Man, people are really concerned that their freedom to be dicks to other people is going to be infringed.

There is a difference between saying "some things are offensive, and we should not do them" and "anything that one person says offends them should be stopped"

I think you're both offensive for centering negative ("don't be"), male ("a dick") attributes in this discussion. We should instead be positive and also center female genitalia ("Be a cunt").

Also, I am offended that I wrote that, because it centers imperialist socially constructed genitalia syntax, and leaves out non-binary and trans-binary genitalia. I have therefore cancelled myself.


Or we could use completely non-gendered language and say "don't be an asshole."
