He posted porn. He’s not getting unbanned for a while at least. If anyone else posted what he posted you guys would be crying for perma ban

Maybe crack down on the anti-gay humor next time?

[Jorge]

Where's the anti-gay humor?

[Anders]

Homophobic

[doug rr]

[Anders]

1. Homophobic posts are made
2. Gay man gets offended and complains
3. Nothing happens
4. He responds and posts some generic porn dick
5. He is banned

I'm not sure if this is entirely fair. I don't think anyone intentionally made a homophobic post, just questionable jokes (I just don't think trag or 9up are bigots) and there didn't appear to really be any time between 2 and 4.

This is clearly not the first time here he has been offended by this.

I'll take your word for it. I don't read a lot of his posts and only discovered he was gay a few days ago.

Which ones? And please explain why they are homophobic (anti gay)

There is a wolf in me . . . fangs pointed for tearing gashes . . . a red tongue for raw meat . . . and the hot lapping of blood—I keep this wolf because the wilderness gave it to me and the wilderness will not let it go.

There is a fox in me . . . a silver-gray fox . . . I sniff and guess . . . I pick things out of the wind and air . . . I nose in the dark night and take sleepers and eat them and hide the feathers . . . I circle and loop and double-cross.

There is a hog in me . . . a snout and a belly . . . a machinery for eating and grunting . . . a machinery for sleeping satisfied in the sun—I got this too from the wilderness and the wilderness will not let it go.

There is a fish in me . . . I know I came from salt-blue water-gates . . . I scurried with shoals of herring . . . I blew waterspouts with porpoises . . . before land was . . . before the water went down . . . before Noah . . . before the first chapter of Genesis.

There is a baboon in me . . . clambering-clawed . . . dog-faced . . . yawping a galoot's hunger . . . hairy under the armpits . . . here are the hawk-eyed hankering men . . . here are the blonde and blue-eyed women . . . here they hide curled asleep waiting . . . ready to snarl and kill . . . ready to sing and give milk . . . waiting—I keep the baboon because the wilderness says so.

There is an eagle in me and a mockingbird . . . and the eagle flies among the Rocky Mountains of my dreams and fights among the Sierra crags of what I want . . . and the mockingbird warbles in the early forenoon before the dew is gone, warbles in the underbrush of my Chattanoogas of hope, gushes over the blue Ozark foothills of my wishes—And I got the eagle and the mockingbird from the wilderness.

O, I got a zoo, I got a menagerie, inside my ribs, under my bony head, under my red-valve heart—and I got something else: it is a man-child heart, a woman-child heart: it is a father and mother and lover: it came from God-Knows-Where: it is going to God-Knows-Where—For I am the keeper of the zoo: I say yes and no: I sing and kill and work: I am a pal of the world: I came from the wilderness.

anders please point to the homophobic posts so we can settle this

We should really be asking Dime

[Ello Sailor]

Yo soy...

devastado

Agreed. Very little humor offends me personally, but I have understanding for a gay man being offended by lots of jokes about being gay.

[Ello Sailor]

All I'm hearing is Anders didn't mind the gay porn. Maybe even... enjoyed it?

What a pickle.

[Jorge]

We can disagree on whether 9UP saying "yo soy gay" is homophobic (I don't think it is) but he had stopped doing it for a long while. Long before the Zelensky kerfuffle he had laid off the gay thing. The thing is, Dime saw some old threads that were bumped by Dev and I'm guessing that is what drove him over the edge.

Words cannot express how idiotic and destructive this mindset is.
