The left is bullying the right, but becoming "Sexist, homophobic, islamaphobic, racist and transphobic" is a retarded way to fight back. Just be logical and resonable and the left will die, as it's already beggining to do.
But they're valid positions and I'm tired of deepthroating their boot and letting them pretend these positions aren't logical.
I don't know about that. I think kids are increasingly becoming SJWs and embracing socialism. Something has to change. Surely you can see what's happening in the world. We're slowly losing freedom of speech.
You can dislike Islam without being islamaphobic; you can think trans people are mentally ill without being transphobic, and you can recognize the crime rate and IQ statistics from certain ethnic groups without being racist. You're playing into their world, dude, by labelling yourself in their terms.
No offense meant, but there's not a softer way to put this. This is why the left calls us retarded and they're not wrong in doing so, at least when it's for this reason.
You absolutely cannot do that. If you dislike and want to stop Islam, you are an islamophobe by definition. Do you think it's okay to feel that way? Obviously it is. If the answer is "yes" then stop acting like the word for that is wrong. Why is the thought process okay but the description of the thought process bad? Because the left told you it is. Phobia bad. Ism bad. They have our balls in their purse. We're the ones playing their game and they can easily win every debate by pointing out the obvious contradictions in our claims as long as we don't reclaim these labels. Think of what so many blacks did with slurs against them. They took the power away. So I say hell yes I'm islamophobic. I'm not retarded. I hate Islam. I'm an islamophobe, and that's a good thing, something to be proud of.
We're made to look completely idiotic and full of shit when we explain things like opposing gay marriage while trying to claim we're not homophobic. The key is to man the fuck up and tell them there's nothing wrong with the labels that describe our positions.
I'm not transphobic for instance, because I don't hate trans people or are scared of them. I just think that's mentally ill. You're playing their game completely. They don't even fully know what the isms and phobia mean because they've lost all their original context; it's just a buzz word to call something "bad".
"Phobia" is often branded as denoting fear alone due to our familiarity with phobias of spiders and such but truthfully, etymologically speaking it's simply the antonym of the Greek "philia" which means "love for". Whether it be thought of as hate or fear isn't as important as the fact that it represents opposition to something.
That said, most of us do fear the repercussions of these things as overall concepts while not fearing individuals. I absolutely fear a world where our children are convinced it's trendy and cool to mutilate their bodies. I am absolutely transphobic as I oppose the trans movement.
Yes. They're used to call something bad, by the left. It doesn't change that they're the real terms. The point is that if we don't reclaim these terms and call out the absurdity of the implication that phobias are always bad, the only other option is to continue looking stupid and in denial.
I fear a world where my child turns into a spider too. That doesn't make me arachnophobic. It's just not denial, dude. You're using the worst possible word to describe something. Idk if you are legit transphobic or racist etc, but I'm not. I don't agree with the trans movement either, and I would hate if my child became trans, that doesn't mean I straight up hate trans people though or fear them. If you then yes you are legit transphobic, but most people who disagree with the movement aren't super polarised like that.
