Responses that completely destroy the original argument in a way that leaves little to no room for reply - a targeted, well-placed response to another person, organization, or group of people.
The following things are not grounds for murder:
- Personal appearance ("You're fat", "You're ugly")
- Posts with little-to-no context
- Posts based on a grammar/spelling error
- Dick jokes, "Yo mama", "No, you" type responses and other low effort insults
- "Your values are bad" without any logcal or factual ways of showing that they are wrong ("I believe in capitalism" - "Well, then you must be evil" or "Fuck you you ignorant asshole")
Rules:
- Be civil and remember the human. No name calling or insults. Swearing in general is fine, but not to insult someone else.
- Discussion is encouraged but arguments are not. Don’t be aggressive and don’t argue for arguments sake.
- No bigotry of any kind.
- Censor the person info of anyone not in the public eye.
- If you break the rules you’ll get one warning before you’re banned.
- Enjoy the community in the light hearted way it’s intended.

treat them equally? But you probably don't want to give menstrual items to a man
that's what I meant. You wouldn't give them to whoever not needed them. I called them man, you called them people without uterus. In other words, you don't want to treat all equally.
So you would give menstrual products to people with a uterus but don't say anything about not giving menstrual products to people without a uterus?
But would you? If you do not, wouldn't that make you treat people unequally, in some sense?
Treating someone equally is to give them equal value and respect as you'd give anyone else, it's to not devalue them based on gender, race, etc. It's the same as it's been since Dr. King talked about the content of someone's character instead of the color of their skin.
sure, no one is denying that. I was just jumping in on specifics of how that would look like, for example, when giving certain items.
