      Inaction against intolerance is a form of action, is it not? “Bee kind” is not just a call to not be mean, it’s a call to act in kindness.

      I believe the poster is probably right in that it stirs more toward fostering acceptance rather than simply ignoring hate.

      It’s not compelled speech, per se—Beehaw users need to have an active role in order to make it the kind of place people want to bee.

          I was just commenting on that I don’t think that aggression against -lets call them- consevatives, neo-Nazi’s, right wingers, whatver, works or is wanted

          I’ve been nice to them and trying to politely educate them for over 20 years now, since W was in office. I’ve convinced a grand total of 2, and in the meantime, 30 million worse ones have arisen.

          Fuck them. I’m done assuming they only hate me because they’re uneducated. They hate me because they get off on hate, and all the education in the fucking world doesn’t matter to them. So I treat them like scum, and their arguments like jokes, because they are.

          Don’t like it? Too bad. Cry more, salty.

            The internet is expanding everyday. You and I are likely to stumble upon people from different regions and backgrounds, who some have no clue who liberals or conservatives are, but share great amount of that *phobia due to their upbringing and religion.

            My guess is that the “fuck them” attitude is even more useless towards them. They’re not crying at all because they don’t even interact with people they despise.

      I’d like to remind you that you don’t get to redefine words.

      Yeah I don’t think that’s what happened and definitely didn’t read it that way in the post.
