@just_dave_tings @Ava_AM12ff As opposed to [gesticulates at literal fascism]?

[A Roaming Goliath @ARoamingGoliath]

@just_dave_tings @Ava_AM12ff He showed up at pride to recruit for a homophobic cult (who's testable truth claims have all been debunked).

They put stickers on his sign in protest.

Why is "don't be an asshole" seen as such an attack on the core foundation of who you are?

[A Roaming Goliath @ARoamingGoliath]

@just_dave_tings @Ava_AM12ff And I'm fully on board with people doing shitty things getting what they deserve. Humiliating bigots in public is a moral imperative.

Stop being such a fucking snowflake crybully. The world is not your safe space.

[A Roaming Goliath @ARoamingGoliath]

@just_dave_tings @Ava_AM12ff Again, I was in ministry. I'm more familiar with this mythology than you are.

How about you offer just one single shred of evidence? Literally one.

[A Roaming Goliath @ARoamingGoliath]

@just_dave_tings @Ava_AM12ff "Jesus loves you... DESPITE you being queer." That's his message. It's a threat. "My god loves you, and he will torture you if you don't live him back."

Prove your god is as real as metabolism, and maybe we can argue. But we're celebrating life and you're bitching about lore.

[A Roaming Goliath @ARoamingGoliath]

@just_dave_tings @Ava_AM12ff My point is that I don't give two shits what his intent was. It was received as hostility, and he did nothing to disabuse that notion. Just another hateful Christian there to ruin the fun.

[A Roaming Goliath @ARoamingGoliath]

@just_dave_tings @Ava_AM12ff How? Let's be specific.

That's a valid metaphor, btw. Most queer people in the west have been victimized by Christians at some point. Is it loving to share the light of Allah during a church service? You ok with that?

[A Roaming Goliath @ARoamingGoliath]

@just_dave_tings @Ava_AM12ff Bro. I was in ministry. I've been on literal missions trips in Guatemala and Northern Mexico. I know full well what missions entail and the motivation behind them.

I was in a demonstrably false cult, colonizing minds. An asshole. I know this kid because I've been this kid.

[A Roaming Goliath @ARoamingGoliath]

@just_dave_tings @Ava_AM12ff So you're just going to pretend that little twerp wasn't there to provoke a reaction.

He just set up a camera on him to capture how loving her was there to be.

Were your parents brother and sister? Or just cousins?

[A Roaming Goliath @ARoamingGoliath]

@sola_chad Because they didn't mention it THE FUCKING BIBLE WHERE THE TERM COMES FROM.

[A Roaming Goliath @ARoamingGoliath]

@just_dave_tings @Ava_AM12ff So... zero thoughts on Popper, then?

Do you wanna clutch those pearls you asked me to blast on you, or do you want to address the very substantive point I just offered?

[A Roaming Goliath @ARoamingGoliath]

@just_dave_tings @Ava_AM12ff You wanna learn or you wanna be a bossy bottom?

[A Roaming Goliath @ARoamingGoliath]

@just_dave_tings @Ava_AM12ff Look up "the paradox of tolerance". Karl Popper's concept.

If you want a tolerant society, you can't tolerate intolerance. You cut it out like the cancer it is. Otherwise the intolerant end up sabotaging the whole thing to get power.

[A Roaming Goliath @ARoamingGoliath]

@just_dave_tings @Ava_AM12ff And your demgod's birthday means fuck-all to everyone outside your cult.

I find Christianity repugnant. That doesn't mean Christians can't do their little festivals. Societies that can't accommodate difference are doomed to fail.

[A Roaming Goliath @ARoamingGoliath]

@Dan09419711 @SenMarkKelly But that fat pedophile's LOSING to Iran.

[A Roaming Goliath @ARoamingGoliath]

@scrfan007 Right... Because if there's one thing the US is known for, it's definitely a lack of gun violence.

[A Roaming Goliath @ARoamingGoliath]

@just_dave_tings @Ava_AM12ff I don't care for Christianity spending all of December celebrating their god's birth myth with constant songs and decor, but I fucking deal with it.

As long as there have been people there have been queer people. They have as much right to celebrate themselves as anyone else.

[A Roaming Goliath @ARoamingGoliath]

@just_dave_tings @Ava_AM12ff Proportionate response.

And you can think what you want. But when you go into the real world, you'll find that fags fight back. And I'll be right there with them.

[A Roaming Goliath @ARoamingGoliath]

@askaya The fact that you said "white people" instead of "Americans" should be a clue...
