Sure, we can go with your equivalent. It still makes my point. What is your point? That overt discrimination against Muslims is less tolerated than overt discrimination against Christians? I agree with that personally, but it's also meaningful that you can't think of an actual analogy here because that's what sets the tone of the responses. The fact that Islam is a minority religion that largely just gets dumped on in minute and everyday ways has real world implications for how people respond to you dumping on the religion. For instance, one thing you see a lot more of for Muslims than Christians is that people get mad and protest them for wanting to open up a house of worship. You see a lot of states passing laws trying to outlaw 'muslim courts.' It is the same way that you can shit on white people on twitter and no one cares but if you call black people names you get censored. But at the same time being black is worse than being white in many ways due to other forms of covert and overt discrimination in the institutions that govern our laws. So would you act like it's better to be black because you can say that white people can't cook or w/e on twitter? So idk what I'm supposed to take away from this conversation. --- But to you who are listening I say: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. ...

Why do the usual suspects just like to pretend context doesnt exist? Were in a world where a bucket of chicken can be offensive!..yes. Sometimes people use it to be offensive and hurtful. Thats where context comes into play.

Thats where context comes into play. The problem is the context is subjective. Bitch enough about it, and the context itself no longer matters. "A public official should know better!" Prime example being that pro-Obama commentator who still got canned for saying "cotton pickin' " despite it being an incredibly common southern phrase. Because people from the North had never heard it and didn't give two shits about context. --- Well allons-y, Alonso! ... Copied to Clipboard!

These sorts of people argue that inequality on things that actually matter (criminal justice, economics, politics etc.) are just things that are made to be accepted and navigated through, while at the same time, demanding equality be enforced socially.

No context is not subjective in that case. If its intended to be offensive its intended to be offensive. What is subjective is how you choose to react to it. But spare me all this man people call fried chicken racist now what a world! Nonsense.
If a racist neighbor started yelling shit about fried chicken in anger to another neighbor then contextually, thats offensive. Theyre attempting to be hurtful. Subjectively you can choose to be upset about it or not but its not the fried chicken that someone is choosing to be upset about. Its the racism. --- "I devour urine just like my Portland Trailblazers, with piss poor defense." ... Copied to Clipboard!

Sometimes people use it to be offensive and hurtful. Thats where context comes into play. That example is obvious. What isn't obvious is that cop who put a load of trash in a tree, one of which was a chicken bucket, and he was immediately fired. Being from the south, it seemed like a blatant diss on "trailer trash" rednecks. That's an example of subjective context. --- Well allons-y, Alonso! ... Copied to Clipboard!

We're in a world where a bucket of chicken can be considered blatantly racist. Don't make stupid political correctness rules unless you want to play by them. Except there's a difference between people genuinely being offended about something (or even defending people who they genuinely think are offended, even if they are wrong) and pretending to be offended about something because "those are the rules I guess". This is the same dumb **** you played with the Kavanaugh hearing where you pretended like it was fair play for Republicans to hypothetically make up rape allegations to derail a confirmation hearing in the future because Democrats had the gall to believe someone's rape allegations. --- ...

Err no they were pointing out that inventing rape allegations would become common if the confirmation hearing was delayed 6 months on an accusation that literally had no proof. Especially when the star witness tried to intentionally delay testifying and had several outrageous demands which included not flying in to testify and no female investigator allowed to question her or demanding the accused to testify first so that the accused cannot defend themselves from the accuser. --- [Insert tired meme here] ...
