Mind having own take?

I thought we were talking about cake?

Would you say it’s as bad as Pelagosphobia or being intimidated by masculine women?

Holystyle-drakthul · October 17, 2021, 2:20pm

Kleia is good, Pelagos is…

Ok, so I’m someone who can’t grow a proper moustache. I want all moustaches removed from the game because they offend me. Human rights.

I’m also someone who doesn’t have a sense of humour. I want all jokes removed from the game because they offend me. Human rights.

I’m also someone who was born with 3 toes on one foot instead of 5. I want all races that have more than 3 toes, to be changed to only have 3 toes. Because it offends me. Human rights.

Etc.
It’s an extremely slippery slope if stuff like this is allowed to happen. That is my point.
Anyone can be offended by anything. Being offended is subjective. You can’t cater to that. It’s wrong.

And that doesn’t mean I think it’s okay for hate crimes to happen against trans people, for people spewing absolute hatred against them etc. Those are things for which we have LAWS. Comedy is NOT those things.

Kleia’s great

Holystyle-drakthul · October 17, 2021, 2:25pm

That panda is on same mentally ill level as two elfs and squid.

@mods Unflag my post has most likes in this nonsensical thread.

So now you are questioning my sexuality?

Dear God you really are a neanderthal, I have already stated I am out and proud

Idiot.

I would like to politely disagree on this. And I have a reason that is valid, at least to me. I have always thought that comedy that is cruel and unkind towards those that cannot speak up for themselves is not really nice at all.

And not all people can speak up and defend themselves, as a nurse I have witnessed patients in a very delicate state who have been the source of comedy and unkind jokes. And it breaks my heart.

Nindoriel-eredar · October 17, 2021, 3:17pm

What does that have to do with trans right?

Daestra-turalyon · October 17, 2021, 5:00pm

Transgender’s are normal people .

Eaelen-silvermoon · October 17, 2021, 5:02pm

I agree, but we are ALL normal people!

Drae-hellscream · October 17, 2021, 5:04pm

You say that, but as Holystyle has pointed out, there’s a squid on your face.

Eaelen-silvermoon · October 17, 2021, 5:05pm

Trust me that’s to stop all others feeling insecure and jealous of my looks!

Drae-hellscream · October 17, 2021, 5:06pm

That’s actually very nice of you. You’re nice.

Eaelen-silvermoon · October 17, 2021, 5:06pm

Yes I know

(cheques in the post)

Kretías-tarren-mill · October 17, 2021, 5:08pm

Not what he meant. However the term normal in his example is up for debate. Doesnt mean i agree with everything holystyle says (obviously not since i debated earlier already)

Holystyle-drakthul · October 17, 2021, 5:43pm

You can call it i RP hatred in World of Warcraft .

Tah-earthen-ring · October 17, 2021, 5:44pm

And who can’t speak up?
Toddlers?! Ok, stop making cruel and unkind jokes about toddlers.
Oh wait… They have parents who are responsible for them and will do the talking for them.

That’s still no reason. If we have to adjust to the lowest common denominator on an emotional level, we’ll all be crying all day every day feeling so sorry for any- and everything. Society would collapse.
