    If you “need to respect everyone” then why are you here defending JP who get far more respect than he deserves when you could be respecting and supporting the choices of minorities?

    Seems like your vocal, active, respect is EXTREMELY selective! You seem to mostly fight for the respect of people who actively advocate to disrespect the weak and disenfranchised. How strange!

    I’m not sure what part of respect and tolerance are a social contract is confusing to you. No it’s not a basic human right. If you spout off hateful rhetoric you can’t expect everyone “respect” you after. If you threaten to assault, or assault people, you can’t expect to be treated non-violently after.

    When the fuck was it a “basic human right” to be treated with respect even though you’re a raging violent asshole. Last I checked violence is met with the violence required to make you stop, then usually by further punishment.

    Absolute brain-dead take.

    1. English is a gendered language, therefore it’s important to gender people for basic communication.

    2. “Cis-male/trans-male” is more inclusive than the cisnormative “male/trans-male”.

    So until everyone accepts that “male” includes cis and trans, anyone who intends to respect basic human dignity will use “Cis-male/trans-male” when discussing gender. Simple as.

    Respect is a two way street. It’s a contract between people. If someone threatens you, as in his tweet, he doesn’t get to have respect. If someone is “just asking questions” like you are… You don’t get to have respect.

    • Isn’t it strange that your questions seem to only go on one direction?
    • Why aren’t you asking questions of JP?
    • Why does he not want to be called cisgendered when that’s what he is?
    • Is it because removing the prefix “cis” makes it easier to alienate trans people?
    • Why are you suddenly obsessed with respecting other people’s “chosen” labels?
    • Do you think “cis” and “trans” are a choice?
    • Have you supported queer peoples labels in the past?
    • Why do you only take on the position of “let’s respect other people’s basic humanity” when defending heinous right wing grifters?
    • When have you defended the basic humanity of minorities in the past?
    • Why do you demand your one sided leading questions be answered in a meaningful way but there isn’t a chance in hell you’ll answer these ones meaningfully?
    • Why aren’t you pointing out that a grown ass man, brain damaged or otherwise, threatening strangers on the internet isn’t respectful behaviour?
    • Why do you think disrespectful behaviour should be met with respect?
    • Would you respect someone threatening to assault you?
    • Would you respect someone entering your home?
    • Why are you such a coward? when someone threatens you shouldn’t you defend yourself?

    It’s so easy to look like you aren’t an absolutely garbage human being under the guise of “just asking questions”, but people are waking up to your bullshit right wing technique. In the words of innuendo studio

    And because these folks keep showing up in each others’ metadata, regardless of what they say, Google thinks there is definitely a relationship between the guy “just asking questions” and the guy denying the Holocaust

  • You literally used the fact that states are currently undoing abortion access in your argument that you support states right to choose!

    Edit here are some quotes, all I removed was rambling

    The third option is we split up, and go our separate ways. Personally, I prefer the third option, and I think it’s already happening.

    Take abortion, for instance. The overturning of Roe v Wade didn’t make abortion illegal throughout the whole country, it simply returned the matter to the states.

    But that’s not necessarily a bad thing. I think it’s better to have a weaker federal government and for more power to be returned to the states





  • That’s not what I said. In neither situation does the deal enforce that the person HAS to use the loudspeaker for hate speech. I wish I could blame your reading comprehension but it’s painfully obvious you’re arguing in bad faith since this is the pedantic detail you’re stuck on instead of the rest of my argument.

    Every Twitter user makes a deal with Twitter to get an account. This deal includes what’s acceptable behaviour. If Twitter’s policy allows hate speech then it’s Twitter’s fault their platform is spreading hate speech. If Twitter’s policy prohibits hate speech then it’s still their fault because they’re not enforcing their policy. This is something Twitter had no problem with before their degenerate new owner fired the enforcement team.

    Now let’s see what pedantic detail you get stuck on this time instead of facing the fact Twitter is liable for enabling hate speech to spread faster than ever before!



  • If you make a deal with someone to come on your front porch every day yelling hate speech into your loudspeaker I think you’ll find it’s pretty easy to be held accountable for what other people say.

    Second, if you’ll remember, Twitter makes money from showing adds on this speech. It’s not like they’re doing this out of the goodness of their hearts. Profiting from hate speech isn’t going to be looked at kindly.
