Guess I pissed off some reactionary liberals.

While I disagree with the rest of your take, I could at least respect your opinion right up until your edit with this at the end. I can't see your downvotes from my instance, but calling everyone that disagrees with your unpopular opinion "reactionary liberals" is a pretty weak effort on your part.

Cool. I don't respect the opinion of those who disagree with this take. Those who blame the individual for systemic issues that are beyond their control are by definition reactionary. They react to the individual action and assign them blame for something that is not their fault rather than take into account the system factors that surround these choices.

So I really don't give a shit if you don't respect my opinion. I don't respect yours.

I'm really sorry that you see everyone opposed to your views in this way, it must feel really miserable from where you're standing. Have a nice day ✌️

And I'm sorry you cannot understand how disrespectful and unworthy of respect it is to hold the position to blame people for things beyond their control and for simply trying to live their life and enjoy the things they like.

People who do that are shitty people.

What is going on with your moral compass that you believe that sometimes, funding bigots doesn't make you a shitty person, yet also lets you believe that disagreeing with you on that issue topic is enough to qualify someone as a shitty person?

If you can make an exception for people funding Rowling, you can make space for them disagreeing with you, without pretending that they're the problem

You're welcome 😊
