I'm sorry you're offended Adidasss but I'm really glad you're not a mod. I'd hate for members's sense of humor to be censored to the level I think you'd be most comfortable with. It's good to have mods that that aren't like that.

It was the dumbest attempt at a joke gif I could come up with and it sent Adidasss into a tailspin because they honestly have zero capacity for humor when it comes to LGBTQ subject matter.

The ironic part was that I was going to write a nice review of Call Me By Your Name because I thought it was a beautiful film but went with a sh*tty joke gif instead.

Doesn't matter. I'm insensitive I guess.

The current mod team is qualified but we're down to add more if they're right for the gig. Thanks for asking, and please stop calling Marie a trollmod, it's unbecoming

Depends on what kind of a forum you want, a general laissez-faire attitude tends to bring out the worst in people on the internet and I would personally prefer if people were more considerate, even on the internet. There should be lines you shouldn't cross. We tend to differ on what lines those are. I spent a considerable amount of words in the past 5 years pointing out how people (here and I guess in general) are more sensitive to the feelings of racial and ethnic minorities than those of the LGBTQ+ population, which shouldn't be the case (I won't get tired of using this analogy so I'll do it again because it's the simplest one, let's try to replace "gay" with "black/latino/etc" when describing a movie whose main protagonists are black/latino/etc. Does it make things a little more clear? Would anyone feel comfortable in doing that?).

Anyways, I'll continue putting my point of view out there in the hopes that someone will understand. But no, I wouldn't censor this kind of thing. Just point out how stupid and insensitive it is.

Ah so adi's intentionally missing the irony of Exo's post because he's mad that we pointed out that he's racist as ****. That makes sense. To be fair though, he's been a lot better about it lately.
