Alabama bans Arthur gay wedding episode

[Dread Pirate Phayde]

Alabama is doing an excellent job of showing me it was good that I didn't move there.

[Noxx79]

I’m good with not showing political propaganda to children.

Ok, what does this have to do with Arthur?

[Mehrunes]

I know what I'm saying, not my problem because people twist it out as they usually do.

There's no twisting here. You do realize that this is an online forum, right? And that I can requote your post whenever needs be? Here, since you need a refresher on your own brilliance:

What do you mean "of course"? One thing is that they should accept that it exists, it's completely another to have forceful impact on their brains while growing up. They should also accept that avoiding homosexual people is a valid choice and they have right to that.

Would you look at that, you did mention forceful impacts on their brains, with your entire argument being how that's a negative thing. And then you said this, when you negated doing so:

It's not negative affect on their brains, it's negative affect of understanding what is right or wrong. I am totally fine to show same sex marriage in cartoons if they also explain that same sex marriage cannot have natural way of having children. Deal?

So, again, own up to your posts.

You know what is shocking? I am open about my straight sexual orientation and also open about me being homophobic and somehow that is like I impaled a fork to someones eye. No one can force me to like gay people. It's not a thing that is open for discussion. Surely, I mean no harm to gay people but I am not obliged in any way to like them.

How is that shocking, exactly? It's not the 1500s and as such bigotry gets generally scorned. That should be common knowledge by now. Since homophobic bigots tend to be conservative, something something personal responsibility for your bigotry.

If you ask me would I prevent gay people to work in some place? Of course not, I am not mixing their sexual orientation with how they are able to do their work but believe me, most of them are not "straight in the head" and again, it's not because of homosexuality it's because of same shit that I got like 20 replies here - I just have to accept homosexuality because if I don't I hate gays and that is like main reason why someone will not work at the place. No, I do not.

For someone so OK with their own homophobia you're awfully defensive here. I wonder why. And gee, you're not mixing their sexuality with their work performance, how generous of you

Again, how that I am being what I am and I am aware of my own sexuality and my own rights, so to speak, has to do anything with me being "medieval"?

Are you seriously asking why irrational tribalistic dislike of other groups of people over their traits that are completely beyond their influence and that don't affect you in any way, shape or form are you being medieval? Come on, you have the 300 IQ required to look at BfA and ignore the blatant repeat of MoP's plot points, I'm sure you can figure this one out.

What, everyone should accept homosexuality because its a trendy, modern things these days?

Or maybe because gays are your fellow human beings and ones that don't affect you in any way, just like, I dunno, left handed people? Or do you want to remove left handed people from cartoons too, because they are also icky and unclean and make you feel irrational dislike due to them being different?

First, I have absolute right to say that I am not accepting homosexuality. 2nd, it's not same shit as I would say "I am not accepting blacks" because I believe that people are same everywhere.

If you believe people are same everywhere then saying "I am not accepting homosexuals" is precisely the same as "I am not accepting blacks". If they are not the same you're arguing that homosexuals are different (and given the rest of your argumentation, different in an inherently worse way).

Because it's forced and it's an attempt to make kids accept things in early age, so it's easier on homosexual population and not on kids. Selfish reasons lead to bad results. This is not an exception and don't pretend like it's not forced. It was same shit with Overwatch when they made Tracer to be lesbian. Blizzard caved in to homosexual population and out of thin air they just made her homo.

Oh noes, kids accepting people with traits that don't impact them. What a travesty! Must be so hard on the kids. Obviously they should be instead influenced by bigots instead, because that's so much better for their upbringing and the society as a whole. Also, how is it forced in the first place?

I did not say anything about excluding them. I made personal observation of the situation. Take me for example, I did not have homosexuality in cartoons that I watched as kid. I still know homosexuals exists. Children should watch cartoons about defeating the evil, having heroes not about homosexuality. That is just some adult being a prick, trying to achieve something. Sexuality comes to any individual either way.

But kids can know about evil without learning about it in cartoons too. So how comes cartoons about evil are not forced? How comes those cartoons are not cases of just some adult being a prick, trying to achieve something? Oh, right, because you're special pleading, as fallacies is all you've got to justify your irrational attitude towards those icky gays.

I wonder, how long will it take before gay marriage becomes normal, instead of "gay propaganda"?

Also, what the hell even is "gay propaganda"?

It's showing gays in any other context than them being executed for the sin of being gay.

[Kalarm]

OMG, I'm really stunned when I learn how many people actively want to fight this.

It's 2 people who love themselves for fuck sake... How can you be so against that? How narrow minded do you need to be to go "I'd rather a girl sit on my face"? Like ok man, that's great and all but your taste is not the same as everyone else. Do you behave like this with everything? I don't like X fruit so there is no way anyone else actually enjoys it and thus I will fight against that fruit because people enjoying it is clearly propaganda!

This is just plain insanity. Let people live their live their lives. That goes for abortion too, I'd fucking leave that state forever if I was living there (Here comes the 12 year old going "Go ahead, we won't miss you kek").

[TheramoreIsTheBomb]

the governor is some old homophobic ugly bitch what did you expect? have you read what she said about abortion? she's a waste of oxygen. she's worse than trump

EDIT: With this being said, I have to tell you that I have yet to meet someone that thinks like this and actually acts like this.

First they wanted acknowledgement
Then they wanted tolerance
Then they wanted acceptance
And now they require celebration

If you arent celebrating them, youre the scum of the earth. Just tolerating that they exist isnt good enough

[Adam Jensen]

Silly yes but Arthur should be banned simply for being a shitty cartoon, it's almost as bad as that my little pony shit

I'm also not a fan of putting propaganda in children cartoons.

Oh, so now treating people with respect and giving them equal rights is "propaganda"

- - - Updated - - -

Nice attempt to brain wash kids that they should accept homosexuality from early age.

Oh yes, the horror of two consenting adults living their private lives happily together like normal people . . .

Gotta love the right wingers applauding this censorship while bitching about Youtube deplatforming alt right speakers.

Sure, APR has every right to ban this if they want, but it's still fucking pathetic.

[Tico]

Is the US going back to stone age?
Coal mines, abortion bans, and now this.

[Endus]

You're right. Just barely tolerating that they exist isn't good enough.

Especially when this "celebration" is only the same amount of "celebration" that hetero couples get regularly without anyone blinking an eye.

Stop trying to normalize your hateful, small-minded prejudice, and definitely stop trying to force it on kids.

Except when you see someone eat a piece of fruit you do not like, you dont have a physical reaction to it like many do when they see 2 men or 2 women french kissing on a park bench. Its more like watching someone eat a piece of rancid meat where it makes you gag

[Nokami]

As it should, no kid on earth should see something like that. Political gender propaganda is the worst, stop promoting abnormal behavior. You can be gay all day if you want, but stop pressing this behaviour on kids, it's not something that should be seen as the norm. Kids should experience the world as it is intended and not made up by some people.

Really? Where are the straight pride parades and festivals? Where is Straight history month?

[Halyon]

WTF is wrong with that state? Definitely a place I will never go to... not even to pass through.

Well, someone from Alabama, who disagrees with all this dumb shit, made the compelling argument that the only way they can keep the population count up is by forcing it. Gays and freedom of choice won't do it for'em.

[Endus]

Literally every single other parade and festival and month.

Had to look it up, lmao jesus christ thanks. Its like watching South Park, except its real.

You should see a therapist then, if someone else's harmless activity is causing you physical discomfort.

We can start having those when being straight is frowned upon . . . so never.

Wow, ok 2 things.

1: There is definitely some food which the sight would make me want to gag. I don't prevent people from eating it, not try to ban it from TV because I have a problem with it.

2: Many people have this gag effect when seeing 2 people kiss? I hope you never ever watched lesbian porn or something because that would be hypocritical as fuck. And that's also the fucking thing. You wouldn't find it disgusting if you were used to it young and didn't perceive it as unnatural. I don't like anything from the sea. It disgusts me. I wish my family would of ate more of it when I was young and that I would of thus got used to it. You are what your eduction makes you. You're disgusted by seeing 2 men kiss? Let the younger generation not have YOUR handicap.

[minteK917]

To me it sounds like he had a bunch of homo erotic dreams in the past, it makes him so nervous everytime he see things like that he wants to throw up and gags lmao. Thats why hes so furious about all this meaningless thing, you only get this serious when its personal. I can call it now Orlong beat his meat to some gay stuff once, now hes feels so guilty and tense about it, no wonder hes so up in arms for random cartoon shows.

Well, are you seeing a psychiatrist? You clearly have serious mental issues. This is not a joke. If you are equating gays to rancid meat in any way, you are either psychologically damaged, or complete scum. I choose to believe you’ll get the help you need, because otherwise, you’re just a degenerate who will lie sad and alone in the trash pile when you look back on your pathetic life. Again, I choose to believe you’re just damaged and can get the help you need.

I greatly dislike wannabe fascist trumpsters like yourself, but you’ve never made me physically ill.

I swear, almost all homophobia comes from repressed urges. They can't help but see themselves in that situation, and that image bothers them because of their homophobia, so they react with visceral disgust, because it put that image in their head.

The thing is, I'm a straight dude. Full-on, 100%. If my divorce didn't turn me gay, nothing's gonna. And my family would be supportive, if I did. I simply don't ever picture gay eroticism in my head, not unless I'm deliberately doing so for some reason that escapes me at the moment. I see a gay couple kissing, and it's just a couple of people kissing. I don't want to be in that mix, I'm not inserting myself into their kiss in my mind. Just because I'm not interested in it, why should I have any reaction at all? Visceral disgust shows that there's a heck of a lot more going on internally, it's not just "being straight". If you're straight, you spend basically zero time picturing and imagining gay sex. If you find yourself doing so regularly, and it's disgusting, you've got some pretty serious self-hatreds to work out.
