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.

If you give up on the world then don't cry when the world gives up on you and i you become more hostile to them, they will get more hostile to you.

You don't want things to become better, you just want revenge for whatever slights they did you

personally i think "murdering or wanting to murder queer people for being queer" is more than a "slight" and is fine to answer with "revenge". this sort of placation has never worked for any oppressed group in history—it's certainly not about to work for queer people—and you should probably not be here if people calling that placation out for what it is makes you like this.
