Homophobia, what a laugh riot. What's next? Are you gonna start posting something horrific about the holocaust for your own bit of fun?
How about Palestine? There's some joke mileage there surely.
ummm, no man i don't find that stuff funny. that's not what i said was the fun part of this thread. what i
do like to have fun with, "in my own replies" as i said, is pointing out dumb comments like THIS:
chairman_hall wrote:Pro-homophobia means you support (not actively contest) discrimination/fear/aversion of/to homosexuals, homophobia means you are discriminatory/fearful/distasteful towards homosexuals.
and i suppose there is also a difference between people who are "pro-racism" and people who are "racist"? would you draw up the same distinction?
let's translate the analogy: the people who support discrimination of other races (by analogy, the "pro-racist" ones), would they be somehow different than those who are racist?
yes, noting dumb stuff like that, is
funny to me. it's funny to me that you (along with a few others) are not the brightest lightbulb. that you would dream up distinguished definitions to separate "pro-homophobia" from "homophobic". i've been having what you would call a "laugh riot" with
those sorts of things throughout the whole thread.
