Current Events > That Texas-hating topic angered me. Moreover, it alluded to a bigger issue.

(+) Yeah! (+)

The topic gave me the impression that all that matters is an entity's political beliefs. This...tunnel vision has turned this board into a mere battleground for savage mud-slinging. Is this tribal mentality all you know?

Insulting someone or something based upon a single aspect of a multidimensional base is childish and toxic. On several occasions, I've said that my guides and my friends are the only two things keeping me on this site. I'm weary of seeing pure malice taint this site.

My very life intertwines with Texas-based medical facilities. Furthermore, I have seen scores of good people help victims of Hurricane Harvey. Even before that, I have seen good people give aid and hope to the unfortunate.

Next time, don't judge until you've examined every part of the subject.

What is it with people being so triggered they have to make an entire new topic to make sure their shitpost from another topic is seen?
---

CE is so overrun with far-left radicals that it's not uncommon to see topics like that now. Bashing the south even though it's half of the country is quite normal and accepted. Downright expected even. It's almost like some people feel obligated to shitpost about the southern states.

The topic was closed. Regardless, judging without perfect information is a poisonous habit.

Frankly, when your political beliefs are apocalyptic and have no long-term plans of saving humanity from obvious problems that affect everyone including our children, then fuck you. You bet your ass I will judge you and everything you stand for.

Thanks for the context. I can totally use it to validate that you have a point and aren't just butthurt so naturally I'm gonna assume the first of those two.

Imagine going off such a deep end that you literally think this type of generalization can be applied to a state as fucking massive as Texas.

As someone from TN I'm just sitting here like "hey guys most of us are pretty normal down here."

Yeah there are some bad people, but they aren't the majority. There are people like that everywhere, not just the south.

You're on CE though. This place literally is overrun by actual communists and SJWs. Extremely toxic, bitter, and hateful individuals.

Is this post against the TOS or does he have to attach an actual moniker to any of monikers?

The point is the same, the question is just whether he's slithering through the moderation code like a very snake-like manner or if that shit gets called out too.

I mean we have people here who are convinced that Florida is the worst state in the country and a complete madhouse because they read some dumb news articles of isolated incidents on here or the Florida Man twitter account

CE generally has very limited knowledge of the world outside its suburban bubble. Getting this upset about it just makes you look strange

Not to mention the topic TC got mad about was made by a 13-karma rando.

Who do you think is most likely to make those generalizations about the south? Normal and well-adjusted individuals, or communists and SJWs?

I honestly don't give a fuck.

There's no convincing a stubborn idiot that he's a stubborn idiot. It's not even worth discussing.

Treat others like shit and you will be treated like shit. If anything, it's time Texas reaped what they sowed.

It almost like you should judge people based on individual merit and not the region they're from. I didn't choose to be born and raised in the south, but I was. That doesn't determine who I am as a human being

Shuto-uke is a ROD alt anywayI could tell because he was throwing some insane hissy fit over uncircumcised penises in another topic

I don't care who it was or wasn't. It was blind hatred.

As a Texan, stop being so sensitive.

It's us "Texas Liberals" the reason our state government is shit. Nobody wants to vote except older conservative evangelicals, and it screws the whole state over while also making us look like jokes.

I keep out of politics.

Conflict posted...

Do you think acting weirdly oversensitive about it is going to prevent further "blind hatred" or encourage more of it

And thus, I see CE as beyond reason.

I tire of it.

"You are unreasonable!" - The unreasonably upset poster

The only south most of CE even has any experience with is the basement. These people are meaningless nobodies that would never say the stuff they say on here in real life.

Just shrug it off and don't worry about it. They literally couldn't matter any less

"Hey Patrick, what am I now?"

"Uhhh, stupid?"

"No, I'm Texas!"

"What's the difference?"

TC is directly responsible for this hatefilled post by his absurd whining and ass-blastedness.

He should apologize for being a beacon of hate for his state.

I've been on CE since 2003. If this board wants to destroy itself with malice, it will. You're right in that I lack the abilities to change this decay.
