"I want you to respect the fact that I don't want people like you to exist and hate everything about you"

Why are lgbt expected to respect people who don't respect them? I never understood that logic

I grew up in a land and time where respect was earned, not given, where common decency was the expected norm and a disagreement over a minor matter with no broad relevance didn't affect very much. I've had shouting matches with close friends escalating to threats of mortal harm, did we engage in them or think less of one another? No, we concluded our business, had tea and carried on as if it never happened because that's what normal people who don't go out of their way to hate people do.

Honestly, society two hundred years ago may have been backwards as seen from the modern era but their intellect far surpasses what can be seen today.

can you explain what you mean by "wokeness" lol

Everyone wanted to call themselves woke about some silly perceived prejudice, but they are actually asleep to the class war that is going on which has nothing to do with race or gender. They're all "useful idiots" to the ruling class as the perfect distraction to keep everyone busy with.

Indeed. The purpose being to keep everyone divided so no one pays attention to the small group of people that are actually oppressing everyone. If one day people could come to accept each other's differences and unite against the true oppressor, we would have a much better world. But instead we're all distracted and at each other's throats over things like this while the ruling class laughs. It is not the 'woke' side or the 'bigoted' side that is keeping us all poor. But I guess this would make me sound conspiratorial, so I'll get off my soapbox.

I see it as a label for a group of people that took what used to be racism on the personal level, then reversed it, made the racism systemic instead of just personal, and think they're doing the world good.

Also literally EVERYTHING I have seen under the "banner" of this group or a likeminded group has just never been good. A game? The game usually sucks. Movie? The movie is trash. Show? The show ends up getting canceled. Government leader? They end up being the worst we've had in decades. Sports? They ruin what used to be fair and turned it into a mockery of what it once was. Everyone wanted to call themselves woke about some silly perceived prejudice, but they are actually asleep to the class war that is going on which has nothing to do with race or gender. They're all "useful idiots" to the ruling class as the perfect distraction to keep everyone busy with.

No one needed to make racism systemic Hon, it's been there all along.
The rest is just indistinct rambling.

Tolerance is a social contract. It is a social protection. It means "accept people however they are".

Don't need your kind here.

Paradox of tolerance is a thing
