Senate Fat Acceptance & Fatphobia Discussion

Hey Ezio. If you say

then maybe don't say

 

So we can't have a preference about who we are attracted to without that being shaming towards anybody who doesn't fit that description?

 

This is the JCC. Disagreeing with the echo chamber is forbidden. I guess it's in the TOS?

 

I don't know about your particular situation. Perhaps "harassing" sounds a bit hyperbolic to me, but ok, I'll give you that there might be a bit of an unjustified hostile behavior toward body builders. That sounds fair to me.

 

You would think so according to a certain group of users here.

 

Been there. For liking SW, of all things

 

How dare you? I'm offended by this.

 

I get shamed too, Ezio. "Evan, you're too attractive. It's distracting." "Do you know how many people get lost in your eyes?" "Your arm muscles ripple too much." It's tough.

 

I know, I know - you can't say you like SW in a SW board.

 

I say I like SW all the time here and have never been harassed for it here...

 

Somebody said something like that the other day, how making SW references on a SW message board is a sign of lesser intelligence.

 

The thread is called “Star Wars is Bad”. It’s on the sign. We have little placards and everything.

 

Thank God you were here. I wanted this joke to be made but I couldn't find the proper wording to make it myself, so I was precisely hoping for either you or Chorus to make it instead.

 

What do you think of this video?

 

You mean like quoting yourself when you're trying to quote somebody else?

 

Yes, a quote error is totally the same thing. you got me.

 

That's literally a typo. Come on. That's not being an idiot.

As I said, I post about loving SW here all the time....never been a problem for me. It's not the message, it's the poster.

 

Well yea, but when you're literally calling somebody else an idiot, that kind of goes out the window.

 

Thread topic: *essentially discusses bullying*
Some members: *posts opinions and experiences unfamiliar to other JCCers*
Other JCCers: *bullies, name-calls, mob-attack* "No one can have a different opinion or experience! You're idiots!"

 

Great thread, BRE

 

I mean, the poster who got gained up on here was being openly prejudiced against a whole group of people. We wouldn't allow this for, say, complaining about a whole race of people. Why should we for this?
