@TunaTornadoTV Play what you want, Bro. You will have more success from having a char you genuinely love than you will getting a fraction of a percentage on a dmg meter from a racial.
I rolled Troll Priest in vanilla, Troll Priest in Classic and you best believe I'm rolling Troll Priest again.
@RoseAJacob@turningmystile B. That's easy; the personal thoughts and feelings of another is NONE OF YOUR FUCKING BUISNESS, even if those thoughts and feelings are about your identity group.
It's that simple.
@RoseAJacob@turningmystile A. It can be heaps of things, but if a bunch of those things amount to "has thoughts and feelings that I don't like" then all you are doing is creating space for some forms of homophobia being ok in the eyes of a reasonable person.
@Oscar1051128@NormalGayPsych And calling people racist bigots won't stop a muslim majority rolling back gay rights that don't exsist in any muslim nation.
"OH SO ALL YOU WANT TO DO IS SAY SLURS AND HARASS PEOPLE???"
No, all I want to do is play games with my friends without having to constantly deal with petty irritants being turned into widespread social issues that demand ridiculous actions and changes because of an extreme niche of people who derive pleasure from managing not only their experience, but literally anyone else they are capable of forcing into it.
I want to be able to let loose in my recreational spaces and have personal conflicts be as complicated as deciding who I want to engage with and who I want to mute / block / add friend.
This culture of tattle-tale hall monitors that vindictively attack people under the guise of pushing back against 'toxicity' so they can get authority figures to persecute their enemies has to stop.
@RoseAJacob@turningmystile If you want to reduce homophobia to 'thinks gays are a bit icky' then homophobia becomes absolutely, 100% acceptable and defendable.
Hence my warning not to water down the meaning of the word.
@RoseAJacob@turningmystile Yes. I think it is perfectly fine to minimise, reject and ridicule attempts at thought policing, especially when retards try to compare those thoughts to actual homophobic violence as if these things are in ANY way comparable.
Tldr: Nazi thought police can get in the bin.
@judejon_@turningmystile This is the crux of the issue right here.
Trying to police what amounts to a feeling as if that is on the same level as outright homophobic violence is creepy and weird.
@RoseAJacob@turningmystile People can criticise whatever they like, but if you cry out "Hey, this guy thinks gays are a bit icky!" just don't be surprised when people go "Ok.. And?"
If I shouldn't be trying to minimalise a trivial issue, you probably shouldnt be trying to maximise it either
@Qi_ra997 As an Australian male, I literally don't know a single mate of mine (and myself) who haven't been straight-up grabbed by the cock n balls by a drunk lady at a bar.
But for some reason woman never seem concerned about this phenomenon
