Why is it hard for you to believe? If someone is telling you that the language youβre using is harmful, is your reaction really to say, basically, that you donβt care and youβre going to continue using it?
That's exactly the mentality they have.
Any thought that goes contrary to them being perfect turns them into petulant brats that allow them to justify having a hissy fit against the left.
I just donβt get it. If someone tells me that a word or phrase Iβm using is offensive, Iβm going to apologize and stop using it. Why is this so hard? Why would people double down on wanting to offend others?
I find the word "ableist" offensive. Also the words, "it" and "this".
This is a shitty take. Have more respect instead of trying to dismiss people with shitty quips.
No, it's not. You have decided that we aren't allowed to use word that you find offensive but that you don't have to not use words that we find offensive. You're a sanctimonious navel gazer. We're going to ignore you now.
You sure????
Yes.
I ask you read my post, because you incorrectly assumed my position just because I told you to behave better.
I ignored your request because I don't give a fuck what you think.
Damn, so, you only care about what you think, and don't care about what other people think...
Jesu, gods, do you ever look like an entitled twat with that opinion.
I believe that I've put forward my own desire for understanding, as well as my own perspective to try and be understood. If you do not wish to achieve understanding, or to help me understand you, then there's no discussion to be had. All you're doing is hurling insults.
So you're openly a bigot, really something to be proud of. ππ
You're a sanctimonious child.
How many fucking accounts do you have that I need to block.
This one?
I don't care if you block me. Just do it and shut up.
