People pick their fights, people have priorities which makes sense because if you try to fight all the battles you can’t win any.

Yup, exactly. I think this is important to consider, because we are NEVER going to be a "perfect" community and that's totally okay. I think we can talk about issues when they arise but it is highly unlikely that we could, for example, root out all disagreement here about slurs.

Someone here once observed that the only thing we all agree on here is that we need to drop the T from LGB. I think we vastly agree on many other things as well but the heterogeneity of perspectives on this sub is actually really huge (and I think that's cool!). Sometimes that means compromising.
