i guess some people cant take a joke ._.

funny joke -_-

very funny
keep on laughing

What was the image

a comment saying being gay is bad and a sin and an image saying to cry about it

bruh
that shouldn't have been unfeatured

the rules say that LGBTQ+ phobia isn't allowed here

Oh ok

Why would they call you homophobic?

it's gone farther than just being a joke though

-.-
i would be ok with it if it was a joke, (which even then that's a really unfunny joke) but this shit has become a trend
it's also literally against the rules to post LGBTQ+ phobia here

Once again, you're saying it's only funny if it's not targeted at you or your community.

I laugh at memes that make fun of me because they are legitimately funny.

No, it's literally against the rules to attack people for being LGBTQ. There's a difference between that and making jokes about them.

i laugh at (most) memes that make fun of me too
i see a meme about dream fans sucking, I upvote
I see a meme about how i posted a bunch about abusive parents that was making fun of me, i upvote.
but being a fan of a youtuber is not something that holds as much meaning and weight as one's sexuality/romanticity/gender identity

Oh, so it's only funny unless it's about LGBTQ. Okay. We can joke about anything (even abusive parents) but not LGBTQ.

Also, we still aren't attacking you for being LGBTQ. As said, there's a difference, and just because you get offended by a joke encompassing the whole community doesn't mean we need to stop. This isn't a personal issue.

no, that isn't what i said
i joke about my abusive parent because it helps with dealing with it and also to let others know they aren't alone
the image i disapproved was clearly more than a joke
and again, -IT IS LITERALLY AGAINST THE RULES-
you could post all the LGBTQ+ phobic stuff you want in LITERALLY ALMOST ANY OTHER STREAM except for personal streams of most allys/members of the community and LGBTQ+ related streams

"-IT IS LITERALLY AGAINST THE RULES-"
Nope. It's against the rules to attack people for being LGBTQ. That is phobia. Making jokes about them is not phobia.

I suggest instead of telling people what the rule is, you actually read it for proper context.

i have read the rules multiple times
i know when it crosses the line of being a joke to being bullying
it's kind of stupid that it's even a trend to say that stuff and then say it's a joke, but i'm ok with it as long as it was actually a joke and there were no other intentions

jokes =/= attacks.

easy as that.

people can lie about intent
it's very easy

i don't believe you've read the rules multiple times for a second.

because if you did you wouldn't be throwing a fit about all this.

i'm not throwing a fit, all i originally did was disapprove an image. You're the one who is continuing to get angry over disapproving an image that violates the msmg rules

i don't even know why i'm still responding to this, all we're doing is arguing at this point and it's not even going anywhere

Why wouldn't I get mad when a meme is wrongfully taken down?

I just showed you the rule. Read it. Does it say we can't joke about LGBTQ? No. Does it say we can't attack people for being LGBTQ? Yes.

anyone can lie about the meaning behind something they have said or done.
we have to be able to figure out the original intent

do i care?

I know you don't, but it might hurt other people and i'm trying to avoid as much of that as possible

ye
same, but sometimes that c h a n g e s
