If I cared to waste my time doing so, I could find plenty of objectionable comments in just about any Reddit sub. You seem to believe tough conversations about whether Muslim culture is compatible with Western culture, or whether the US should begin mass deportations of illegal aliens should not occur. I’d have to disagree with you there. If we can’t discuss complex topics like this on the internet, then where can we discuss them?

You’re really not very good at gaslighting.

What you are describing are not “tough conversations”, they are hardly a conversation at all. Trying to misrepresent the parent comment’s claim that they want to suppress all discussion of these topics and then calling their description an attempt at “gaslighting” is fairly poor-faith.

If you're not interested in having those conversations then don't participate in them. No need to claim those who are are somehow "hateful". You have expressed your opinion, which I totally disagree with. But thanks for writing!
