I made a joke about him having matching butt plugs with Nick Fuentes and how gross that is. My cishet ass didn't realize how wildly offensive that is to lgbtq comrades and I feel like a total shit for doing it so I want to apologize to the community and promise I took it to heart and will self crit on doing better.

Love y'all penguin-love

    Okay but why can't a hetero couple with more than vanilla curiosities have matching buttplugs? Still seems like a miss to pin it on queerness.

      Homophobia can and is used to police heterosexual behaviours as well as queer ones. They’re kind of two sides of the same coin

    I can't help but notice that even the mods are kind of meta in what they remove.

    They could have said "target of", or "object of", but instead...

    Thank you, comrade. This was greatly appreciated.

    A lot of other comrades that were in that post need to do something similar. So many people calling it gross. Way too many for my liking.

      Thanks, I hope others come around too and do some self-crit. Normally I don't beat myself up over comments but I knew I fucked up and pretty badly and I didn't want to leave anyone hanging that I was just going to dip out without making amends for that.

    Things that are alien to us make us uncomfortable. Laughing at uncomfortable things is a coping mechanism. Sometimes we forget we are laughing at another human being.

    thanks for this comrade

    in turn i wanna say at least from me apology accepted, and that even i myself as a gay man™ have committed queerphobia and have to catch myself sometimes. i was more abrasive than i should have been in my reply and you're genuinely a great part of the community and it's posters like you that keep me coming back to this site stalin-heart
