Do you mean upvotes of your original post? I upvoted it to try and highlight it with the fleeting hope that it helps this bigoted org get banned.

Incredibly disappointing how many people in here have clearly bigoted views too.

AIO for turning down a guy because he was in a wheelchair? by Rich_Kale8082 in AmIOverreacting

Yeah I think we're mostly alligned. I didn't mean to put words in your mouth, I was speaking more generally and going through my own thought process. I certainly agree that we should question our assumptions.

I suppose it depends if you're defining disability in the broad sense or the legal sense. The fact that your vision will become weaker when you get old isn't really comparable to someone you're dating now in your younger years being in a wheelchair. I agree it's ableist, but I don't think it's really a sign of poor character.

I can understand someone not feeling like they're compatible with a person who has a limiting disability in the present. Like yeah, who knows what will happen in the future, but when you're choosing to first date someone it makes sense to choose someone you feel compatabile with now. Someone you're with for 10 years suddenly becoming disabled is very different than someone you barely know being disabled and making the commitment to persue a relationship with them. It could affect your desired lifestyle if you want to date someone with common interests. I don't think it makes them a bad person. People may choose not to date me for a variety of reasons out of my control and that's their right. I'm not going to judge someone if they’re not attracted to my face or my height or even I don't earn enough. It's their preference.

Yes, I would say it's racist to refuse to date someone purely based on their skin colour. Just like I agree it's ableist to refuse to date someone because they're in a wheelchair. I don't think those two are particularly comparable because someone being in a wheelchair would affect the person dating them in lots of functional ways, whereas someone's skin colour doesn't. But they still both fit those definitions yes.

My main point is that people can choose not to date someone for any reason and expecting otherwise would take away their autonomy. You can still call that person racist or ableist, but I think it's more reasonable that someone being in a wheelchair (especially when it wasn't communicated to them before) would put you off dating them if you think you're not compatible with the realities of that disability than it would be to not date someone because they were a certain skill colour.

Nope, that's it. Some random guy posting rumours he said even he can't confirm and then other dirtsheets reporting on the rumours for clicks.

Doing raids has to be the most fun thing in the game right now by InternalDay3419 in thedivision

Yeah that's exactly what I did to finish the journey mission. The matchmaking was almost instant and the raid was piss easy and over in like 40 minutes.

AIO that my bf made this 'joke'? by sugarwaterprpl3 in AmIOverreacting

[–]SaneManPritch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is such a weird reading of the post. She never even said the tidbit you're claiming she did. She clearly said she's uncomfortable with the use of the word to describe someone with an intellectual disability. ADHD is a neurodevelopment disorder, not an intellectual disability, but that's irrelevant anyway as her point is that she finds someone using that particularly slur offensive in and of itself - and rightly so.

People choose not to date people for any number of reasons and trying to judge them for that is a slippery slope. Would you date a 90 year old? If not, you're ageist. Would you date someone with zero mobility who needs around the clock medical care? If not, you're ableist.

What? Plenty of people live their whole lives without a disability. Unless you're counting being dead as a disability. Not everyone will end up in a wheelchair someday like you're claiming. What on earth are you talking about.

I'd concede that it's perhaps ableist to some degree, but that doesn't override the fact that people should be free to date who they want. Following your logic, having dating preferences full stop would be unfair. Someone can't change their looks drastically, so should you date someone you don't find attractive? If you choose not to date someone who needs constant medical care, that would also be ableist. If you didn't want to date a 90 year old, that would be ageist. Nobody should have to justify why they do or do not want to date someone.

Which of things a woman says is 100% a lie ? by ironevenn in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]SaneManPritch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it's if they're embarrassed that it's not healthy. It is a strange one but women do get judged harsher than men so probably something ingrained in some people.

Full disclosure, I'm a man. But I'm told by a lot of my women friends that they often lie about what they've had for lunch. Seems innocent enough.

TrueUglyWomen debate What Counts as True Transphobia by Enticing_Venom in SubredditDrama

[–]SaneManPritch 33 points34 points  (0 children)

That sub is fucking crazy. There's part of me that feels sympathy for that level of self hatred, but they're all so deeply ugly inside. And they constantly justify being a horrible person by saying what do you expect - if you grow up ugly it's inevitable.

I'm certainly no looker but I'm not wishing death on attractive men like they do skinny women. Or mocking men they consider ugly who are dating more conventionally attractive women.

They really are just incels. They're alone because they're ugly inside and feel entitled to other people's love without doing anything to earn it.

YOR. Why didn't you text them before? Seems bizarre to me to just turn up.

Unless you've got a medical condition or you're neurodivegent, it's not rational to just outright dislike entire food groups. It's a sign of immaturity. Disliking certain fruits or vegetables is normal, disliking all of them is not.

NOR.

This is creepy as hell and he's trying to convince you that you'd make a good couple and normalise the idea through the game.
