A couple folks in this thread are doing a really good job elucidating why I don't like Chapo, and the person promoting it is doing a great job validating that dislike

@angrboda 'it must be rough being so sensitive' in response to 'I don't like this because they use the r slur' is such a text book right wing dipshit thing to say. Constantly being assholes only courts shitty people who don't understand empathy (which should be the core of leftist belief).

Therian tried to have me read a passage from their book and it ended in a big page of HAHA I TRIGGERED YOU which isn't... a joke? Repeating the shitty things right wingers say as if they're funny is like... if nothing else, pretty bad praxis IMO. Like... I'm glad you have enough privilege to think this stuff is funny when it's just scary and harmful?

@angrboda also I wanna clarify that I'm not putting him on blast for liking them (I get wanting an angry voice who says the things you're feeling) just trying to work thru why I don't feel the same way.

@angrboda @angrboda TBF The abelism does bother me. I think they’ve been toning it down since their fans have been vocal about it.
