    Listen man, it’s really simple. In a thread about rising anti-immigrant politicians you explicitly tied my right to exist in my own country to me conforming to nativist norms. That is a majorly fucked up thing to say.

    There are two cases here. If you don’t mean it, you are free to apologize. If you do mean it, own it.

    This “everyone lives in a society” stuff is just weak mealy mouthed equivocation.

      You know what is fucked up? Believing yourself too good to confirm to “nativist norms”. What the hell is even that? What do you even mean with your “own country” if you are not willing to conform to their way of life?

      Being a citizen somewhere does not just mean living there. It means following the local customs and adhering to them.

      This “everyone lives in a society” stuff is just weak mealy mouthed equivocation.

      I mean, “every one lives in a society” is pretty clear cut. I seriously don’t get what’s hard about respecting the culture you want to live in.

          Pfft, that is not something I need to accept from a smooth brain that isn’t even willing to entertain the idea of being wrong.

          Your cowardice exists in how you think everyone needs to automatically accept you for who you are while stomping all over the norms others find important.
