So that "straight white men" was just an "edgy insult" as well, yes? This isn't a one way street, here.

I have no reason to demonize you (again, you're projecting). I personally don't care what you do (or don't do), but I also don't need to include myself in something I have no interest in, whatsoever. In case you didn't realize or care, we just got done mourning the heroes that have given their lives to protect "our" (that's OUR as in ALL OF US - See? No demonizing there either) freedoms. Did you bother supporting that, by chance? Did you hit up a Memorial Day parade? Maybe visit a grave site? I didn't see you mention that whatsoever, but twice now you've made sure to let us all to know that pride month is coming soon! Regards, Nick .... Take my advice, I don't use it anyway. --- Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:115.0) Gecko/20100101 Thunderb * Origin: _thePharcyde distribution system (Wisconsin) (723:1/1) þ Synchronet þ _thePharcyde telnet://bbs.pharcyde.org (Wisconsin) .
