  • When I was a kid I used to walk to the movie store to rent games. I would go back every time I had money and rent Chrono Trigger, but some one would always erase my save, so I would have to start over.

    On my birthday I got a check from my grandma that was for 50 dollars. I walked right up to the game store and slammed my check on the counter for one copy of Chrono Trigger. I didn’t know how money, checks, or sales tax worked.

    Luckily, my mom bailed me out. I played that game for years. I still have such fond memories of that game.



  • This seems disingenuous. You don’t have to date anyone you don’t want, and you don’t have to be friends with anyone you don’t want. Why did you decide that was the place to draw the line? You do not have to date Bob from accounting for any reason. But you also don’t deserve a job along side Bob if you go on talking about how he doesn’t deserve a place in our society.

    Ones rights doesn’t supercede anothers. You can be a Nazi in your own home, but once you start sprewing hate publicly you are infrining the freedoms of others. This is already the law. But people want to change this law, and are using transphobia to do so, in much the same way they use fear of pedophiles to errode your rights.(trans people harm kids, we must ban trans people to protect kids, is the essential arguement.)In essence You claim that if we stop trans-hate speech, we are losing our rights, but in reality those who are sprewing trans-hate are actively trying to remove your rights and just using transphobia as a means to an end.

    Hate speech is always about removing freedoms and rights. Either through violence or legislation. If you want to talk about lines drawn: should we stop Bob from screaming “gas the Jews” in his own home? What about outside a synagogue? What about on the Senate floor? Which of these seems more of an infringement of a Jewish person’s rights?
