    You knew what I meant

    …no? wtf

    You didn’t even really answer my main question, what you want them to do. You could have just explained your point or what you really criticize but you choose to insult me instead. I don’t have to “make you the bad guy” if you behave like that.

    I’m not from the US so I didn’t feel this whole wave of protests on a cultural level, but I know some people criticizing so called “rainbow capitalism” (and it reminded me of that) and that’s just stupid.
    Of course it’s better to have companies support LGBTQ+ rights, stand up for it and show pride flags, normalizing support and acceptance (and also helping people that are insecure with their own identity), even if it’s just because they want to get publicity for it, than have them hate on minorities and spread discrimination.

    Maybe as that was my first association, that makes my initial perception of this different. Because when I just looked the image, I thought it to be a bit cringy but something generally good to symbolize that you’re against racism.
    When I read your comment and try to get your point of view, I could imagine that you think / assume it’s very pretentious to them to pose in ridiculous seriousness and then not really do anything meaningful / essentially just doing this for the popularity. I could get such a thought, but I don’t even know who they are and couldn’t just judge whether this photo was something fake like that.

      I explained very clearly what I want them to do. If they are not going to be sincere don’t even bother in the first place. When it’s fake and pandering everybody can tell. Fakeness is worse then nothing at all.

      Which is, again, exactly what you’re doing. You’re being insincere. You’re an instigator. You came along and tried to turn my comment into something else so that you could show that you’re the shining example of morality.

      Which you are not. You are nothing but a negative presence right now.

      Which is why, to be perfectly blunt, I didn’t read all the bullshit you just posted because it’s going to be more crap. I’m done with you. Respond if you want but, to be perfectly blunt, negativity like yours is simply beneath me and I will not bother to read another word you type.

          I criticized corporations and the government for pandering bullshit. He came along and tried to falsely claim that is me saying they should say we won’t be doing anything about racism.

          You really don’t see the difference there? You don’t see how there’s a big difference between criticizing false bullshit from a corporation and trying to tell a person that, basically, they are pro racism for saying that?

          Yes, right now, I am meeting his negativity with negativity I will admit that. Because I’m just so sick of people like this. They see a comment and try so hard to twist it so that they can show how amazingly moral they are.

          There was absolutely no reason to try and falsely twist my comment other than the fact that he is an instigator. It’s that simple.

        Wow. Maybe this is short enough to read: I was sincere the whole time. I explained how I got to my conclusions and tried to understand your point of view. You are constantly just insulting me without any base and not trying to understand or even read what I thought. If anything is a negative presence, then it’s you. Just unempathetic, contemptuous and not even thinking that your judgement could be wrong.
