I can understand why all the other things would be listed here, and I would understand if sexuality in general was considered inappropriate for children, but why homosexuality in particular? This is strange to me.

The far-right is not the Democrats fault and I don’t know why you’re bragging about selling out your community.
it’s not the “far right” that’s the issue, it’s the fact that the far left is generating high amounts of animosity from anyone relatively centrist.
If you’re still bigoted towards gay people I don’t want you on our side tbh and if you’re now on the right I don’t think you were centrist in the first place. General “you,” of course.
I think people are really underestimating how bad some people are starting to feel about it. It’s constantly being talked about it the news in fairly negative circumstances. Constantly being shoved in peoples faces, “Pride Parades” where people are walking around almost, (and in many cases fully) nude in the middle of the day. Media constantly being changed (and often for the worse) to accommodate the inclusiveness etc.
a lot of people are fine with this, but even I as a man who likes men, think it’s absolutely disgusting to be walking down a public street with your dick and balls, or a woman’s crotch fully exposed. but being against this makes me a “heterosexual bigot” somehow.
People are doing so much to generate as much animosity as possible against, and I’m really starting to hate this term myself, LGBT folk. Folk who just want to mind their own business, aren’t allowed to anymore. and all of negative bullcrap, people ruining old media, walking down the streets naked, screaming at people for trying to mind their own buisness etc. all winds up getting tied to LGBT stuff.
This is what I mean when I have to tell people that I’m not one of “those gays” because I don’t think it’s right to do any of this garbage. And this garbage does make people hate the “LGBT” community.
The news is the only thing that cares. I’ve never seen one.
Often done for diversity’s sake at the cost of quality, yes. This is executive meddling and generally doesn’t work as intended.
You totally are, just avoid media hype.
I don’t even think you’re necessarily wrong, but I’m arguing that in the absence of media amplification and/or existing bigotry, this would not be a problem.
I do agree that media amplification is not only part of the problem, but a significant portion of it. but the media influence has started to regretfully show its effects
“Thanks for pushing normal people to the far-right” is an overt strategy passed around 4chan and far-right chat channels, intended to both discourage the left from defending their views and create the idea that being bigoted is something “normal people” support.
“Defending your rights” and being as loud as possible for the sake of it are 2 completely different things.
The two closest homosexuals in my life are my favorite uncle and my best friend, that happens to be my attorney. My uncle is openly gay, my attorney is married to another woman. This has absolutely NO impact in our interactions. Why? Simple, that’s their business, and everyone in their environment understands this.
Guess why I don’t have more gay people in my environment. Because I don’t like people, precisely because of this incessant need to be loud about irrelevant shit like sexuality. You lack so much of everything else that the only way you have to be seen is your sexual preference? That’s the saddest shit ever. That level of emptiness has to be grueling.
If you have to be constantly “defending” your sexuality, you need to examine the environment you have chosen to participate in.
The problem here is not sexual preference, the problem is that sexual preference, for reasons I can’t begin to understand, has become the defining factor for people, instead of principles, moral, honesty and just flat out being nice.
When was the last time you saw a “heterosexual” parade, specially with a bunch of people swinging it all out?
Whatever happened to “you do you, I do me”?
Literally the sentence before that one was you being critical of pride parades, so I guess you mean “You do you (but only with my rubber stamp of approval)”
Pretty much.
I disagree that it it’s bigoted to for instance, not like games which have rewritten characters to fit a certain demographic, whether it be sexuality or race.
Okay Gamer.
@drwankingstein @PoliticalAgitator Kinda agree with you, people are sick and tired of good culture works being slowly replaced by DEI-quotaed movies, games etc
yup, it’s one of those “death by a thousands cuts” thing, except instead of death its a large amount of annoyance and in many cases, hate
