"I'm not saying that the people who disagree with me are bigots and use gay slurs, I'm just saying that the people who disagree with me use the exact same arguments as bigots and homophobes! You know, major difference!"Just to reiterate- if you've ever had to deal with, you know, real life bigots ... people who attack you for the way you look, or they way you live your life .... If you've ever dealt with people who can do a lot more harm than just words ...then seeing someone glibly compare people who are disagreeing with them over a silly competition on the internet that a company accidentally used the wrong software from Australia evinces a lack of seriousness and a desire to use intemperate analogies.So, again, not someone worth conversing with. But that's me. I tend to be a little sensitive about people invoking homophobia and racism to make petty points. TLDR; if you're going to be introducing comparisons togay slurs, or racism ... maybe it should be about something serious and not for the purpose of "winning" a stupid internet argument? Especially on a board largely for the discussion of unicorns and fireballs.</blockquote>
