No DNI but here’s a reminder of stuff I won’t debate:

  • Obviously racism, sexism, ableism, cissexism, homophobia, transphobia, colonialism, antisemitism, islamophobia, and antitheism is bad
  • Transphobia includes telling people they aren’t trans enough or they aren’t being trans in ‘the right way’, not respecting pronouns, etc.
  • Slur discourse is pushed by TERFs with intent to limit the acronym to LGBT, which would make it a lot easier for them to convince people to “drop the T”. TERFs really want us to define ourselves by same-sex attraction, rather than our opposition to cisheteronormativity. People are queer, get over it.
  • Aces/aros belong in the LGBTQ+ community. “Mspec lesbian” is a valid identity and to say otherwise is nbphobic. Pan/omni/poly/multisexual labels aren’t biphobic.
  • Sex workers need support. Stuff like FOSTA-SESTA hurts sex workers. TERFS and SWERFS are actively harming both trans and cis women
  • Sex positivity must include kink positivity. Your kinks don’t make you a bad person. Hurting others makes you a bad person.
  • Defending freedom of speech and artistic freedom also means defending speech and art you don’t like. The law is a blunt weapon and if we allow it to ban art and speech we deem bad, that will harm us too in the long run
  • Being banned from twitter because you were racist isn’t infringing on your rights.
  • Death penalty is never appropriate, regardless of the crime. You absolutely cannot trust the state to dish out corporal punishment.
  • Prison abolition is necessary
  • Abortion should always be an option, regardless of the reason.
  • Health care is good, gun control is good, taxing the rich is good. Dunno why this is a debate.
  • Being other/fiction/whatever-kin isn’t something you do, it’s something you are. If you knowingly misuse ‘kin terminology, I probably won’t like you.
  • Endogenic systems are real
  • Regulated hunting is good. That includes subsistence hunting, of course, but also most forms of trophy and big game hunting. Regulated hunting leads to healthy populations.
  • Killing plants and animals is neither an inherently good or bad action, and as long as you can justify why you did it, that’s fine. ‘Food’ is a justifiable reason. Doesn’t matter if the animals are harvested for meat or are crop harvest casualties, they die regardless, and that’s okay.
  • Exotic pet ownership should ideally be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. One person might be able to give a crocodile the perfect life. Another might not even be able to care for a stick bug. These are real life examples I’ve personally seen.
  • Land back. Free Palestine.

Please don’t send confrontational, provocative, or mean anon messages, I won’t respond. If you wanna stir up drama, at least have the courtesy to do it off anon.

i just think that smoking weed at concerts poll was rly annoying bc the question was "is it rude" but people were treating it like the only two options were "it's morally unconscionable in every situation and you deserve to go to jail if you do it even once" and "it's always ok everywhere and if you say it's not in the best of taste you're exactly the same as a fascist" and the whole thing made me feel like this
