I am transphobic. I'll admit that right now. I believe all should be locked up in a mental institution. You're either straight or gay.
Reported for harassment. Cool it.
I find it difficult to believe that you've followed this case from the beginning, yet fail to understand transgender issues. There's no way you're that blinded.I'm genuinely concerned with how you refuse to understand this subject.
The first step is admitting you don't understand. Good job.Being trans is entirely different than being gay or straight. You still don't understand the subject. I suggest you find some resources online and become familiar with the area.
So basically some dude changed his name to chelsea. Yeah thats pretty weird.
kiyo, why are you wasting your time debating with PSU?would we be worse off without his shitty opinions? would anyone object if you just banned him?
"Weird" or not, that's still the legal name and it cannot be debated.
No thanks. I know exactly what trans people are. They are MENTAL. And this really has nothing to do with the case anyway. Just a liberal media ploy.
Birth defect actually, not a mental disorder.It's been medically proven that sometimes in rare cases, the brain and body can develop with different levels of sex hormones, often leading to transgenderism.
Still not the root of all, mind you.
Well he's not breaking any rules. Besides we aren't Waypoint, we don't ban based on differing opinions
I'd argue that differing opinions are a whole different beast than naked bigotry, but hey, you're the mod.I just don't think PSU-style shitposting is appropriate for a forum dedicated to serious discussion.
Bigotry isn't exactly against the rules unless it's directed at another member.Nor do I but hey I don't make the rules, only enforce em.
We disagree on a lot- well... most issues, but I appreciate you being the enforcer on this topic.
While I do get the vibe that PSU is deliberately trying to piss people off with her opinions,
While I do get the vibe that PSU is deliberately trying to piss people off with her opinions, this is one of those nation-wide news stories that has a lot of people split.
But then where would we be if we disallowed controversial topics like this one? While I do get the vibe that PSU is deliberately trying to piss people off with her opinions, this is one of those nation-wide news stories that has a lot of people split.In any case, forcing this person to serve her sentence without treatment seems a bit cruel and unusual, in my opinion.
I am a he.
Oops, my bad . Didn't mean to misgender you.
Controversial opinions are fine, but posts made for the specific purpose of antagonizing people shouldn't be tolerated, IMO.
Controversial opinions are fine, but posts made for the specific purpose of antagonizing people shouldn't be tolerated, IMO. All it does is drive down the level of discourse and derail otherwise quality threads.
I agree 100%
and yet, that's precisely what you did here.
Not at all. I posted my opinions and you attacked me.
Good. Its a HE.
If we take a very strict approach to that issue then it has the potential to cause problems for people who may not have been acting very seriously and it leaves much less room for 'joshing' other members. I dig lax moderation and a less uptight board.Some kid can make a joke and a mod could potentially take offense and give him the boot. Then you get people complaining about harsh rules etc. and so much more shit for mods to have to take care of.
That would be a fine justification for The Flood or Gaming, but isn't this forum in particular supposed to be dedicated to serious discussion (hence the name)?
