I remeber you making a remark a long time ago that you were a strong ally of lgbtq people. I'm trying not to out you which would be very bad taste on my part, however it would not be wrong to call someone an ally. I just am curious as to why you aren't a more vocal ally and why this is of little importance to you. Of course, you have a point that not EVERYONE in the middle east is a prejudiced person, despite laws against gay people and women. However, these laws continue to exist because enough people still agree with them, and i think that this is a fair middle ground where we can both come together. When you see that these laws are in several middle eastern nations, you start to realize that there is still a fair amount of prejudice there and it must have activists that try to make the area a better place for all people. I'm going to continue to rail against the religious right that continues to hold prejudiced beleifs until they are changed. Until I can bring my boyfriend to a church just as a hetero couple can, then i have the belief that i'm in a prejudiced location. The muslims as well, seem prejudiced. It seems quite odd, because I've found pictures of them lifting their rears and to go and make laws against gay people it would seem like they are quite gay themselves. Does this picture strike you as kinda gay?  If you don't like the message then fine, i don't see why you continue to involve yourself in it. Why not find a thread that you enjoy more? |
I agree with you about the message, it's the delivery that's the issue. Your delivery method seems to be conflict, and I reckon you're not ready or capable of going far enough to achieve anything using conflict. Instead, you're just creating polarization. Just to be clear, I'm not advocating for conflict, because I don't think it's nice for anyone involved, which might as well be everyone. I can see where you're coming from. I just don't think your online delivery seems like a fruitful approach to achieve what you want. You might be able to rouse up some people in your support if you're lucky, but you're probably not going to change anyone's mind. |
It sounds conflicting b ecause people are just coming up to me and arguing. Y'all can't let me have my thread and i have to defend myself. How about all of the people that don't like it go find a better thread? The arguments about the legitimacy of the thread is where the problem is.
Please go find a better thread and leave this one. There were no problems until you came here.
