I’ve seen some people getting genuinely uncomfortable at the recent discourse. Just wanted to point out there’s more than one kind of weird.

    I guess when I hear people derisively calling someone gay, I just think to myself, “They mean the bad kind of gay, they’re not talking about me.”

      Yeah, kinda like that gay pride image of Putin. It’s mocking him and his draconian views of gay people, not gay people themselves.

        Kinda like that ONE time someone called someone gay and nothing like the billions of other times. Got it, how could I have ever been confused.

        Has it occurred to you that maybe I object to that, too? It’s not okay just because it’s Putin.
