Toxic positivity is so different than just freely allowing people to be complete bigoted assholes I have to assume you’re missing it this much on purpose
Being "complete bigoted assholes" are how we, as a society keep errant members in check. It's a feature of the tribalism inherent in humanity. Scoffing at someone being a thief, for example - we don't consider that "bigoted", only because we all mostly agree that it's bad.
Insanely stupid lemmoid response id expect nothing less from this shithole
Reality is often a shithole, I agree. But we all gotta live in it. Utopian dreams are just that...dreams. Time to wake up.
great! the world is a shithole because of assholes, so let’s just all be assholes… what an asshole self-fulfilling thing to say
personally, i prefer to leave the world a better place than what i found it, and people better off for my presence in it
YOU don't have to be an asshole. That's your decision.
It's when you start making the decision for OTHERS that you become the asshole yourself. You don't get to police speech. If I want to call you Blinky the fucking ass-clown, I can. It's the moment where you step over the line and determine what other people are allowed to say that you become the asshole. Enough of you utopian dickheads trying to nice-wash the internet.
Cissy freak.

Sorry, you need to re-learn the definition of freak. I'm the normal one. Love you. <3
Ah yes, somebody who thinks that Utopia is bad. Yet another red flag.
You know that Utopia is so "perfect" that its etymology actually means "Nowhere"? Because it's imaginary.
