    The issue with not getting offended on the behalf of minorities is that nobody will listen otherwise. Which is kind of detrimental to minorities getting to live a decent and free life, as every human deserves. So, I try to do my best to be informed of marginalized groups and protect their interests. I am open to discussion and different opinions if you can show me that at least some of the affected people agree.

    If you think that’s ‘causing drama’ a civil discussion won’t be possible. But don’t put the blame on me - that is entirely on you and your unwillingness to check your privilege.

      You are literally speaking for another demographic without being part of it. This is minority-splaining.

      Could you project your privilege any harder?

        I’ve never heard the term “minority-splaining”, but I assume you took inspiration from “mansplaining” or “whitesplaining”. Which, in the first place, already doesn’t make any sense, because white people/men are the privileged ones in that situation, but the minorities are obviously not privileged, and aren’t the ones doing the senseless explaining.

        So if my assumption is correct, for it to be “minority-splaining”, you would need to be trans. However, I don’t see anything on your profile that makes me believe so. Thus, I am not telling someone who is affected that their opinion is invalid (which, I didn’t even tell you that your opinion was invalid). And even if you were trans, I would be open to discussion and to learn about how this is not transphobic. So no, this is not “minority-splaining”.

        I am trying to use my privilige to fight against bigotry. If you can’t see that, again, that’s on you.

        What is ‘projecting ones privilige’ even supposed to mean?

        Feel free to respond, but I’m just gonna stop replying to you now because it really seems to me like you are just trolling at this point.

          Oh yeah, I must be trolling because I’m calling you out as a virtue signalling douchebag.

          You are start shit because of a joke.

          I bet you wouldn’t be so “offended” if the joke was, if They disagree, tell them to check their white privilege.

          It’s a joke when it’s against group A and a statement when against group B. You are a hypocrite and a shithead.

            if you really think telling someone to check their privilige is offensive in any way whatsoever, I have no idea how anyone is supposed to help you get out of that hole you dug yourself.

            also, you keep circling back to your same non-argument, a tell tale sign of a troll. go back to lurking. bye!
