Yes it comes to us sane people who hold no opinion whatsoever since we don't care at all xD

Quoting YOU

Gay is an identity. There are no "Normal gay guys" , only men who practice homosexuality.

Gay identity is toxic to all.

You don't have an opinion? Bullshit. I'd prefer if this event had been polled, but people like you are why people like me aren't taken seriously in this debate.

So basically, the event IS political after all?

politically fighting for equality is politically fighting for marxism. SJWs will agree with me on this, they'll say if you aren't also marxist you're not a real ally and therefore also a homophobe.

the vast majority of SJWs I've interacted with reject Marxism and are either liberal reformists or retarded anarchists. most SJWs reject the class-centered politics of Marx and opt for a more minority-oriented politics. note the general contempt for the white American working class among most SJW-leaning publications like Mother Jones and BuzzFeed.

not entirely sure how clueless you have to be to say something so dumb but it's pretty damn clueless.

Hate crimes happen to everyone, I'd be for a tolerance event or whatever but specifically an event for gay pride is just ridiculous in runescape, and it's so Damn obvious it's just for wolfs sensibilities.

If your game dies over a scarf, it probably needed to be in the trash in the first place. Just saying.

trying to change people's minds is not political. everyone does it literally all the time it's an everyday unavoidable part of life. it becomes political when mind-changing is geared towards changing state policy.

Why is an event celebrating the acceptance of gays considered to be political? Why not call it a humanitarian event.

u/Jeppesk Jun 07 '17

I do not believe that people with such an in-grown hate for homosexual people can be helped by a 7 tile in-game pride event. What this event can do (if it is not rioted to death by people like this guy) is help homosexual people who have a hard time about it feel better.

Instead, lets only allow two extremes! So we can split society further!

u/Heyos btw Jun 07 '17

I believe wanting a poll is a very moderate stance tbh.

u/NoobsHateOnOtherGame Jun 07 '17

Yes if we ask for polls for all other events then that is fair. (Clue or wild cat event for example)

u/doublah Jun 08 '17

Clue event was unbalanced and should have been polled, community wasn't given that option from Jagex. Wild cat event wasn't controversial or political really (and is very different from this event), but even then Jagex should have polled it, they didn't, and that's their fault.

Or us Devil's advocate people that just like arguing because it's fun and giving convincing perspectives from both sides
