Sure, because the persecution of black people in the US is at all equivalent to the bullying of anime nerds, right.
The problem is not that thin-skinned people could do mental gymnastics to find reasons to be upset, it’s that ‘coon’ is straight up a racial slur that was historically a major tool of oppression.
Bullying should never be ok, and rules should be valid and applicable for everyone.
Nobody should be a valid target for verbal abuse, not even anime nerds.
So if a rule against verbal harm and abuse are implemented (which I am not against at all) then such rule should be valid and used for all cases.
There is no equality if new inequality is created in the process.
I am drunk because I have the belief that everyone should be truly equal in front of the law and that rules about a thing/concept should be valid for all instances of that thing/concept?
If you think so then, ok I am drunk and go home.
Have a nice weekend!
We talk about personal opinions, there is not much that is more personal then personal opinions. And you are making ad hominem claims (my soberness) so yes it is about me.
But it is not me how brought it to the personal level, that was you with calling me drunk.
Before that it was completely abstract and impersonal.
It’s only about you because you made it about you.
“Ghoul” is not a slur. You saying that seeing an unpleasant word next to a word that reminds you of anime is at all equivalent to a slur is frankly ghastly of you.
You’d almost have a leg to stand on if they changed it to “Captain Weeaboo” or something, but even then the comparison is a stretch. You’re showing up at somebody’s funeral to say “I scraped my knee, that’s bad too! We’re all equal as humans, so I deserve to speak”.
Christ, what a stretch. It’s obviously a play on the tech Mogul definition.
Not a bigger stretch then with the Ty Coon, that was obviously a play on the Tycoon.
It was not me who started to read bad things into word play, but by that rules is Moe Ghoul offensive too.

You’re drunk for thinking this is about you.

Grow up.
