I want a society where this kind of backwards, reductive and downright hateful notions, passed as "free speech", "politics" or just "speaking my mind, bro" have no place.
And i do want (and in some cases expect) organizations to support that kind of society and show the door to people holding these views.
- dingo_bat 9y agoI think it's you who is being "hateful". And I'm scared that I'll be persecuted for my views and denied from participating in something I'm good at and enjoy, probably by somebody who thinks like you.

- croon 9y agoA community disenfranchising people based on non-chosen traits. != A community ejecting someone for supporting a movement towards communities disenfranchising people based on non-chosen traits. I'm consistently amazed by people arguing that someone wanting to exclude all left-handed people or glass-wearing people is the same as an organisation booting someone for holding these backwards, bigoted, frankly despicable ideas. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradox_of_tolerance https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradox_of_tolerance > Unlimited tolerance must lead to the disappearance of tolerance. If we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society against the onslaught of the intolerant, then the tolerant will be destroyed, and tolerance with them.
