Fun fact: The term “Stockholm Syndrome” was a term coined to silence a woman who criticized the bumbled police response that put her and other hostages in even more danger. She wasn’t enamored of her captors, but instead critical of the police.

I meant to say white supremacy, not white nationalism. But nationalism is a problem too.

This is a nation founded on the ideals of genocide, slavery, and white nationalism. No I do not like the US. I’d not trust anyone who does. The USA should be dissolved.

Well, this is not creepy or fashy at all

Oh I wouldn’t be the least bit surprised. My instance actually disables downvotes, so I can’t see that, but there are a lot of reddit transplants here (I’m one of them), and reddit’s takes on things like feminism and women are overall not … good.

It never went away in the first place

Yes, last I checked, one of their prime hate forums r/KotakuInAction was still active, and still filled with the most pathetic little insects seething about the fact that women and minorities exist in media. Gamergate has never really ended. Most people just stopped paying attention to these fools.

Unfortunately, that’s easy for me to say, since I’m not on the receiving end of their doxxing and death threats.

I haven’t had the best life, but I just can’t fathom being such a total loser that I’d ever get that worked up over something like video games.

A society based on mutual aid :3

The two cases when he was tried in court for allegedly abusing minors.

I don’t really know if he did it or not. So much conflicting information that I’m not sure we’ll ever know. There was definitely some confirmed questionable behavior on his part.

Do you specifically condemn the Pope for his use of slurs?

Also, not appreciating you downplaying the fact that the Catholic church clearly believes LGBTQIA+ is a sin. This is not allyship by any stretch of the imagination.

You know it’s real easy to judge others for the sins of their fathers. How far into your family history would we need to dig to judge you for the rape or murders your forebears likely committed?

Irrelevant. I’d condemn them. There’s never been an excuse for such behavior.

I’m only judging the church and it’s shitty pope based on their actual words and actions. They’re still an active hate group in 2024.

But as for actually judging people only based on what they say

How dare we judge someone based on [checks notes] the actual words. they say???

But let’s focus on the actual things the church believes for a moment. Certainly that’s better, right? Certainly they’re… hmmm… well, yikes!

But still this is the “good pope” right? So certainly he wouldn’t… oh fuck.

Well, turns out it’s fair after all to judge him as bring a confirmed queerphobe and the catholic church as a hate group.

So with this further context I repeat: do you condemn the pope’s repeated use of an actual homophobic slur? (Not that you should require this further context, since he has no excuse for using this term as someone outside the queer community.)

So you condemn the Pope’s repeated use of a homophobic slur?

Anyway, here’s you straight up refusing to understand the concept of white privilege:

My genuine reaction to everything you’ve said:

Have an extremely shitty day, and let’s not talk again. I have even less respect for you now that when we’ve started – pretty impressive tbh since I started at zero so – achievement unlocked??, and you’ve confirmed all my suspicions about you by admitting that you think casual queerphobia is okay and that we queers are just “making a big deal out of nothing.”

I can’t block your ass because I’m a mod, but I won’t be responding in any meaningful way going forward.

SHitty people all call their friends queerphobic slurs in both English and Spanish, I’ve seen it.

It doesn’t excuse it, and it doesn’t make their language and behavior less queerphobic. In fact, the fact that they use it so casually is just more evidence of how deeply entrenched queerphobia is, and the fact that they’re willing to continue to normalize this in society with such callous disgregard for us LGBTQIA+ people does not reflect well on their character.

Sounds to me like you just surround yourself with 4chan tier people. Yikes.

Anyone can easily determine it’s a slur. Pretty fuckin easy to verify that I’m right and you’re wrong.

Your opinion here is unimportant. You’re not in the community
