You're extending undue deference and centering assholes in service of a fucking loon rightwing talking point from the 90's.
You're asking me (even if the example you're offering isn't actually a good one)..if some person was an asshole..did they deserve to be treated like an asshole.
Well...yeah.
Treating assholes like assholes? Sure, call em out. My line begins at actual bullying and calling for their suicide though.
Quote:Treating people like absolute pieces of shit for saying something they didn’t mean? Nope. Can’t get behind that.From time to time, eh? How about the problem(s) PC aligns itself against? How often..if you had to guess..in the span of 60 seconds?
There are a lot of dicks in the world, but honest mistakes and poor thoughtless phrasing happen too. I’m not willing to treat people like actual Nazi’s over something like that, and find myself leveled against people who do. This shit happens from time to time, and while it’s not a “plaster it across the front page” problem it’s still a problem. That’s all I’m trying to get across.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
