There was a post about trans athletes the other day. It is now deleted, but where exactly in that post were people talking about the athlete being a "modern day Jackie Robinson?"
No where was that said! You just made that up and its revisionist.
However. Since you seem to need examples of trash in posts, in THAT post there were concrete examples of misogyny and trans phobia that were even called out!
Yes Rojo in the same post people were able to carry on the sport related discussion of trans athletes in sport, but AT THE SAME TIME there was a lot of garbage. Things like willful incorrect pronoun use, outdated or bad science, propaganda "science", and in general transphibic language that when called out was basically responded to with "I'll say whatever I want!" And "liberal agendas!" ?
So what is your point exactly? That the thread was relevant and quality BC a few people were able to keep it on track?
Here is another perspective: The thread was sh*t because sh* t people were happily posting away in it and now you are up in here defending it instead of owning those actions as well as revising the actual content of that post.
This is your site.
Do better.
To your credit the post was finally removed, but now YOU are up in here whining and being defensive about it, which undermines the action and makes it seem like you don't believe in the practice in the first place.
It makes it seem like: 1 you are blind or ignorant to the situation or 2: you see it and agree with it!
Is your argument really that its not "overall" sexist, racist, misogynistic etc so...what?
Its okay? It can continue? These posts are fine?
Talk about complacency.
