It says a lot about someone if they get triggered by no longer being able to be a dick to people. Truly the real snowflakes of our times when they throw tantrums about something like this. Why are you so triggered bro? Always hilarious when they have to resort to outright hyperbolic conspiracy theories and fantasy situations that never happen in the real world to try and scare people about what is a really basic rule change that said 'don't be a dick or a prick to trans people.'

Don't be an ass to people, it's free and actually quite easy my dude. Nothing in the update is going to get you banned and if you lack the ability to criticize folks without insulting them well, guess that just says a lot about you.

I'm making fun of a rule change and you think I'm throwing a tantrum? I was simply making fun of a policy update.

I'm not a dick to trans people, but I have seen and personally witnessed trans people who flipped their shit when you don't understand something about them or accidentally mis-gender them or some other such. For example when you try to scientifically figure out which they were born as, they claim female when male, proclaiming that because they felt female they were born female. But scientifically and genetically they are/were male, and are susceptible to male diseases, but noooo they don't think about that because they don't care, they flip their shit when you try to determine what they were even for medical purposes. I have several trans friends, and they are level headed and don't flip their shit when you talk to them about their before and after gender stuff. However, a small minority of hypersensitive trans people who have the biggest mouths force these rule changes because of a few accidental incidents that they blew out of proportion, or because of a small minority of people who actually go out of their way to attack them.

Also, hyperbolic conspiracy theory? What did I say that was hyperbolic and conspiracy?

Also if you must know, I am incapable of feeling empathy. I am direct and blunt with what i want to say. Most people can't handle that. Their emotions get in the way and make them all offended for some reason. No, you can't blame me for lacking empathy, its a disability, I can't control it. You can't feel something you don't have. Now, I could have taken offense to what you posted here and assumed that you were here to attack me, if I were an emotional person but I'm not. I don't care what you've said, and after today it won't even matter, because if we talk again I won't factor in today's disagreement. The interesting thing, my disability allows me to be objective, and see things unbiased. Most people can't do this, and they have an agenda and want to punish someone for having a different point of view.

Now, I may have posted this because I am annoyed about the social justice warrior problem we have lately. Where movies portray women as superior to all men, trans people as superior to all humans, where "the white man" is always treated as racist, sexist, bad in some way. Many of my favorite movies were ruined by social justice warrior movements. Political crap in our movies has put me in a fowl mood, and I witness this same movement moving across the internet one site at a time. Rule changes like "Don't hurt people's feelings or you'll be punished". We'll probably start moving to a social justice system where police are phased out we start wearing badges that show our social counter, Anything less than 3 stars and we can't eat in public places anymore, 2 stars we aren't allowed to do business anymore, 1 star and we are jailed and await sentencing to death. Orville did that episode pretty accurately, also Black Mirror too.

However, this journal was just mostly to make fun of the policy change that I found ridiculous. "Don't harass anyone", that was a hilarious statement. "Don't be mean to anyone or hurt their feelings" is what it translates to. People these days, are wimpy and pathetic, and will cry at the drop of a pin and go to admins asking them to ban the mean guy who insulted them. If I call some guy an idiot, thats not harassment, thats a statement. If he didn't want to be called an idiot, perhaps he shouldn't have said, or done something stupid. My friend RL did stupid shit, I called him an idiot, he didn't flip the fuck out. Why can't everyone be like that?

I'm going to predict something now;
You're going to call me an asshole and probably block me because I have a different view than you.
EDIT: Looks like I was right. I'm sorry you can't handle different views.

Completely agreed.

People nowadays get offended even if you just glance at them. Everyone is getting hella weak when it comes to debating and talking about different views without immediately getting offended. And, from what I've seen, it's always the same thing: if you don't agree with their views or have different opinions about the subject matter, you're either called out, or they post about you on Twitter asking other people to block you.

It's like what I've seen in a journal here on FA, last week. A (visibly leftist) artist posted a journal saying that if you disagreed with the things they said there (for example, that ALL cops are trash, and death to rich people), you could unwatch them right away. So far, so good, but the issue is when someone tried to debate about those statements on the comments. The artist was immediately mad about that, and the person could only reply to their reply once, before they found themselves blocked.

I swear to God, these people just seem to love living in a bubble. They can't stand anyone who have different views than their own, and instead of trying to understand why those views are different and why they can also be valid, they prefer to seek trying to stay in a big bubble where everyone thinks the same and have the same views, thoughts and opinions. That's unhealthy. Difference of opinion is good, and needed.

People that leftist are stupid though. Someone who would call all of a workforce trash, and say death to all people of a specific wealth class, are jealous stupid morons not worth anyone's time.

I am sorta towards the left on some things, and towards the right on others.

Its just the new age kiddies who grew up in a time where there are no problems. They invent new problems to pretend they've had a hard life growing up. "Waaaah, someone misgendered me because I look like a dude and have a bulge and facial hair and sound like a man but dress like a woman, life is so bad for me" where people from my time grew up with pharmaceutical companies illegally forcing dangerous experimental life threatening permanent damage causing drugs on kids, bullies beating kids up at school, parents beating children because no one did anything about it, etc etc. Yea, thats totally not as bad as someone misgendering me by accident. But you know, things are different for the time being, the age is better now, and kids growing up have no real conflict so they make the little conflict that does happen into a big deal.
