In 1985 you could say “homosexuality is a disease and all gay should be locked up” and you wouldn’t have to be too worried about your employment. Today you can say “I’m gay” and don’t have to worry about being fired for it. I like today’s freedom of expression better.

People like to bully on the outgroups, now as then. Same as ever.

  You do see the difference between saying gay people should die and being gay right? Lol

    Of course, I'm commenting that "<some outgroup> needs to DIE" is always bad.

      Nah, "all Nazis need to die" isn't so bad (with the conventional western definition of Nazis of course, not the one that is used by Russia today).

  I like to see it like we went from bulling minorities to shunning assholes. It’s a bit concerning that you don’t see the difference.
