minus-squaremerc@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·2 months agoIt’s fun whacking a straw man, but “I don’t agree with X” doesn’t mean “X doesn’t exist”, it means “I don’t believe people should engage in X”. If someone says “I don’t agree with pushing your religious beliefs on others”, would you reply the same way?
minus-squareCXORA@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·2 months agoYou understand that’s different right? How are you going to complain about a strawman and then use one of your own? Homosexuality isnt an action its a characteristic. “I dont agree with recycling” is different than “i dont agree with being left handed”.
