Anti-SJW theracismrepellent: not-fedora: theracismrepellent: You mean, “I think I’m solving a problem on the internet by trolling people who disagree with my bigotry.” You mean, “I think being edgy on the internet is more important than people’s basic human rights.” You mean, “I believe all of the propaganda I see on television and on the internet and… You think you’re right. The thing that most annoys me about you SJ types is you think that what you think is correct. Every time. I admit that some things I believe in are stupid. But you are not the saviours of the world, because you are an Internet activist. You don’t do anything but spread intolerance. That’s the point. You ASSUME no one here does any real life activism. You ASSUME no one here is affected in real life by any of the things they bring up online. You also ASSUME that posting online is for the purpose of fighting “a cause” when in reality, half the time it’s just people talking about their lived experiences. Making assumptions about what I do in my personal life doesn’t make your point any more valid and at the end of the day if you are against other people’s human rights, for any of the reasons that make them human, you are wrong and you’re dismissed. Well you ASSUME that people who oppose your views are big ol’ bigots. Then again, those boundaries have been stretched ridiculously on tumble.

No where have I said that people who oppose my views are bigots. In fact, in this context, the meaning of the word ‘bigot’ is being twisted to mean ‘anyone who disagrees with me’ when in fact it simply means:

One who is strongly partial to one’s own group, religion, race, or politics and is intolerant of those who differ.

If you think for a second that it is intolerance to identify, discuss,and eliminate active and/or systemic issues that plague our society you probably are on the more privileged end of the spectrum, anyway. People on the privileged end of the spectrum are afraid of losing their lovely hegemonic privileges, and it comes to me as no surprise that you’d try to make this argument as if it is to discredit me.
