Comment on Great tee shirt with words of wisdom that I bet you never realized
AwakenedAce@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 days agoImpose their views on people who disagree with them? Damn that’s crazy, people want people to treat others with respect and not be bigoted? How political

Of course “bigoted” is in the eyes of the beholder. And those judging have no real idea if a person joking around is actually a bigot.

If you can’t tell…still not great.

Of course it’s in the eyes of the beholder, like anything is, but from the reaction of others, it seems like most people in this thread agree with me or have a similar viewpoint, so I think it’s worth considering why people had that impression. If it’s not your views coming out or your intention, fix what was pointed out and there’s that.
Nevertheless, I don’t know about you but this doesn’t look like a joke, nor does your initial comment, as it seems you’re taking what you said quite seriously, I don’t see why you’d say that if you weren’t.
But anyways, bigoted jokes are just that: bigoted. Not that great of a defence. Nobody has a problem against “joking around”, it’s more about what your comment was full of.

thanks for encouraging me to “fix” it so I am perfectly aligned with you and “most people in this thread” I wouldn’t want to be able to think for myself

Anyways, so yes, you are a bigot, thanks for confirming
