I encourage advocation. Just... please try not to trample bystanders in the process.

Go back and re-read my post, and then please tell me, how was I trampling anyone?

I'm just trying to make sense of everything.

This isn't what "trying to make sense of everything" looks like. That would consist of asking questions. You aren't asking questions though, you're putting in a large amount of effort to tell me that actually, I'm the problem.

Well... sometimes people just don't understand each other, too. It was nice talking to you. I didn't ask any questions because you made yourself quite clear in other comments. You seem to be the type that makes timid people feel unseen, and I don't vibe with that.

By trying to make sense of everything, I don't mean the small fishbowl you seem to be seeing here. I mean humanity. Maybe I'm just insane.

Well, good luck to you. Pick out and reply to everything you don't like in life (as you did here) and trample past everything else. That just sounds like stress to me, and I have enough of that without seeing daggers where there are none.

As I said earlier, my initial comment was short, clearly a statement of personal opinion and not aggressive. You have responded with walls of text greatly exaggerating the content of my comment, and made multiple accusations against me, simply because you don't like the fact I challenged a joke that comes across as homophobic to me.

You suggest that you also want to challenge homophobia, but somehow, the mild way in which I've done it here is still going too far for you, and warrants multiple accusations against my character.

I hope when you wake up, you can look at this conversation with fresh eyes and re-evaluate your role in it.
