Second, it says that he would view his son is a lesser light.. that is wrong IMO. Being gay is not immoral. You may be right on the first point but you're making an assumption on then second. Correct, being gay isn't immoral. Quote

Yes, not solely because it hurts people's feelings, but also because it is purely negative. There is no upside. It's not meant to be a helpful hard truth. It's cruel for the sake of being cruel about an attribute which cannot even be controlled or changed. Much like denigrating people because of skin color. Quote

It's how a society enforces decent behavior. -So if I date a woman, and find out her body count is 170 men, and am disgusted. Is that disgust justified? Plot twist. Her fetish is men fertilizing the field, so to speak. She reassures me she is on the pill, at seeing my horrified look. The look is more at her being a walking petri dish, and thankful we didn't kiss. She accuses me of slut shaming her. -An airline charges a 450lb woman two tickets as she can't fit in her seat. She posts online, as is social influencer, telling kids the benefits of obesity and how beautiful it now is. People tell her to lose weight. She accuses them of fat shaming her. -A trans woman who is 56 wants to shower at her niece's swimming pool. In the shower are women and children. She disrobes, exposing a penis and testicles, along with a hairy and quite masculine, chest. She isn't passable. Several women file a formal complaint. She accuses them of being transphobic, and tries to get them doxxed and humiliated. Who sets the standard? How are any of the above situations decent? Because someone was offended?

How is a fear of speaking freely, freedom? 3 hours ago, Hodad said: I have no idea who Sean Strickland is outside the context of this conversation, but saying that having a gay son is failing as a man is a truly, awful, horrible thing to say. You have never said something horrible in your life? Politically incorrect? I joked about hiring a hit man would have been cheaper than divorce with my ex wife to my current one. I knew she was marriage material, when she countered with something darker. Horrible thing to say. Okay, and? My ex wife was a horrible person. Put me through hell. I can't joke about putting poison in her food and burrying her lifeless body next to my dog in the backyard? Using popsicle sticks to make a cross as its cheaper? Is my ex wife still alive? So what's the issue? I don't have a dog. It's a joke. It was in the context of joking. If you don't approve the joke, marry her for 2 years and come tell me you don't have a hitman or two on speed dial. People could shame me all they want. It won't affect me any, nor would affect Strickland am sure. Sorry, but brittle feelings being hurt, is a pretty low standard to set. Quote

It won't affect me any, nor would affect Strickland am sure. Sorry, but brittle feelings being hurt, is a pretty low standard to set. 1. Social standards change all the time. There is no bright line. Shame is the mechanism of enforcement. If you take up two seats, pay for two tickets. Fair is fair. And there are plenty of emotionally healthy ways to opt out of your relationship with another person for any number of reasons, including the number of partners. 2. Some speech may merit legal action (government) but most does not. Again, you can think of obvious examples that constitute threats or incitement of violence. 3. Hating the individual who is your ex-wife is just that. It's not hate speech to hate the person who has done things to you. It's personal dynamics. You're not terrorizing a marginalized group. I can think of a few horrible-ish things I said as a kid. I grew up. I was a pretty good kid with decent parents who didn't preach hate, so nothing truly awful, but some things I'm ashamed of in retrospect and wouldn't want publicized now. But that's the difference, isn't it. I grew up. I learned right and wrong. I learned the power of words and I learned that casually hurting people is not smart or funny or hip or cool. It's just cruel. Strickland should hear the criticism and grow from it. Chances are, at his age, it's not a lack of knowledge, but a deliberate choice. And in that case people who look up to him should get the message that he's flawed and wrong and perhaps not worthy of their admiration. That's the purpose of shaming. 1 Quote

Even dumb people understand that one can earnestly and actively support causes without wanting to live them, or without it even being practical to live them. "You support Doctors Without Borders? Where's your medical license and why aren't you practicing orthopedics in Uganda? Hyuk hyuk." Yet you persist in repeating your trite line. It isn't clever. No one thinks it's clever. You, yourself, can't possibly imagine it's clever, incisive or illuminating. You just repeat it to be a jackass. It's frustrating that people aren't smarter, and more frustrating when those who could be treasure more pleasure in playing dumb. There is a big difference. You may go to Ukraine and die for your ideals there, enroll now if you mean what you believe in. On the other hand, you are not qualified to be a doctor and will never be. In every war, there is a war mongerer like you, at the comfort of its mother's basement, calling for war... that others will fight for, while you're on your couch. You are an armchair general, a keyboard warrior, a chickenhawk. You would never, ever fight in real life, let it be in a war you so desire. I dare you to fight the same way and sacrifice your own life as much as you want others to do so in Ukraine for "freedom" as you said. 1 Quote

You're missing a key ingredient. Self-awareness. Without it, feedback is nothing more than a personal attack. Useless. Learning from bullying, is personal growth. Main reason why drug rehab requires a party that knows they have an issue. More importantly, knowing that they need to change, thus opening their mind to it. 8 hours ago, Hodad said: I really don't care about some meathead who gets paid to fight people, like we live in ancient Rome. Well, considering the UFC is a multi billion dollar corporation, we have millions of people who appreciate ancient Rome? Or, there is an insanely high skill level on display, considering the multiple disciplines one must master. Probably why so many UFC fighters have university and college education. 8 hours ago, Hodad said: If he learns, great. Learns what? That a male who wears a dress is now a woman? Highly doubt anyone with common sense would ever believe in any more than two genders. Only lesson there, is that being gay isn't weakness. There were two gay women who fought before his fight that put a chess match on display. He also clarified his point. He loves gay people. He hates trans ideology. 8 hours ago, Hodad said: If he refuses to learn and gets cancelled, great. Arena was sold out chanting f*** Trudeau.

Tons of bad behavior that goes unpunished. 21 Savage can shoot ops in videos, and refer to women as to the cavities he thinks they are. Plug drug dealing and killing people you don't like. Good. But if he made a transphobic comment. WTF. Too far! Its precisely people like you, who are responsible for the social decay in the west. Being a stand up man is no longer in vogue. Quote

Guest Posted January 23, 2024 Report Posted January 23, 2024 3 hours ago, Nationalist said: white skin is sub-humxn This is why the media gets ridiculed, and why so many no longer trust them with information. If you call her out, they point to the issues facing black communities. She's just bringing attention to it, and is "punching up". But if you raise the issue about topics that are "unnacceptable views" then you are silenced and canceled. How is hate speech and violence unnacceptable, but fine if they do it? I mean, she literally posted about struggling not to kill white people. Nobody within her movement or many in the media bat an eyelid. Same people feel shaming sets "good" standards. Reverse racism is still racism. Bullying by "punching up", is like calling a bun a "man bun" like that makes it any more masculine. Its no different than Bullying and racism. Quote
