You know what's unwanted? Being told I'm human waste or how ****ty my hair is every other post or all the other **** that gets said. But the weight of that doesn't matter because I made a controversial statement that I'm not aloud to discuss because it makes people uncomfortable. You're aloud to though, you're aloud to give your opinion but not me.

I'm genuinely sorry that my comments about your hair were unpleasant to you.
You were making fun of it yourself occasionaly so I assumed you'd be fine with it. Like I am with people joking about my jew lips.
I won't do that again and ftr your hair and you as a person are cool.

Thanks for pointing that out. Didn't know about it. Not on board with it.

I still think he would look cool with the hair and beard braided together ftr. But in a supportive way.

It's not one little comment that upsets me it's just all that I ever hear all the time is that I'm an idiot or ugly or trash or a pleb or disgusting or a miserable **** or I'm a problem or I'm toxic or I'm selfish or I'm a burden or I'm attention seeking. There's always something wrong with me.

Dude, quit playing the martyr. You sound like a crybaby. People get emotional over this stuff and if you want them to respect your opinions and feelings then you should do the same.

Stop victimizing yourself for an opinion that is, I'm sorry, ethically plain wrong.

EDIT: And when have the mods every called you ugly or useless? I'd never say that sh*t to you dude.

I'm not actually trying to reopen the discussion and OH was a ****head but I don't like an environment where the most offended group gets to decide what is and is not acceptable to discuss simply because they're emotional about the subject. Especially when two of the people are mods and actually get to summarily do that. I get that OH made the discussion toxic but just tell him to shut the **** up and then count to ten.

Look, I don't ever want to make it seem like what I am offended by is off limits. That wasn't what my statement was about. Open discussion regardless of what side of the argument I'm on is encouraged but there is a line that can be crossed. The discussion that was forming crossed that line. We didn't demand it to end because we disagreed. We ended it because it was completely inappropriate for this forum.

You guys truly do belong to the safe space trigger warning it’s unacceptable to even discuss something I find offensive generation. You’re a bunch of chicken**** intellectual cowards. No wonder your schools suck. Hint: It’s the students.
