Yes, your country is a fucking armpit for a number of reasons (I think at last count 347089088 reasons). But it’d be real cool if bigotry wasn’t one of them.
The good bits of the planet are the bits of the arctic not controlled by Russia or the USA. I’m sure the Canadian arctic is just as nice as the Scandinavian arctic.
thank you for the open and communiticative moderation ; it’s a breath of fresh air in a ban/censorship hungry internet.
It wasn’t meant as a terribly serious comment, any more than a dystopia’s boringness, is meant to be a completely serious idea.
I don’t believe there is such a thing as random victims. Also, all violence is happening more than it should. Picking and choosing which identities, situations, and thus people ; qualify as dystopian, can be complicated in that way.
However, light heartedness, humor, and framing things as boring, can be a powerful and effective response to otherwise dire circumstances. Which is part of the value of this community, imo.
My ultimate hope is we can start to find ways to unify and create solutions, but your guess is as good as mine on how to do that.
Talking instead of banning, blocking, and censoring is a good start though, so thank you for that!
ok but this happens to all kinds of americans dialy for no reason
They are called a faggot and then are beaten bloody for it?
cursed at, beaten unconscious, robbed, and often murdered.

Agreed

The reason so many people down voted you and this got reported so many times is likely a combination of:
It happening more than it should, which makes it a fit for this sub.
Her identity was the reason she was attacked, she wasn’t a random victim.
I don’t think you’re actually trying to be bigoted, but figured if I wasn’t going to remove your comment I should at least try to clear things up.

Oh, well I guess rampant violence excuses their bigotry
lol. i personally prefer no violence.
So then why excuse the violence?
I never excuese violence.
That sounds very much like excusing the violence through normalcy
normalcy is no excuse for violence
Huh?

So what? Does that make it better?
no, but it doesnt make it unique
So what? Does something need to be unique to be awful? And who even said it was unique?
generally people don’t post about common violence like car accidents, or murder in poor neighborhoods.
but of course it’s an aweful story, and fits the sub.
Idk man, I’m sure I’ve seen posts about “common violence” before
could be 🧐
