!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.
Our Rules:
1. Keep it civil.
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.
2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.
I should not need to explain this one.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.
Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

Its working real well in America right now... Almost like being a prick to people for "great fun" had negative consequences or something... But lets imagine someone said "Making the gays uncomfortable is great fun. :D"... That would be bigotry, right? Yet for some weird reason, you feel totally fine and safe to say something like that... How odd...
Get back to me when straight people start facing systematic oppression. Until then, kindly go fuck yourself.
lol Ah, yes. The excuses. "Its ok for me to be a bigot because reasons!!!!". And then you wonder why you get that hate back. What a spoon eating cunt you are.
Cry a little more, you whiny inbred twatwaffle.
Man, they ruined a perfectly good bum when they put teeth in your mouth.
"They called me a fascist bigot, so I had to start acting like one!" is the argument you're accidentally making here.
Yeah, thats pretty much how it works. If you treat people like theyre pieces of shit long enough, they start acting like pieces of shit. Its fucking basic psychology.
If everyone calls you a dick for long enough, it will chip away at your self esteem. Eventually, in order to try to improve your situation, you'll reach out to something bigger than your self. Thats happens every single day for things MUCH less than treating people like they are fascists. For most people, the thing they reach out for is a football team or something like that. But for others, it can be something much worse. Like race, or religion, of political parties. People often ask "How is racism still a thing?" Well, this is how. Low self esteem. And it happens every day with out the help of fuckwits like the guy I responded to, who has clearly already made their choice to be a bigot.
Theres never any excuse to hate a person because of their skin colour, their sex/gender, or who they love. And if youre trying to make an excuse, you might not be the hero of the story you think you are.
Or... perhaps some honest self-examination is in order?
Or perhaps, its fucking text book? Christ, pick up a book and actually read it sometime, instead of just getting all your information from facebook.
Did you just now blamed gay people for what's happening in US? For real?
