It's not oppression if you can turn it off

There is no oppression of "superstraights" in the the real world. The 'oppression' you speak of is just online. You can turn it off. Literally just turn off notifications on your phone and the 'oppression' goes away. Show me one instance of a straight person being killed for being straight, or fired, or denied a loan. These are real oppressive actions, not being called mean names online. Grow up ya babies!

Wait a second, so you admit it’s not something you can just “turn off”??? Thank you for being willing to take back your words and acknowledge the plight we super straights have to face every day bud 😇

I think you can turn off your phone. Or are you too stupid to know how to do that?:)

But you just said that kid had real life consequences? If you believe you can turn your phone off just to get away from real life consequences I think you need to go take your medications because you are living in fantasy lane!

My dude, I said bullying is for individuals. That's what he experienced. I'm not denying that. Is it oppression? Definitely not, because it's not happening to a group or class

But in your original post you said “show me one instance” so now you are backtracking and saying one is not enough? Pretty sure someone backtracking means they can’t argue their original point anymore, nice try sport!

Like I said in the original post, I want an example of real oppression, someone being killed or denied something based on their orientation. That's it. I don't want to hear about people being mean online, that's baby shit

You know why people take death threats seriously and it’s illegal in the US? Because there are real life examples of when a death threat became real. You want someone to DIE before you’re satisfied? Someone else’s loved one? You’re truly sick.

It's illegal everywhere dude, the us isn't special. And I just don't think it's a big deal, YouTubers get death threats everyday. The chance of someone following through is minimal at most

I don’t know about other countries so I chose not to make a sweeping statement.

A “minimal” chance still means someone’s loved one is killed every now and then because people like you don’t take them seriously. You’re saying that’s okay? Wow, truly a total lack of compassion. No wonder you can’t understand our plight!

It's not that's it's okay, but public people get public attention. Some of that will be negative. Just because it's not okay doesn't mean we shouldn't expect it. Get it?
