probably would make you feel better if you assumed people in 196 are interacting in good faith. it’s a cruel world out there, but you don’t typically end up here without a little warmth in your heart
they’re probably as normal as any other 196 user! I peaked at their post history and it seems normal? Wasn’t able to sort by their controversial opinions
I live in a place where my existence is perverted. It made me feel like shit because I thought I was disgusting for just being me, being called slurs and stuff like “abomination” and “pervert” when I would date another woman.
Overcoming that was a challenge. Part of reclaiming my humanity was tongue in cheek leaning into the hurtful things I was called. I’m not sure if you ever experienced “gay” being a synonym for “bad,” but it’s fun to now call anything that is actually homosexual “gay” to take back the word. It’s nice to do this with other people that had that same experience, too.
Being in a queer community, I think that is what is going on here with this meme.
well yea…bt post implied were all lik - ew kindsa peeps…
I’d argue that “perverting” conservative ideals is a good thing, and far less ew than the way conservatives think the world should be run.
It’s all on how you view the word perversion being used.

so… i do agree with u, bt I dun thinks it meks sense in dis context. ~ >~

Yeah, the rules here state that’s how people should act too.
I have high confidence that the mods will handle people who are acting in bad faith.
