Wow, that was the most asinine response to anything, ever. Defending rights of those to be intolerant is crucial - I grant that. "Slippery slope" of making some neo-nazi shithead's credo illegal translating into thoughtcrime and dudes wearing dead baby masks tying my hands with duct tape at midnight. But, fuck, have you not realized that the peeps on tranceaddict might be representing a signinfigant countercultural movement and by waving the black flag of homophobia, misogyny, etc. etc. is basically fucking yourselves in terms of actually getting anything accomplished? This board, seriously, has a rich history of being dominated by close minded, patrilineal squarefucks that morally circle jerk each other by fearing queers, women, or anything else that might call into question their unflinching and usually extremely conservative self-applied labels. Does the real possibility of organizing resistance to the ever encroaching reality of drug/lifestyle criminalization, political disinfranchisement, and generally being fucked good and proper by the powers that be continually escape everyone that would rather talk about how they're "still scared of gays" and therefore alienate a group of people that essentailly share the same political and social aspirations? Fuck, can it with the bigoted bullshit because it's killing the vibe and whatever small (and continually shriking) chance that change is and will be possible as soon as people pull their heads out of their prejudiced asses. Paix.
Oh yeah, and someone should give the big high five to whoever organized Mutek this year. Fucking A. |
Jimmy. As I alluded to in my preface to my philosophical rambling about my and this board's "preference" for intolerance before proceeding to "rationally" justify it based on suspect logic and debatable morals, 'twas satire.

In other words, leg yanking, arm twisting, ball jockeying at its finest. And although you seem to have missed that, and proceeded to engage in your rant of a response rather than easily rebutting my "argument" using its own "logic", I did laugh my ass off upon reading your reply. Nevertheless, good to have you on the board
