I literally just said it’s not an insult. Don’t reply if you’re not going to read my comment.
Slapping those you've insulted will not convince them you were right.
Stop letting other people‘s opinions live rent free in your head. That was my point. If you get insulted because of somebody else’s opinion that’s your problem not their problem.
Worse though, saying that underprivileged is an insult is an insult to everybody who is underprivileged.
You're advocating abuse and blaming your victims for being insulted by your insults.
They're different than you; their differences don't warrant your abuse.
No, I’m talking about the same people you’re talking about. I don’t have any victims. You are the one who has friends who would be “offended by that epithet”. And since you aren’t taking this conversation seriously I will bid you good day.
We are talking about the same people.
I support their lifestyle and worldview; you are insulting and threatening them with violence.
I just said we were talking about the same people. You seriously aren’t even reading my comments or even trying to talk about the same thing that I’m talking about. Goodbye.
I'm reading your comments and responding directly to your stated viewpoints.
You aren’t even trying to respond, nor are you reading that I said this conversation is over. For real go away, unless you are willing to discuss how insulting it is to underprivileged people to be insulted by the word underprivileged.
I'm reading your comments and directly responding to your stated viewpoints using your language.
Your own language and viewpoints upsetting you may be worth examination.
You haven’t even used the words that I’ve used. Seriously go away or I’m going to block you.
I am directly responding to your own stated viewpoints using your own language.
Your own language upsets you. Worth examination.
Are you a bot or a troll? Either way stop responding to me.
I'm a traveler.
You might want to stop reaching out to folks you don't want a response from.
Go away.
Why are you still asking me questions and talking to me?
Where do you think a Lemmy user you are interacting with on Lemmy will go?
You understand that that’s a two-way street right? You don’t get to keep responding and then ask why other people are still responding.
But here’s the bottom line; your original comment currently has more down votes than up votes, you can either admit that saying that underprivileged is an insult is an insult to the underprivileged or you can keep being a dumbass but those are your only two options.
You're messaging me specifically and asking me questions. I'm answering your messages.
If you don't want answers, see what happens when you stop messaging me.
It’s so interesting to me how you keep choosing the dumbass option.
Now you’re just reaching, this is a public forum nobody is messaging anybody. You decided to act like a dumbass in a public forum and now you can’t handle being called out for it.
Yes, you are repeatedly messaging me and asking questions on a public forum known as Lemmy.
I am answering your messages.
These aren’t messages, they’re posts. You still aren’t responding to what I said. So you’re not answering anything.
You reach out to someone, they answer you.
Cause. Effect.
Where? I don’t see a response.
That's alright.
If it’s alright then stop posting. But now you’re also just changing your comments after I respond to them so you’re not even trying to post here in good faith what is even the point of continuing to post then?
You keep asking questions, i like answering questions.
Then answer them. I just reread this whole thread you have not once actually addressed my point. Address it or stop responding.
Stop calling for a response if you don't want a response.
I do want a response. You are not responding you are being intentionally obtuse.
You don't like the responses you receive, but you insist on reaching out.
I don’t like it when people waste other people’s time intentionally because they’re butthurt over their comment not being received the way they wanted it to. If you would like to actually respond then by all means do so but please stop calling your obtuse bullshit a response.
If you do not like these responses, you can stop asking for them.
I never asked for you to be obtuse.
You go find whoever accused you of that and let them know!
