I can't stop dwelling on it.
I can't stop thinking about all that I lost.
Nine years, I had that account. Not all of them were good years, and I probably came close to losing it a couple of times. When I was never accused of identity based hate until after I came out of the closet.
Talking about the things straight people do to the LGBT isn't welcome, as it turns out. And if you do talk about it, you need to watch your step, and make sure you tell those sensitive little snowflakes that you don't mean all straight people. Otherwise, they'll dogpile on you, even in what was supposed to be a bastion of liberal thought like Reddit.
Have to make sure you stroke their delicate egos as you tell the truth. Or better yet, simply don't tell it. Nobody wants to hear about that sort of thing. And if you break that rule, well, you get banned for life for attacking people's identities.
Because that makes perfect sense.
There are messages in my inbox still, calling me a f@g and telling me I'm going to hell. Nobody ever suspended the guy who wrote those.
But one complaint from me about the endless crying and screaming and shouting, "NOT ALL STRAIGHTS"? Well, that's just unacceptable.
And so ends the illustrious career of u/darkmagickan.
Another squeaky wheel silenced so that the homophobes could go on doing what they do in peace.
