@boudinMan Oh, that conservative humor.
boudinMan · 61-69, M
@Graylight everything is about race and political affiliation to you. labeling is your forte'.

@boudinMan The fuck are you talking about?

@SW-User nobody wants to ban gays... that's what i'm talking about, now move along.
SW-User
@boudinMan Right, homophobia totally doesn’t exist.

@SW-User i don't know anyone who's frightened of gay people and i'm conservative.
SW-User
@boudinMan I don’t know anyone who likes Nickel Back, but they still sell records.

@SW-User how clever. no one is trying to ban gay people except in your mind.
SW-User
@boudinMan Ever hear of gay bashing?

@SW-User ever hear of conservative bashing?
SW-User
@boudinMan What’s your point? What’s that have to do with it?
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@boudinMan Hey, I'm not the one who pays attention to race political affiliation. I think that shit is pretty meaningless.
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@boudinMan If you don't know anyone frightened of gays, good. But unfortunately there's a lot of them out there. I'm not even gay myself but I get told all too often that "the days are coming to ban heterosexual marriage" and "gay imperialism is a threat to our way of life."

@SW-User my point is conservatives are not trying to ban gay people. duh!
SW-User
@boudinMan How does the existence of “conservatives bashing” demonstrate that?
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@boudinMan Maybe YOU and your conservative friends aren't. And that's good. But the people considered to be the vanguard of modern conservative values certainly are.
boudinMan · 61-69, M
@BlueMetalChick and so from that you extrapolate that all conservatives want to ban gay people? that's quite a leap.
SW-User
@boudinMan Who said all? The fuck are you talking about?
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@boudinMan Well, kinda, yeah. I mean I know obviously that "conservative" isn't a blanket set of beliefs but when meeting people who self identify as such and who say that stuff regularly, it does affect my perception.
boudinMan · 61-69, M
@BlueMetalChick most of my friends are conservative and none have said anything that even resembles that.
SW-User
@boudinMan What’s your point? Are you suggesting that she is making it up?
boudinMan · 61-69, M
@SW-User since you're unable to understand, my point is that is NOT the intention of conservatives in general. just like i'm sure it is not the intention of liberals in general to do away with the 2nd amendment, tho there certainly are some who espouse that. there are plenty of other examples.
SW-User
@boudinMan You are arguing against something that no one is suggesting then.
boudinMan · 61-69, M
@SW-User go away, you're not making sense.
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@boudinMan She has a point. You were trying to pretend like I was in favor of conservative people being censored earlier even though I don't believe that.
