| Topic | Do you speak out against homophobia like your do racism? |
| Bad_Mojo 07/04/19 1:20:54 PM #1: | @sktgamer_13dude Is kind of the reason for this topic because of this post - sktgamer_13dude posted... and an NFL owner literally referred to NFL players protesting as inmates running the prison So if you ever hear someone describe something as, 'gay,' in a negative way, do you complain about that? How about telling someone that they "suck" at something? Because those phrase are rooted in homophobia/sexism and not just a conmanly used phrase that people have been using for years with zero connection to slavery or racism until other projected that feeling onto others I see and hear a LOT more homophobic people out in the world and at the school I work at with really offensive stuff and not just reaching for something to be upset about like an early version of the US Flag That's the biggest issue I have with this whole thing, I guess. There is still really offensive things people do and say about gay people that no unchecked while people go out of their way to get really upset of the most petty of issues [Every US flag is racist, taking phrases out of context] when it comes to race I've been a liberal for a long time. I guess it's because I have been fighting for gay rights in this country since the early 90s when it was opening alright to say horrible things about gay people that this makes me so angry /rant We have to start being nice to everyone, but we also need to stop over thinking every single phrase we use. --- ...
