Fair point, the OP is a bit over the top. I agree, It's not all religions.

I can point to multiple denominations of religious people that literally say that being gay or trans is forbidden, yet I can not find one Atheistic group that does the same. To act like religion doesn't do it's part in perpetuating this kind of hate is foolish.

I'm not saying all religion is bad or worthless or anything, just that it definitely contributes to this problem. I'm also not saying that all religions are the same, its mostly just the Abrahamic ones that seem to perpetuate the hate more than others.

They exist, but let's not act like religion isn't playing a huge role in the perpetuation of trans hate. If a person says that they dislike trans people, 9/10 times they are going to be religious. A lot of other cases will stem from a person coming from a religious family, or culture, if they aren't religious themselves.

It's not a requirement to hate gay and trans people to be an atheist, but it is a requirement to at least act like you do to be a member of many different religious denominations.

I have read about them, but the crossover between people who voted for Trump and AOC is so small, though. Its nowhere close to the total 71 million who voted for Trump.

Neutral onlooker and cis male here.

I think it's the "boo-hoo poor me I'm a man" sentiment that I initially felt reading that, even as a man.

I felt the same way. Ok, yea we have the disadvantage of being seen as the bigger threat by other males? Because we typically are? Because of some of the many advantages we have as men?

It feels weird to even call this a disadvantage, because it comes from having a bunch of advantages, if that makes any sense. We wouldn't have a disadvantage here if we didn't have natural advantages, in the first place.

Besides, this particular situation didn't have as much to do with his gender disadvantage as his racial disadvantage, anyways. It was all exacerbated by the disadvantage of the cop having no discernible brain cells.

Maybe a percentage of those votes were because of this, but you can't actually believe that 71 million people voted for him because he somehow represents the working class better than the dems would. The vast majority people who were protesting the dems not representing the working class, did so by not voting or voting 3rd party, not by voting for Trump.

99 percent of those people voted for Trump because of 3 reasons: Racism, Misogyny, or ignorance. There is a fourth group of rich voters who voted for him to line their pockets, but they are a miniscule portion of his votes. This fourth group mostly just invests money to encourage the racist, misogynistic, and ignorant ones to go vote.

Nazism and promotion of terrorism are explicitly illegal in some places, while death threats are not explicitly illegal everywhere. So does your opinion on these flip flop depending on where you live?

How about grow a spine and get some morals of your own? Ones that are not dependent on whatever is legal where you are currently located.

If nazism and promotion of terrorism are fine with you, I don't think you are going to find very many friends here.

I was going to add, as a user of both Steam and YouTube, I have seen far worse stuff in YouTube comments than I ever have on a Steam forum.

I think part of this comes down to the fact that disgusting, hateful comments will pop up on almost any YouTube video in the comment section, but you actually have to navigate to Steam forums with this content.

So, YouTube comments are thrown in your face and hard to not see, as they are right below the video, but Steam forum comments are at least hidden behind a few layers of clicks.

I agree that singling out Steam as if it's the main problem, isn't going to fix anything, at all.

The Comstock Act was created by a right wing Christian puritan, and has been fought against by leftists, and supported by conservatives, throughout it's history. But commies are to blame, sure.

It was. If you go through the OP thread, one of the responses is a picture of the dialog window that this user clicked through saying, "these changes will be IRREVERSIBLE".

The OP was just playing with a new kind of fire (VSCodes Git/source control panel) that they didn't understand, and they got burned.

We all gotta get burnt at least once, but it normally turns us into better devs in the end. I would bet money that this person uses source control now, as long as they are still coding.

Ooh good idea. While were at it, why not train some Jai Alai players to be grenadiers.

The person who told you that has an ugly personality.
