      “Uppity faggots are just trolls!” wow I feel like I’m back in 2018. It’s not working, nobody’s falling for your bullshit.

      I love how you just compared a gay man who was tortured for being gay to a racist man with a racist sign. You would be less offensive if you just called us faggots.

        I love how you think it is okay to make the snap judgment the person as being a racist but cannot seem to see how that is hypocritical.

        If you understood the reference you’d have known the character was anything but racist.

        It’s not even about the racism. It’s the decision to be so obviously racist in an environment that is understood by everyone to be lethally hostile to racists.

            If your car gets stolen one of the first questions the police ask is “were the keys in the ignition”? Why?

                You realize ofc that by thinking my Socratic answer victim blames that it proves you understand the victim does bear some fault for their unfortunate treatment? Being insulting isn’t going to hide that you lost. Show some civility lest you get no sympathy for the consequences of your rudeness (as poetic as that might be).

                    No, I compared someone who decided to move to a country where their existence was grounds for torture to someone being forced to wear a racist sign, with the obvious discrepancy being the ‘forced racist’ didn’t even really have a choice in the matter.

                    Also: congrats on getting a sentence out without using an insult.
