Anyone who combs through that comment chain will see how you've been aggressively attacking me for simply disagreeing with your premise. Please broadcast me some more.

If we reductify things to stupidity, more and more people stop understanding the actual problems and start thinking it's just because people are dumb. When truthfully, many aren't dumb at all. Not sure how else I can say it, but I hope that helps.

I dont believe this is intentional or malicious. it's just a product of sensationalised media in extremely contentious times. As for my connections: I'm saying calling something a product of stupidity throws the baby out with the bathwater.

So, when I refer to buzzwords, I mean "woke, DEI, colonizer, nazi, fascist." Even in cases where the terms applies well, it misses the meat of the issue, and instead of addressing the issue people harkon to hating on them for the term they've been asigned.

I don't believe I applied any malicious intention. Saying a phrasing is bad and misguided is not the same as saying a person is bad. So, no. I'm also not really sure where you think I've applied that here.
I think many on the left rally to the wrong points, and it shoots the left in the foot.

You can think it's contrarian, I think it's important.

I just believe in curbing reductive language. Its more dangerous than the malicious actions they pretend to attack. If you indervalue what a bad thing is, you risk circumventing the means to destroy said bad thing by underestimating the issue at hand.

It is better, but calling colonizer brain a lead into stupidity is reductive and doesn't help solve the incingruence in thought. That's my point. Highly intelligent people can still engage in tribalism. The issue with framing it as stupidity is its counterproductive to improvement.

I'm no fan of colonialisms impact on a vast majority of the colonized, but I'm pretty tired of people misusing stuff for political points. That's why we are in this mess to begin with.

Colonialism has nothing to do with intelligence. This is the issue with people who use these random buzz words. They throw them around to get political points despite not having any actual merit to what they're saying.
Tribalism is inherent and isn't contingent on intellectual stunting.

The funny thing is that free speech is actually about being allowed to disagree and challenge a governing body without legal reprimand. This narrative that it means you can lie and hate with impunity is not in the spirit of the concept at all.

I wouldn't go that far. It's not bigotry to feel threatened by someone refusing to show support for you. While i understand the need to respect disagreement, it's a very fine line between disagreement and bigotry.

My bad, i see it. I did say hate- but it was in reference to her saying he should be fired sinply for not wanting to wear LGBT support jacket. That is, in my eyes, hateful. As removing someone's livelihood is pretty extreme.

Was this a reply to me? I never mentioned hate either.

Except not really, if we held LGBT people to this same standard you expect religious people- we would still be shunned and under heel. Mutual respect in disagreement is a huge part of social progress, as it allows disagreement and future understandings that we can coexist with differences.

Let me put it in an alternative way:
Technically speaking, supporting trans and gay people is an act of faith.
People are trusting we are who we say we are for our own reasons and that they won't essentially burn in hell for supporting us. Faith is inherent in a lot of things, especially social.

That's just your opinion. Sadly, opinions aren't facts.
Im agnostistic and anti-religion. But just like I expect respect from people who disagree with me, I respect those I disagree with as well.

There was nothing in that article that points to bigotry. His beliefs dont align with supporting LGBT. That isn't bigoted because, to him, his faith might be the reasonable framework. It becomes bigotry when he starts actively discriminating against or acting hostile toward LGBT people.

I understand the sentiment. Truly, I do. But being intolerant is also different from not agreeing or believing in something. I'm gay and fem, so I, of course, advocate for support for LGBT in sports, but it's equally intolerant to hate people for not 100% aligning with your values.

You're right, I am!
However, what is more funny is people supporting a fraud and felon who routinely helps the top 1% over the other 99% and thinks he works for them.
It's absolutely hilarious!
