The overt racism and other hate speech is a bit much

[Ekco]

i could start laughing about the right larping and the commies actually doing shit but i don't want my trolling to be taken as promoting violence by making fun of them.

just vote, and let off steam on the elf fourms, okay?

also, ya'll seem big mad today. consider shrooms.

The commies from the bible belt and the evangelicals from the bible belt one only one thing: to ban books and words

"Retard" is just the right tool for the job sometimes. I'd never call an actual mentally handicapped person a retard, because like all things context is vital and I have no desire to be cruel to anyone.

Also I really dont see much overt racism or "hate speech" anywhere on this forum, it's more likely that people's personal definitions of those terms has expanded to the point that nearly anything could fall into those categories.

For example I personally think it is unspeakably wrong to put kids on puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones, which carry life long risks that they can't possibly understand or consent to. That seems like a perfectly common sense opinion to me, but is considered hate speech in certain western countries.

I think of it as like seeing your nose without a mirror. Your brain normally omits it from your field of view, but if you think about it for a moment there it is.

You claim racism no longer exists in America, the whitest guy opinion of white guy opinions. So I can see how right-wing capitalist media has conditioned you not to see the nose

"Retard" used to be the politically correct term to use.

Now it's edgy.

See you in 10 years when 'medically slow individual' gets you banned from Facebook.

Used to be the normal term. It was not offensive, it was just the term used.
