You’re telling me a critic who’s called on to make a discerning value judgment… made a discerning value judgement?
Holy shit this is unfathomable.

You’re taking what is a very frank and common expression of feelings that a lot of people who grew up gay at that time (and multiple older gay men are telling you) had, and making a big snide show of not understanding or empathizing.
You’re a creep.

Accounts do not vary; you are simply not engaging in this discussion in good faith.

At some point Stephen Miller is going to be staring at criminal charges and someone will tell him “I mean, you did go out of your way to make the world worse for everyone for no reason.”

I once got into an argument with a conservative where my thesis was “republicans are opposed to solving problems, and one of their means to opposing solving problems is to deny the existence of said problems.”

I get the feeling there are a lot of games where the actual creativity and worldbuilding are great but the in-game loop and script are eh.
Like I started playing “Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn,” which is a gunpowder fantasy soulslike that has a very creative world, but… eh?

there are two wolves inside Hanania. one is a snob, the other a bigot. the fate of his soul depends on the snob defeating the bigot
The vibe I get from him is that he would like to be an intellectual (he is not successful) and is bothered by the awareness that his fellow conservatives are morons.

I think of far right types just genuinely don‘t understand or care what libs and normies actually believe (recall the number of people declaring amidst the USAID cuts that liberals don’t actually exist)

Yes, conservative grievances do tend to just bleed into each other, a sort of outrage free association.

No. The drag performer was just doing something nice for kids. The extremism was one-sided.

I’m not pretending a single thing, except perhaps that you believe anything you say.
Find me a public library in the United States that hosted a BDSM event along the lines of what you described.

The paragraph mentions cross-dressing because *some kinds* of crossdressing can figure into BDSM.
Can you cite a drag queen story event at a library you would classify as BDSM? Or did you just make up a stupid scenario unconnected to reality?

A “torture and whipping demo” would be a BDSM scenario.
A man in a costume reading The Rainbow Fish is not.

I don’t care if a con thinks it’s normal. That’s not the question at hand.
The question is “why is my rejection of their stupidity to be considered extreme?”

It‘s a fact. You’re claiming to be in the middle when you’re citing someone famous as a deeply evil bigot who likes inciting harassment campaigns against teachers and bomb threats against schools and hospitals.

Yeah, someone in a costume reading The Rainbow Fish is exactly the same as a bdsm cage.
Fucking stupid.

No, that probably wouldn’t be cleared by the local library hoard on account of it not meeting their standards.
For fuck’s sake, think for a second before bringing profoundly idiotic made-up scenarios. It’s embarassing.

You cited fucking Chaya Raichik.

So this was not something that happened at a drag queen story event. I don’t need to move goalposts as this did not hit my criteria.
also you’re citing radical right wing website American Greatness, which is itself citing the deranged hatemongering bitch Chaya Raichik.

It’s a public library. The process for events being scheduled is super transparent. They often have monthly calendars you can get at the front desk because they want patrons to know about community events. What are you talking about?
