Thanks, more bad faith "wahh we can't be bothered to consider people's feelings!"
Who has the time, I know. There's just not enough time in the world for you to ever change the way you think or act. Better just keep on never growing or improving. Never change a single thing about the way you interact with others.
I get it. It's just too hard for you to be considerate of others. Too much time, too much effort.
Who are you quoting?
I could ask you the same question about the word "retard".
You've used the slur countless times in this thread.
But no one in this thread has every said every man on the planet is toxic. Where did that strawman come from? Who are you quoting?
It is a slur. That is a fact, you cannot just say "nuh-uh" to facts.
You do not get to decide to override facts. You can't decide that a slur isn't a slur any more than you can decide the sky is red.
You cannot decide that up is down. You cannot decide that black is white. You cannot decide that cats are dogs.
"Wahh I still can't come up with any good faith argument so I'm gonna segue into some other sad little thing I get upset about and call you a hypocrite with absolutely no evidence!"
I know, I know, we need to be considerate of men's feelings. We need to be so considerate towards men that we should bring it up when it has nothing to do with the conversation.
But we don't need to be considerate of the feelings of humanity's most vulnerable populations. Who has the time? Who has the virtue?
Gee, that's funny. I could say the same exact thing about you for getting so upset over a sad little thing like someone using the word "retard", y'know.
Oh, how the turn tables. 😉
The tables turned...? I never once changed the conversation, so this childish "I'm rubber and you're glue" routine doesn't even make sense here. Go off I guess.
