Why do y'all respond to halfbaked bait as if it's your first day online? You're just bumping useless threads and feeding the ego of some sad weirdo when you try to argue with folks who make posts whining about "woke" or some junk like that. They don't care what you have to say in response to their bigotry, you're just helping them lay more eyes on it.

Just report it, ignore it, block them and let them live in their dingy little world all alone crying about women, or gays, or racial stats or whatever.

If you think those are problems, it's only because you're making them up by believing they are problems due to falsified data and toxic opinions that I'm sure you've learned from friends/family/church.

I don't even think you can explain why you think the way you think because you simply aren't self-aware enough.

The only reason you are seeing more LGBTQ stuff now is because the irrational hate for them has grown to the point where those in the LGBTQ have to speak up more than ever to drown people like you out.

A lot of traumatic things are going to have to happen to you before you'll be able to grow enough as a person to understand why you hate and care so much about people who differ slightly from you. People who are just trying to live their lives, and will IN NO WAY affect you on any level that is actually relevant.

It's a catch-all stand-in for 'person I don't like'. Just like how the far right uses 'snowflake' or 'cuck', and how idiots of all political persuasions use 'nazi'.

Eh, no. It's a real word with a real definition that has been around for a very long time.

I don't consider a troll any better than a bigot, tomato tomatoe to me. If they lash out in aimless hate it doesn't matter if in their mind it's a joke or not, because both categories will flip back and forth between acting as if they are genuine and joking to save face and continue the endless screaming.
But......

I mean.....

You realise you're doing that exact thing......

Right?

Wrapping it up in a "But I stand for what feels right" taco, doesn't change the underlining behaviour.

I am not lacking self awareness. This thread deserves deleting as much as all the other stray screaming. I have no doubt in my mind that the bulk of responses to this thread could only dream of being one hundredth as productive and serious as this one.
I'm just not spreading hate at the same time as derailing, and that's something that really can't be understated. Boiling it down to 'all positions are the same' does no one favors except the hateful.

Yes, it obviously is, but it is not being used in that way here or in the examples I mentioned. The people using it as a hostile pejorative don't care about what its definition is, only that it is a way of tarring people you don't like and shutting down debate.

well, true enough, you're not derailing things.

That they seem to use for anyone the has a different opinion. News flash disagreeing with someone’s political views doesn’t make them a racist or a homophobe it just makes them uninterested in your crazy views on society.

I suppose they're not derailing, no, but I would disagree with the notion that's they're not' spreading hate'. Lumping anyone with a possibly legitimate criticism in with literal bigots is fairly hateful.

It has pronouns, transgender characters, feminism, furry romances. There’s probably more but I’ve only just started the game.

Interesting. Thanks. Just saved me $80 CDN. Glad I looked at the discussion forum first.

I think anyone versed in basic 20th century history see the leftist playbook for what it is, an attempt to fracture a united people by claiming delusional moral high ground while relying on the very same racism and segregation they swear to oppose.

It's literally authoritarianism 101. Anyone with half a brain would know that these "enlightened wokesters" are really just the byproduct of useful idiots who ironically suffer their condition from a lack of breadth and understanding of human history.

Honestly, the best thing you can do is mock them and their ideas and have a good grasp on world events. Pick a contradiction in their world view (there are many, literally just pick any topic they talk on) and demolish them with actual knowledge.

Also, ironically, these useful idiots are dying to prove their moral superiority to others because rather than their interest being on self improvement, internally they seek to subjugate and control others by means of their rhetoric. In short, they're charlatans.
