    Of course “bigoted” is in the eyes of the beholder. And those judging have no real idea if a person joking around is actually a bigot.

      Of course it’s in the eyes of the beholder, like anything is, but from the reaction of others, it seems like most people in this thread agree with me or have a similar viewpoint, so I think it’s worth considering why people had that impression. If it’s not your views coming out or your intention, fix what was pointed out and there’s that.


      they are on a mission to impose their views on anyone who disagrees with them. What a sad way to go through life.

      Nevertheless, I don’t know about you but this doesn’t look like a joke, nor does your initial comment, as it seems you’re taking what you said quite seriously, I don’t see why you’d say that if you weren’t.

      But anyways, bigoted jokes are just that: bigoted. Not that great of a defence. Nobody has a problem against “joking around”, it’s more about what your comment was full of.

        thanks for encouraging me to “fix” it so I am perfectly aligned with you and “most people in this thread” I wouldn’t want to be able to think for myself
