Based on the fact that you're laying down these judgments without knowing or caring what you're talking about, why would we waste the time? It's really unlikely to be your kind of thing.

Can you read?

Can you seriously not read? Is that the deal?

Calling someone out for their bigotry is only the same thing as hate speech when you agree with the bigotry. False equivalencies don't mean shit. But looking at your past comments, I'm fairly certain we don't speak the same language, so whatever. Nice privilege check, asshole.

Eh, privilege comes with the territory. I don't think he's an asshole, I just think it's easy to make these kinds of calls from the cheap seats. When you're used to being told you're right about everything, you don't really want to hear from anybody else. I wish him luck, and don't regret trying to get beyond it with…

I tend to agree, on both points. I think maybe we forget that the internet is not the world — that for most industries and technologies, maybe everywhere but the internet actually, erect penises are the last pornographic thing.

Okay, I'm done. You really can't hear yourself, and the lectures are just getting more and more embarrassing and sad.

I suppose there's a possibility that a person with a TV for a face projecting images of a man sucking another man's penis until he blows a load on his face could be a very deep metaphor for something, and I share your high opinion of the series and the author, but — this didn't happen in a vacuum. There was going to…

Interesting to you. This is inconsequential to you. You are not wrong, this kind of arbitrary shit happens all the time and I agree with you on that. What makes this — this specific article that you clicked on to inform us that you are bored by gay stuff — special is the fact of the double standard itself. Not some…

Here's the thing, though: We're not "missing your point," we're not having trouble understanding the point you're trying to make, we are telling you that you are wrong, and in a way that makes you look like a jerk. It's really not complicated.

In other words, "Shut up about gay stuff! I'm bored of hearing about it!"

...Except you don't know what you're talking about. Not that being a dick really would help your case, but in fact there have been plenty of images every bit as graphic as this one. What the hell is wrong with you?

It is a little ironic considering how silly the images are. But the greater point is still a pretty big deal.

Is it your policy to avoid reading articles you've decided to comment on, or just the ones where doing so makes look like an ignorant bigot?

As a gay man, it pains me to agree: This is a silly exercise in envelope-pushing and doesn't further the story. However, that's still not the point.

Exactly. I've never understood why this is something to scream about.

100% agree.

Ea is the worst company in the world the same way Conan O'Brien could be the next President of the United States, bacon is a food group, Arrested Development renders the ratings system irrelevant: Internet dorks en masse misrepresenting actual public opinion. I've never understood this need, any more than I understand…
