I know! What kind of country have we become when being openly homophobic just results in a bunch of people calling you a homophobe rather than patiently understanding that you just want to look concerned to cover your homophobia?

Let's imagine that you're in a locker room with a gay guy. He thinks you're attractive but he knows you're not gay. He will not hit on you, look at you, or make any advances towards you because gay guys want other gay guys. Being gay is not contagious.

Oh, for fucks sake. You had to make it about "jealousy", didn't you? Reread your last line, the one about how areas of america have become too expensive for someone earning a median income to survive in. Now join me on a little journey.

I am PRO internet-trolling of bigot assholes. And yes, his "freedom of speech" deserves every consequence it gets.

If they're not ready for him, seems to me like that should be their problem, not his.

Show me one MRA blog or website that isn't full of psychos. There are tons of feminist websites that are evenhanded and fair, and demand that all people regardless of gender be treated equally.

Try caregiving for a loved one (at the age of 24 - it's so fun!!) who also has dementia, cancer & Parkinson's & then come & lecture me on 'throwing them in a home.' This BS stigma about a loved one in a home is truly the worst. Perhaps take it case by case instead of a massive generalization.

Hey wait, shouldn't the snorer get kicked out of bed, rather than the victim?

Ur doin it rong.

You get hurricanes that combine with nor-easters too?

Perhaps I have approached this poorly.

They're stupid because they're using tried and true methods to fight snow and because of the volume of snow their supply is getting low? Yeah, that's pretty, uh...dumb of them to...um, use salt... I guess.

Does another human's nutrition depend on your ability to be able to pee into a jar? That's fascinating, can you tell me more about that?

Wow, one whole road was closed down in the middle of a foot of snow? One whole road?!?! Holy crap, that's just as embarrassing as an entire region falling into chaos in 2" of snow.

Yeah, I dunno, here in Ohio we got six inches covered in a layer of ice and I still didn't see people abandoning their vehicles en masse on the highway. Sooo...

Pissing in a jar is equivalent to feeding one's baby in your world?

Because people who are marginalized don't have the privilege of not having to worry about whether the insults that are thrown at them have to do with their sex/gender/race/disability/religion/etc

There's no "getting past" racial, gender, religious, and sexual orientation issues so long as those issues exist. You can't just ignore them and hope they go away. The only way to go about fighting them is to speak up when it's obvious someone's being racist/sexist/whateverreligiousist/etc. Calling a black guy a thug…

People called him a nigger. Because of his race. The media pointed out that racism.

I don't know if you're speaking about this particularly controversy but the media didn't make it one of those things. People were racist. Some overtly, others also overtly but thinking they were sly. They weren't just assholes. They were racist assholes.

because people weren't calling him an asshole, they were calling him a nigger.
