Are you familiar with the song "If I Only Had a Brain..."?
Because it appears that you've not yet found out why the oceans near the shore. |

That sort of insulting remark is hardly befitting a moderator. At least my biting little comment had some reasonable basis. | |||

I need to clarify that I in no way advocate any sort of bigotry, and that I am all for a person's freedom to exp |

Originally posted by SilvershieldBut really, who cares if you are? If they don't like it, they can not read your posts. You have every right to be a racist, bigot, etc., just don't expect to be liked very much for it I really dislike those that think everyone else has to change themselves to accomodate their beliefs. An opinion is just that, an opinion. A big reason why extreme leftists suck. |

I'm just covering all angles, because I know I'll be called a bigot in some context at some point in the future. | |||

This is the thing I can't stand. When we attack you guys for it you whine that it's not fair that we attack you.
Grow up. |

I know what a bigot is, and I know what one is. There is no such thing as a general bigot, someone who hates everything that isn't his own opinion. In one thread I may not have agreed with your opinion, but I tolerated it. I proved you wrong on factual grounds, though. I will admit, I'm bigotted towards homophobes. And frankly, I am not going to tolerate positions like that. I tolerate conservative positions on a lot of things. But discrimination against my friends, be it racism, homophobia, sexism, misogyny, anti-semetism, islamophobia, christophobia (whatever intolerance towards Christians would be called)...I'm not going to stand by. | |||

Ziff, what's your problem? You do seem to attack SS rather than supporting your own argument there. All SS is trying to say is that he's against using concise terms to put on someone. And I agree. Although the whole PC shit was made to lessen ignorance, what it does is create more groups and separations that don't really improve the situation. Why try guessing a one word term for what Kasumi is? That's just stupid. (no offense to Kasumi, just the whole idea of such specific classification) | |||

First of all, I'm not sure which occasion you're referring to when you say you've proven me wrong on "factual grounds" in some argument.
Secondly, why does disgust with our modern society's tendency towards a ridiculous degree of political correctness constitute homophobia? |

Originally posted by geeogree Wow, an error. Congratulations to you for pointing it out. Trunxy: I'm attacking him tit-for-tat for his attacks on me. Plain and simple. Not the best plan, I'll admit and hardly all that mature. But until SS cuts me some slack I'll give him none. However, when something can be classed into definitive terms where the terms are properly defined as is...Then do so. I don't want to talk about Kas too much, but I believe that she is open with this by now and if you've been around for a while you probably know. Kas is a transsexual. She has had her sex changed to match who she is. That is far different than gender ambiguous. Perhaps this is the sort of habit that you pick up when you work in this field. Silvershield: I'm not going to attack you for being a homophobe. I don't agree with a position like that - I find it disgusting and repulsive - and I will argue it. Positions like that lead to ambivalence and ignorance of the truth. When that happens, slipper slope here, bad things happen. Look at Jamaica right now. The ignorance and lack of acceptance towards gays is deadly, literally. Even in many places in the United States people are attacked for BEING HOMOSEXUAL. That's just wrong, no matter what way you slice it. For years they've been maligned, thrown in prison for being in love with someone else, been persecuted and feared, and most dangerously they were ignored and overlooked during the AIDS epidemic after being declared the scape goat. I have agreed with you in the past that a lot of things in modern society have gone way too far. However, your posts with regards to homosexuality is that you do not tolerate it. In fact, given some of your posts in other topics you're down right afraid and disgusted of other male forms. That would constitute homophobia. As for political correctness - I have a problem with it too. Acceptance isn't a part of that though. The blanket term of political correctness is a damper to the English language, it limits slang and it limits discourse. Some people will adhere to everything PC. But accepting and tolerating people because of what they are isn't political correctness - it's accepting and tolerating them. But I could go on for hours. |

Originally posted by Plus Sign AbominationMy "attacks on you" are not the baseless, random insults ("Are you familiar with the song 'If I Only Had a Brain...?'") that you throw at me. I react offensively when you've given me reason to, not because I enjoy inciting a moderator. Originally posted by Plus Sign AbominationOk, she's transsexual. That makes the job of classifying her preference even eaiser: she is a bisexual transsexual. Originally posted by Plus Sign AbominationWhich is appropriate, because I'm not a homophobe. Originally posted by Plus Sign AbominationFull agreement there. Originally posted by Plus Sign AbominationWould you like to point out a single instance in which anything I've said can justify this accusation? What the hell are you talking about? Originally posted by Plus Sign AbominationI accept and tolerate everyone. Being a huge fan of the actions those people commit is a different story, but that doesn't stop me from affording any person with an "alternative lifestyle" the same respect and dignified treatment that I'd give to anybody else. |

You're a hypocrite, Ziff. You say all this about accepting people for who they are, yet you yourself admit to being biggoted towards homophobes. What say you to that? | |||

Originally posted by Plus Sign Abomination Heh, Ziff, but you made it about tolerance and acceptance. When it was originally about classification. I fail to see where you got the ideas that Silvershield or anyone else was being intolerant. Originally posted by Silvershield Originally posted by Silvershield Originally posted by Silvershield Originally posted by Plus Sign Abomination Originally posted by Silvershield Well this may be a stretch, but it seems that you are inclined to think of SS as intolerant regardless of what he's stated. Sounds like YOU'RE the bigot. (edited by Captain Subtext on 04-26-06 08:41 PM) |

Well, if he honestly doesn't find himself to a homophobe I may have to reevaulate my position.
And perhaps you should've analyzed my post that ya quoted a lil' better. |

Originally posted by Plus Sign AbominationDon't make it out to sound like I'm in denial or something. I would hardly consider myself homophobic, that's for sure, but I also fail to see any words of mine that would give that impression in the first place.
