Hey, fuckface, what’s with the hate crimes crack in your comedians thread? Are you just not trying to hide your trolling now? Were the answers so far too reasonable, so you have to kick the beehive? Asshole. ---

You think? The only reason to use that is to cause an over-reaction, and the only reason for that is trolling. I wish you would refocus that thread, because it doesn’t look like there’s any there there, just some vague worry that someone somewhere might face some negative consequences for saying something stupid. Maybe you’ve learned something? Maybe you now realize that cancel culture is not really a big thing and you should stop reading news sources designed to make you indignant and angry. ---
