but because these days the definition of hate speech has shifted from analyzing whether or not someone was intending to be hurtful to whether or not someone felt hurt by what was said.


That's the projection that such is broad spectrum but is it actually? It doesn't seem so to me, it seems mostly isolated or vague incidents with a few that actually qualify. It seems to me that it's more of a case of reinforcing a new meme with the intent of silencing not just the LGBT community but anyone left of conservative. Ironic.

Since the inception of TV, the white cis gay male has been portrayed in western society as both the poster-child in establishing gay rights as well as a moral pariah dooming civilization to oblivion.

So, as a hetrosexual, I will continue to view the LGBT community as being predominantly established through the tribulations associated with that demographic.

It is a shame that a motion of this nature was even raised as it shows to me that there are indeed some very bitter and narrow minded folks within the LGBT community who deem it necessary to further marginalize a demographic that quite frankly deserves more respect than to be collectively targeted from within.

A house divided against itself cannot stand.

Gay white males aren't high enough on the sjw made up latter so their opinions mean nothing

Never be surprised at the new bs that they come up with weekly

A Gay black Muslim gender fluid female is God to them

It's not just the LBGT community though. Apparently, they're taking apart the Humanists too. There is a movement called Humanism+ for those who are feminist humanists and LBGT humanists, etc. In other words, intersectionalism has hit the humanists and is trying to dissect them too in the same way.

A take?

It's exactly what happened. The threatened people and pushed out any media. The only speech they wanted was their own.

With that one example they told the entire country how they feel about freedom of speech.

Have you looked at the threads by Conservatives lately or their comments all over the net? The whining and crying for safe spaces where no one can say mean things is leagues beyond anyone else... I suspect you know this.

Yah well There's a difference between whining for safe spaces and refusing to take being run over by a rude mack truck just because they can.

Yes a take. How many of the protesters were involved in that incident? More blaming all for the few.

These people want to do away with free speech. Using terms like "hate speech" to describe literally ANYTHING they don't agree with. They do it to anyone who displays remotely conservative views of any kind.


Conservatives are guilty of the same thing. I'm really surprised that you aren't being more objective. And - not just you. It's as if the conservatives honestly can't hear themselves whining - or playing victim

ETA: These people?

If you pay attention - no matter which group we're looking at - it all breaks down the same. I've noticed that after 8 years of people complaining that they're not free to say what they want to say because some people are trying to take away they're freedom to speak - we're all still speaking. What you just did with this post is accuse the liberals of using hate speech...

Do you personally hear much support coming from the conservatives for liberal views? Ever?

I don't mind so much when the usual suspects blather on about how the liberals are ruining life for everyone - it actually hurts when I hear the more rational just completely cave and join in

Cis doesn't have to do with sexual orientation but gender identification. So, gay means someone attracted to their same gender/sex. Cis means that someone identifies themselves with the physical sex they apparently have, whereas trans means they don't.

I thought that one couldn't be gay and "cis" simultaneously, if "cis" is the gender expression of the biological sex one was born as? Anyway, good for them. Sounds like they're rising above. Great stuff...


So does that mean if your a transgender male your a lesbian?

First they turn on everyone else then they turn on eachother, such is the nature of this victimization disease.


Bingo. Once the perpetual victim class such as this, runs out of people to attack, they turn on each other.

ALWAYS

I think people here know very well that calling people haters and bigots is one of the fastest ways to shut down a real conversation. Another favorite seems to be telling people they don't know or understand (fill in the blank with x-y-z).

My head was spinning last night with all the definitions....who knew there were so many variations on a theme

Are there no haters or bigots?

Should we not be allowed to say so out loud?

If a transgendered person is a 'tranny'...is a cisgendered person a 'cissy'?
