One time it wasn’t a bigot, but an old guy taking creepshots of college girls on the light rail

Edit: If you’re going to argue against my meme, then why don’t you tell me what you expect me to do when I see someone hurling epithets and slurs against brown people or trans people, or homophobes calling me a “faggot” and spitting at me? Just sit there on my hands like a useless log?

And moreover, if you’ve come here from other instances for the sole purpose of calling me names, I’m going to report that shit and message your instance admins. There is NOTHING about my post or comments that is attacking or insulting anyone, unless you’re a creep or a bigot.

I’m not going to sit idly by while others cause harm.

Remember to always stand up for what’s right. Ignore the ignorant people who tell you not to. They’re part of the problem.

This is an essential part of mutual aid

        Why don’t you go stand up for bigots and creeps somewhere else

        Also, you’re breaking your instance’s code of conduct. I haven’t attacked you.

          Last time you posted this, you got mob-ruled out. This is what you’re advocating for, what’s the problem? I’d love to have a real discussion about this with you, because we probably agree, it’s just that you’re preaching rather than arguing. I think you’re hurting the cause more than you’re helping it, Sir.

            Hot take: Oppression and bigotry = bad

            Since “mob rule” is a gross misrepresentation of what I’m talking about, I’ve nothing to say in response

            You are an impolite, uncivil status quo defending troll who followed me to this instance after I migrated here with the express goal of escaping this type of unprovoked negativity and harassment

            You are welcome to reread my post and comments. They’re easily understood.

              I would you respect a lot more if you’d just own your opinion instead of pussyfooting around it. It’s mob rule, and it can work if you’ve nurtured a culture with good moral values. I won’t give you any more nuggets, but maybe you’d get less pushback in the future if you actually tried to explain your position instead of calling anyone who dares put question marks on your posts a bigot status-quoist.

                I don’t believe in mob justice though. That’s a gross and deliberate mischaracterization of my post.

                  Then what is it? You haven’t explained it at all. You’ve just been calling everyone a bigot for not agreeing with you.
