This argument is surprisingly similar to one a user called nettygay5 had the other day:

one thing even bisexuals (bisexual men who like to use that word and ftm straight women) say is that "well, i've been called this word too! YES...because they are calling you GAY..a homosexual. Thats the last word gay people hear when theyre murdered. And when they try to blur the lines with "maybe in theory some bi guys are targets of hate crimes!"..no, theyre not because theyre too busy eating popcorn watching the hate crimes occur in their heterosexual relationships. this whole "i've been called it too" is complete and total bullshit. More straight guys have been called that word than anybody. does that mean straight men get to use that word and "reclaim it"? What a bunch of insincere assholes. White women were called N-word lovers. Does that mean they get to run around and use that word? No.

I think you two have quite a lot in common.

I think he tried to type a bit differently this time around, I saw a user say he would get away with creating new users if he changed the way he typed and he took it to heart

Yeah, I've been calling him out for a bit, and I mentioned he should stop with his all caps, which was a mistake on my part. He thinks what he's writing is more reasonable now, but it really isn't. It always becomes 'lesbians and bisexuals are the devil, black gay men are terrible too'.

it's simply JARRING. grow up. are you pretending to be an aristocrat's wife at the palace of versaille who discovered some scandal of intrigue? we're on an anonymous internet forum where our next door neighbours are sociopaths calling for the death of jews every 5 seconds lol. what you consider jarring are the upvotes. i'm the most articulate and incisive one here.

we're not here to create some conspiracy of silence and not mention where lots of these problems come from. Then we'd be no different than our neighbours on here blaming phantoms, the illuminati or the jews.
