This is also a good thing and we need a lot more people getting arrested for saying crap like this to people. On and offline speech are no longer different. "Kill yourself" really should be considered a call for violence. I agree, but do you think online threats will ever be dulled? People on my side of the issue really believe it can be, but are so often shouted down with pessimism like "it's the internet, death and rape threats are just what you'll always have to expect." I don't think that's true. It's a long road, but change can happen. Despite their continued prevalence, I would guess there has been SOME slight level of decrease in the prevalence of homophobic slurs in online conversation in the last decade. --- Thank you, Eddie Guerrero. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CvGKDK2WIAAmKTf?format=jpg&name=large <cite>Jakyl25 posted [p:881518931] in Politics C...
