Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.

Why can’t a civil discourse be had without name calling?

Pretty sure they're either a troll or wildly ignorant. Either way, it's probably safe to just ignore them.

I'm actually very dumb and ignorant. Apologies.

However, civil discourse can be done with vulgarity. Just stop being a pearl-clutching limp-wrist self-censoring sycophant.

Limp-wrist? So gay right? That's where that term comes from, isnt it? So explain to me how, where someone likes to stick their dick has to do with their opinion of firearms?

There's a "block user" feature in Lemmy. It's useful in situations like these. Some people never learn the limits of vulgarity.

Oh shit no, I always attributed it to weak people, not LGBTQIA people. Forgive the ignorance.

Point still stands, weak people will vote against their own interests in the guise of a safe society and then get steam rolled by another society less interested in safety.
