    The issues with a question like that and trans and non-binary people should be self-evident, and waving it away with “it’s just a joke bro” really doesn’t pass the sniff test for me.

    I understand what you're saying. And I'll concede that I could have come up with a more gender neutral snarky "bullshit detection question".

    But getting from "obviously juvenile dick humor" to "a verbal assault on the trans community" isn't self-evident.

    And finally, I’d like to point out that in a post making fun of /r/socialism being full of “extremely young/actual children” proposing that mods ask them about their genitals is just super cool and normal. Even as a joke.

    Anyone in the community that popularized "pig pooping on its own balls" imagery has very little room to critique the maturity of others.

      You have some serious issues with reading comprehension if you think this was the thrust of my response to you. Let me spell it out for you: Asking minors about their junk, even as a joke, is weird and creepy.

        Ah. So dick jokes on the internet are now :epstein: because children might see them.

          Not only that, but let's also acknowledge the massive bad faith in play here as he alleges that this thing that he appended to his third reply to you:

          somehow constituted "the thrust of [his] response to you."

          Of course not. Which of course makes them appropriate in any and all situations, even census polls for socialist subs.

          I think I'm about done with your reddit-brained debate bro nonsense. Have a PPB, which is appropriate because this is a shitposting site:
