That's because groups define themselves by who they aren't. So they probably were and still are having fun bonding over racist jokes, unless they changed that for some other group that bonds over being super woke about issues. Sorry to break it to you like this. Also most people understand they are joking about offensive stereotypes and make a difference between those and actual human beings. That's why often people who should be offended are indeed not. Maybe stereotypes aren't important anymore. I guess it's fine to be LGBT positive if you guys have the energy and time, you do you. You have my complete disinterest as long as my c#male privileges are unaffected and the wokeness doesn't get too overbearing. e. People's "just and equal society" also sounds like a couple gulags too many to me. how is not using offensive or problematic language equivalent to a gulag? how is it comparable to a "gestapo environment" as you said in your other post? that's a ridiculous comparison and your use of hyperbole undermines any effort to take your criticism of this topic seriously if it's such an imposition to not use the N-word, or call people gay, or not make racist jokes about all asians looking the same, perhaps you should examine your use of language. no one is expecting it to immediately disappear but you should not be dismissive and defensive when people point out that this behavior is problematic and should be changed | ||

My exam was to go from 10:00-13:00, but I did my oral at 14:20 or something rofl. Ah well, that's done. Think it went alright, but we'll see. Now to eat lunch, and prepare an experiment for tomorrow. are you good at oral? | ||

People are already saying context and audience matters, I don't think that's where we started so now I'm confused. forums are hecking trash (sorry for swearing) #freedaryl | ||

I think it's safe to say that's a little trollish  On April 13 2018 03:28 Gosi wrote: oh well in my opinion context matters and I won't get offended if someone calls something gay or pulls a homo joke, and the other bi/homo people I know are quite good at taking the piss out of themselves too. Maybe I'm just damaged from growing up in hockey culture where you'll hear everything that could possibly be seen as offensive and you quickly learn it doesn't really matter unless you make it matter. When it gets confrontational and physical on the other hand it's obviously not okay. Imo it's perfectly fair to say context matters. And that goes both ways. Context matters for those addressed as well as innocent bystanders that are subject of the conversation (to stick to the fairly obvious examples of LGBT people, Muslims, Jews [Jew is a common pejorative term on schoolyards here since as far as I can remember]. Context matters shall not be used as a blanket excuse to allow hateful speech, as much as freedom of expression and the human right to self-determination shall not be a cover for censorship. The question as to where the line is to be drawn is a very good and important one. Though I freely admit I have no answer to it, I'm rather certain that only through discourse as well as trial and error we will at some point come to an agreement, as a society, + Show Spoiler + (I'm using very broad terms here, yep, sorry. probably somewhere a little sooner than someplace else and to slightly different degrees) Nonetheless, as victimized groups (see above) gain means to propagate their voice, be it through greater visibility or good lobbying or a popular / powerful person of that group, their vulnerabilities, troubles, struggle with being stigmatized, used as an insult, being seen as outsiders, curable disease, etc., only then and for example through having mirrored or told the experience of being a part of that group, can we grasp what it means having your sexual orientation shouted by 5.000 happy, drunk, enraged hockey fans at the referee as he, of course, was in the wrong again. "What a fag, right? Oh yes, sorry, you're one of those, I forgot. Sorry." I don't think you have to necessarily criminalize the past, though I've not thought much of people in the stadium shouting insults at the opponent. And disdained those making ape noises and gestures towards black players. A big get the fuck out of your god damn comfort zone you fucking prick, to them. (Phrasing it that way of course would be entirely justified, but not productive. When ever has telling the oppressor he's oppressing been productive, right?)

Removed hero class specific perks, the bonuses now affect all classes. Doesn't this make the early game even worse or am I actually the only dota player in the universe who actually clicks on heroes and abilities and calculates what it takes to kill someone at a given time. I suppose a lot of the changes in dota that I hate have been towards more instinctual gameplay; masking the numbers, adding the talents and other variables. | ||

DLCs are two expansions that can be played after finishing the main quest line with no detriment whatsoever. one can be started at about mid way to the end boss. They are not crucial for the BotW experience in my book. [ OH AND HAVE FUN AND GOOD LUCK DURING SHRIMPING SEASON! May this one be even better than the last! | ||

Thx You can buy DLCs later no problem, some of the DLC stuff can affect your game right away from almost as soon as your game starts but you can apply DLC to any save file even if it was made without DLC | ||

(Phrasing it that way of course would be entirely justified, but not productive. When ever has telling the oppressor he's oppressing been productive, right?) I agree. These discussions are tricky though because they become very US centric while the LGBT community has been represented well in Sweden during my life time (no one gave a shit about religion here until recently) so it's difficult to relate. My hockey anecdote was from a players perspective (trash talk gets pretty ruthless and overall locker room culture is pretty dumb lol). Not like sport fans shout fag to people in harmony or that you can go around and do it in general, that's not okay of course because it becomes confrontational. On the note of religion, jews are getting shafted hard thanks to our imported population. It's fucked up. | ||
