This is an incredibly bad-faith argument. He was talking about trans women, using intentionally obfuscating language. You know that. I know that. Everyone knows that. Stop trying to defend the indefensible.

There is also now a non chance that he’s banned. That shit was blatant, stupid, and off-topic. Definitely not welcome here.

It was blatantly transphobic.

It’s not.

This can’t be real.

OK, it’s real. I wonder if they have a spokesman with the title, “The Mouth of Sauron?”

Nah, man, Harambe’s fine. He just really likes music.

Hey, poking my head in from Parallel Earth. You guys hear the latest David Bowie album? Dude’s old, but it’s fire. President Clinton used a song from it during her farewell address. I heard they played it for Harambe, too.

He’s also banned now.

That one’s a classic.

Quality post. I really did think I was reading an Onion headline.

And I have to admit, the first time I saw the guy in my neighborhood who bought one driving it around, I pointed and laughed too.

What the heck is going on in Sweden? For the last few years, most of the news coming out of it seems pretty weird.

I worry about the people who need to be told things like this. How did they survive childhood without signs warning them not to breathe water or drink the contents of thermometers?

Something about packing heat, too.

Finally, some quality content!

Yep. I always want to give people the benefit of the doubt, but when they reveal themselves to be actual proud bigots, the likelihood that they’ll bring interesting and engaging conversation to the table drops to zero.

Plus, I don’t want to moderate a community that tolerates that crap. You know the Nazi bar thing? I don’t want to run a Nazi bar.

Dude’s banned now. Once I saw the “NPC” shit (common term from white supremacists) I realized just removing his crap wasn’t going to be enough.

That’s a problem for future CEO John Q. Moneybags. Present CEO John Q. Moneybags just improved this quarter’s financials, and is already planning his golden-parachute retirement before becoming future Mr. Moneybags.

Any idea if those protests are making any difference? Watching Israel become this has been heartbreaking.

I don’t miss Reddit often, but when I do, it’s because a certain duck-obsessed novelty account would have a field day with this.
