Welcome to /c/Tumblr

All the chaos of Tumblr, without actually going to Tumblr.

Rule 1: Be Civil, Not CursedThis isn’t your personal call-out post.

  • No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
  • No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
  • Keep it fun and weird, not mean-spirited

Rule 2: No Forbidden PostsSome things belong in the drafts forever. That means:

  • No spam or scams
  • No porn or sexually explicit content
  • No illegal content (don’t make this a federal case)
  • NSFW screenshots must be properly tagged

If you see a post that breaks the rules, report it so the mods can handle it. Otherwise just reblog and relax.

Did you skip over the part of it being completely unnecessary? Insults are a part of human communication, you can't just erase them, so of course it makes sense to classify some as worse than others. It's a fundamental part of insults even.

You literally just argued, verbatim, that because being called gay in isolated cases can be just as bad as a trans person being misgendered, that makes deliberately misgendering and calling someone gay comparable.

That was your verbatim argument. And you've suddenly moved the goal posts to "of course it makes sense to classify some as worse than others"

Yea ok reading comprehension is just a losy cause with you lmao

But I think in individual cases the "i thought you were gay" can be just as bad, so I do think it's entirely comparable.

Literally. Verbatim. Who do you think you're kidding here dude ?
