@KarenSeeley68 @nema Huh. Kinda seems like you are, in fact, THAT Karen.

@steinkobbe I always forget people in other countries can also be like this. I once had a Brazilian colleague explain that Mt Shasta is a giant crystal inhabited by the spirits of the dead and, ngl, I had a hard time working with him after that.

@BenjaminMillar @THAT_Reuben @karaschlegl Basically you're all standing around making fun of poor people, so, bully for you.

@BenjaminMillar @THAT_Reuben @karaschlegl This whole thread is bs. I'm an American and we don't eat that crap. A lot of this stuff is eaten by very poor or very rural people who lack access to quality food.

That is also a problem, but a very different one.

@hypersonicorn Are you on progesterone? If not, bring it up.

@EliasTheGrouch @mikerugnetta @AkilahObviously Oh wow, you can steal lines from Team America. Thank god 2004 is around for you to crib from or whatever would you do?

I'm going to block you, because I assume having a sesame street character for a picture means you're trying to lure in young children for illicit reasons.

@EliasTheGrouch @mikerugnetta @AkilahObviously Globetrotting. So the issue isn't speech for you, it's the definition of transphobia? Changing the definition of transphobia doesnt makes validate your argument. By any definition he is punching down on marginalized people, whether we call it transphobia or just being a dick.

@EliasTheGrouch @mikerugnetta @AkilahObviously Defending him isn't protecting freeze peach. All it's doing is silencing the voices of people who have to live in fear of violence. You think it's really important for millionaires to be able to do hateful comedy, but will happily shout down those of us who speak against it.

[A Study in Pink ⚧ 🏳️‍⚧️ @softriver]

@EliasTheGrouch @mikerugnetta @AkilahObviously You think that people being upset at transphobic comedy is censorship, when the guy doing that comedy has millions of dollars and is on a platform with access to millions?

Like Ricky Gervais, Chapelle is monetizing punching down against a marginalized group. That's it.

[A Study in Pink ⚧ 🏳️‍⚧️ @softriver]

@EliasTheGrouch @mikerugnetta @AkilahObviously It takes a lot of denial to insist that we live in a world where hate speech doesn't lead to violence. Study after study show that increases in hateful rhetoric lead to increases in hate crimes.

Just admit that you don't care about the people being hurt, and go on with your day.

@AkilahObviously North Germanic Food is the best food in the world said no one else, ever, in the history of either food or the world.

@kylekpate I don't know. I recall something in Exploratory Data Analysis where they said that standard rules of business don't apply if you are interfacing with the Etherium blockchain via a js API. If they mention the blockchain then it's gotta be legit, right?

@itssamanthaaaa_ My gender dysphoria is the best way for us to get the ball rolling.

@ErinInTheMorn But yeah, don't tell me I am brave for existing and walking around in the world, please.

[A Study in Pink ⚧ 🏳️‍⚧️ @softriver]

@ErinInTheMorn Exception: Compliment my fashion all you want. You will very likely end up in a discussion about where I got my purse and how wonderful certain shops are.

Corollary: Not if I am wearing sweatpants, logo tee, and sneakers in a convenience store at 1 a.m.

@RaxKingIsDead For real though, Alec Baldwin had legit smoulder in that Prelude to a Kiss movie and when they got married I thought it was like true love and shit but then there was the old man it was like "this is messed up" but you gotta be harder than that to watch old movies on Netflix tho.

@BlacknLux All I can think of is what if one of these men went into the restroom and saw a trans woman there.

@notCursedE "My position is that they should all be rounded up, put on display, and pelted with rotten fruit," said the comedian, "but I'm open to discussion about the type of fruit."

He then went on to explain how his support of tomatoes was a clear indication of his good intentions.
