I mean topics like the Posie Parker visit to Wellington and the Parliament protests in Wellington that were impossible to discuss on Reddit without being shouted down.
I dunno. I feel like there was quite a lot of discussion of those events, for quite a long period of time. If you're wanting to support the anti-vaxers and hate-peddlers, on the other hand, yeah, I don't think we're going to be friends.
I would have left if it had kept up for any longer. Attracting all sorts from elsewhere to express overt transphobia. Not the friendly community vibe I was there for.
Discussion was only allowed from one side.
Yup. Decent people have no interest in debating whether or not people have the right to exist.
I'm happy to chat about that sort of stuff, as long as it's in good faith.
