Now you're just being silly. Did you know that one of the defining traits of a psychopath is having remarkable empathy? It's how they mimic emotional mannerisms and emotionally motivated actions very convincingly. Before you start putting words in my mouth, no I am not a psychopath, but I'm just letting you know that you're incorrect assumptions about empathy completely nullify what you just said. I can put myself in anyone's shoes, and I'm honestly totally fine with people believing whatever they want to believe. I have my trains of thoughts and ideals, and the only reason I ever argue them is
a) because hearing different things is good for people, variety is the spice of life
b) because there might be the minute possibility that someone actually changes their mind to follow what I think, and of course I'd be happy if more people in the world thought like me, and that's true of everyone.
Another huge block of text that has nothing to do with anything I said.
It's impossible to respond to something like this because you're derailing the conversation so much. What the hell are you even saying? Empathy isn't always good because psychopaths have a lot of it?
It's like you have a point, but instead of making it you conjure up some nonsense comparison that has no bearing on what I'm trying to say. The closest thing to an argument in what you just typed is "now you're just being silly", and that's pretty sad.
Your words are pretty much unintelligible, and it sucks that this is your only way of arguing because it gets old fast (inb4 STOP POSTING THEN).
It is your fault for being so rude. Honestly, I don't even know why I'm being so well mannered right now considering how unbelievably classless you're being, but then that's probably because you're on the lower rungs of society.
Are you suggesting that I live in the ghetto or something? My god you're dull.
It's funny because you can't accept that the reason I'm reacting the way I am is because you're ideas are completely ridiculous and hypocritical, rather, it must be because I'm...poor? LOL.
Yes I know that it indirectly supports oppression of homosexuals, and I'm really not bothered.
Exactly. You can't post an opinion like this and then get mad when people respond negatively to it. You don't care that people are oppressed as long as you get what you want? Yeah, sorry to burst your bubble but this type of viewpoint neither spices up life, nor is it the type of viewpoint that others should be convinced of. You're kidding yourself if you don't see how many terrible things have happened simply because so many idiots think like this.
Oh look I jumped the gun.
And also, it is totally relevant, by saying there's no relevance means that marriage between two people of the same gender should be categorized as something entirely different, and such differentiation is the definition of discrimination.
Nice try, but really? This is not what either of us were talking about, don't jump to this at the last second as if it was what you were talking about all along. In no way does saying there is no relevance mean that. Of course it shouldn't be classified as something different, nobody is saying it should.
You know what you are? You are a morally upright libdouche with his eyes sewn shut who blindly follows the voice of apparent free thought and liberty, and instead of being open to all channels and trying to perhaps, I dunno, be civil when trying to disagree, you decide to be insulting and enforce your ****ing opinion on something as a law of science.
I've been called worse. Unfortunately for you, what you think I am has no bearing on the fact that your views and opinions in regards to this issue are backwards, childish, and ********.
You know the only thing I resent about being gay is that I have people like you advocating my place in society as equal.
There's that gigantic ego again. Always about you isn't it?
First of all, how do you know I'm not gay? In case you haven't noticed, I don't parade my personal preferences around for attention like you do.
Second of all, you're demonizing me because I think gay people should be able to get married?
You're demonizing me because I don't think a person should be discriminated against because of something as trivial as their sexual preference? The ****?
Like I already said, this goes way beyond whether or not gay people, or any people, are allowed to get married. In fact, you might even be able to say that the essence of this issue has nothing to do with gay people at all, even though gay people are at the core of the issue. The problem is that people are oppressed and things need to change. Whether or not somebody is allowed to have the same freedoms as others is not something that should be "allowed" (as in handed to oppressed people by those in power in a "fine, here you go, but only cause we allow it" manner), and it's not something that should be voted on. This issue raises a huge moral question about the legitimacy of our political system and its capacity to handle this type of thing without violating individual rights.
Just because you aint even bovvered doesn't mean that it's not a huge issue that should be on the minds of intelligent, thinking people everywhere. That includes straight people. In fact, I find your "oh, whatever" attitude to be insulting, not only to me and to people I care for dearly, but to yourself. It's a perfect example of infantile behavior and it's pathetic to see you try and paint your viewpoint as something that should be taken seriously.
You should be ashamed of yourself.
