    Firstly, yeah, no one was trying to force him to call dragons real, he just kept screaming that at the top of his lungs and My God he’s STILL going. He very much equated being told he had to use a person’s stated pronouns, in this case “drag”, with being “forced” to call dragons real. I’d chase up the posts but I just can’t fluffing care anymore.

    He’s still butthurt about that for months afterwards. He’ll be on his deathbed smirking “heh, owned those leftists who tried to make me a better person. I sure showed them.”

    Secondly, as someone that’s disabled and incontinent, this makes me so bloody depressed. Please be better than this when calling people out, it’s ableism to treat incontinence like this. There’s a reason that roughly 70% of incon folks (depending on the study) would rather have a limb amputated than continue to be incontinent.

    No no you don’t understand, he has chronic pain so that justifys all his actions and words, he’s always right!! /s

    When my arm was at its worst before reconstructing my shoulder twice, I often wanted to just chop it off. The amputation would have been better than the constant nerve pain that I still feel every now and again.

    PugJesus probably is chronically ill. I’m not going to play the disability Olympics. He is allowed to state it and not required to share his medical history.

    But man it feels like he uses it as a fallback anytime someone calls him out on anything.

      The second quote was the OP of this post calling out PJ. I wouldn’t bother with trying to correct PJ anymore. I also don’t really give a fluff if he’s disabled or not, it’s not carte blanche to do whatever you want.

        If you correct PJ, he’ll call you a fascist as he just defends genocide, neoliberalism, and anything that might stop fascism.

        And yeah, it’s not carte blanche. It can explain but not excuse actions. I have 4 different mental health issues and like 3 physical ones. Sometimes I get crabby, very emotional, unable to control my body and how I feel.

        But after I calm down I apologize and try to do better. I try to make right what I fucked up.

      uses it as a fallback

      Most people, I’m coming to realize, never really believe in anything. It’s all tribalistic bullshit, so the invocation of an identity, of group membership, is effectively the same as or maybe better than a moral statement of right/wrong to them.
