        If your hill to die on is calling other people gay, maybe this isn’t the place for you. That’s all I was saying.

        We’ve got a pretty large LGBTQ+ user base here. Homophobia isn’t funny no matter how rational and logical your other topics of conversation were there.

            You’re being fucking annoying and a scold. And, I’m just being honest with how that makes me feel about you.

            Rude.

            You know what does help them? Working together. Collaborating. The free exchange of ideas. Sharing a laugh or an experience. Bitching about life and dating your shitty fucking job together.

            Calling them gay helps them apparently /s

            Your account is hours old and you really think coming in here and scolding all of us for being anti-homophobes and anti-edgelords is the move?

                You’re getting this upset over the smallest pushback on using “gay” as an insult. Interesting.

                    Yeah when you say out loud in a room full of strangers that you want to be able to call people “gay” because it’s funny, you’re gonna get a reaction.

            So, before you run your mouth any more, you should know that lemmy is a pretty small population and proudly obnoxious people may not be banned, but they sure as hell can be put on a lot of people’s personal blocklists.
