Yeah, but that was just one episode, right? Oddly, they never reshot the early episode where a different actor played Jerry's dad.

You asked me for laws on the books oppressing straight white men. I asked the same of you for straight white women. I'm still waiting.

Your problem is with the people who voted for Trump— which included women, people of color and probably some smattering of gays—and Islamophobes—a group that also includes all the above.

Uh, no, the overwhelming majority did not. I'm not even sure the overwhelming number of white people who voted voted for Trump, but voter turnout across racial and gender lines is poor.

"They"? Like all of them as a collective, in unison? You have documentation on that? I had no idea only straight, white men voted for Trump and no straight, white men voted for Hillary. What are your sources?

You're referring to homophobes. They aren't all white and they aren't all male. You're targeting the wrong groups. Homophobes and bigots are your enemy. Not a gender or race.

Determining who has earned the right to express responses (emotional or not) in public forums is kinda fascist.

You apparently have very cliched views. I am far more clued into my sexual orientation than you could possibly be.

I think he painted them as aggressive antagonists, not whiners. How do you parse tone on the internet?

That's an assertion, not any conservative's self-definition. I don't see how it relates to my point—one issue does not define a person's political identity.

On the basis of what evidence. You're making an empty assertion, not proving a point.

I am a gay guy. You're assumptions demonstrate why your argument in invalid: you are indulging in cliches, and you know nothing of the people you're attributing characteristics to. You're stereotyping.

It isn't whining to point out mainstream cultural biases or mindsets that are unjust. That's a dumb, unilateral categorization on your part.

I really don't think he's making light of slavery in America. I think there's a long history in comedy of using even tragedy cavalierly in a comedy format, for slavery, the Holocaust, gays, women, that has nothing to do with supporting tragedy or intolerance. Theoretically in comedy, nothing is sacred. It was an…

Oh, I agree with all of this.

You're talking about terrorism, basically.

I think people get to say whatever they want, and I doubt you know Mahr well enough to evaluate his knowledge of the terror of slavery.

Opposing racial segregation relates to a purity test? I thought it was basic ethical behavior.

How do you determine "whining" in the context of a typed sentence where no emoticons are being used? The emotional timbre doesn't suggest whining to me. Or is your syllogism "A complaint I do not have sympathy for is whining. I have no sympathy for this group. Ergo, the complaints are mere whining"? Seems recklessly…

I think this is a very good insight. It expands my thinking. Thank you.
