s been nice being able to discuss something substantial for a change. Sure, there’s been some contentious posts, but we have those in pretty much every thread. Very few have been disrespectful or egregious. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And perhaps I "defended" (lol) a couple posters because a few of you are being jerks and ostracizing "allies" as you call it. But either way - quit pulling up old post in attempts to make me argue with you. You know I cant block you any more so you are just pestering me. Oh, I'm sorry. Some of us go to bed during the night. I'm sorry you're being held accountable for something you said not even a half day ago, while you continue to make the same argument just worded differently even right now. Perhaps you defended? Are you for real? The last day and a half, at least half of your posts have been defending their honor. Even the post that I specifically asked you to tell me your thoughts without defending their honor, you still found a way to shoehorn it in. And then nearly the entire other half has been combative and telling the LGBT+ voices and those arguing alongside them that they're being bullies. And no, I won't stop arguing with you so long as you continue to argue these points. If you'd like someone to stop arguing with you, perhaps consider stopping parroting the point that they are arguing with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The posters who said they dont judge by sexuality werent technically wrong by definition, but their phrasing could be better. I, personally, didnt said "I dont care" in regards to Nassib- but I understood the difference in what that phrase could mean. 3. The anger in this thread by people proposing better communication is annoying and should lead to self reflection. What they are doing is labeling and bullying others whom share in similar beliefs. It's absolutely wild that you can't see how you should actually be directing point 3 at the people you are mentioning in point 2. Somehow it's super important for you to only worry about intent for group 2 and excuse their anger as a righteous response to being called out, but judge group 3 based not on intent, but on the environment they foster and the fact that they're being upset about being marginalized. Our entire point about group 2 is the literal thing you're complaining about in group 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Nix Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 Crazy some of things said in here about other posters that are being left alone. But I guess that doesn’t surprise me in today’s day and age where tolerance only exists when you agree with the mob. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I conceded the one point about phraseology a long time ago. You keep acting like I am doing something I am not. Leave me alone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To my knowledge not a single person has been banned or given a warning for content they posted in this thread, including people with some absolutely atrocious takes. Isnt this a perfect example of the incorrectly applied “free speech” so many folks who aren’t apart of said mob seem to want? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im curious as to who (or what?) constitutes the mob? I get the "mob" is directly tied to the participants - but in this context, I would like your perspective.

Unless I missed it I don't think Matts is judging the marginalized group. I think he's judging folks who in his view are overzealously white-knighting for that group in a way that's actually counter productive to the cause and only serves to make them feel better about themselves while alienating other people with similarly good intentions. I have too much of a life to dig into the specifics here but there's a difference. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
