    So of according to you, if there is a single guy on earth who gets just as upset from being called “doofus” as a black person from being called the N-Word, that in your mind makes calling someone a doofus and calling a black person the N-Word comparable ?

      Did you skip over the part of it being completely unnecessary? Insults are a part of human communication, you can’t just erase them, so of course it makes sense to classify some as worse than others. It’s a fundamental part of insults even.

        You literally just argued, verbatim, that because being called gay in isolated cases can be just as bad as a trans person being misgendered, that makes deliberately misgendering and calling someone gay comparable.

        That was your verbatim argument. And you’ve suddenly moved the goal posts to “of course it makes sense to classify some as worse than others”

            Oh and also

            I don’t think there’s a need to rank one as worse than the other

            And then literally one comment later

            Of course it makes sense to classify some as worse than others

            Goalposts moving more than the ball here. If you can’t be fucked to engage with my points honestly, then just say that, instead of this intellectually dishonest goal post moving you keep doing.

            But I think in individual cases the “i thought you were gay” can be just as bad, so I do think it’s entirely comparable.

            Literally. Verbatim. Who do you think you’re kidding here dude ?
