I know this is bait but I kind of agree. Not sure why it was moved to the flood. Even if it was flagrant shitposting, it still had a semblance of serious discussion value to it.

I can see a case for moving it back, but it's a shitposty/bait thread to begin with which kind of stacks it against itself.

While Dustin is just attempting to ruse he manages to bring up a valid point.Anybody who has a view that is remotely different than the status quo, which is obviously socially liberal, will instantly get shit on and not taken seriously. Freedom of speech, y'all. Everyone should have the right to voice their opinion in a serious matter.

Or is that a working progress?

Everyone should have the right to voice their opinion in a serious matter.His freedom of speech has not been violated No one's arguing against that (extremely overused) comic. It's more about the fact that any viewpoint that doesn't conform to a socially liberal standard is immediately discredited by the community.
"BUT WE'RE NOT BIASED I SWEAR""WE EVEN MADE THE MOD-BIAS MEME TO GET PEOPLE TO STOP CALLING US OUT ON OUR ABUSE OF POWER"You have no legit reason to ban the discussion of transexuals just because we don't have the same opinion as you."OH NO HE HAS A DIFFERENT OPINION, HE MUST BE BAITING""MY FEELINGS ARE SO HURT ALL I CAN DO IS CRY WHINE AND DO ALL I CAN TO GET YOU TO STOP SHARING OPINIONS I DON'T AGREE WITH"
