      Ah federation can do that. Though I also just happened to see it at like 1 min old when I started replying. :\

      My point isn’t about them being gay, more that when you turn something that should otherwise be neutral into an insult because you don’t like the person, it can speak to a deeper bias that one may otherwise be blind to.

      Like if you have a partner cheat on you, and we are shit talking them and I say “Yeah, and I bet their from fucking Detroit too”, there is a little bit of like “wait, what’s wrong with people from Detroit?”

      Some folks feel similarly about when people jump to gay jokes with political figures they disagree with. In .ml fashion they are quite decisive in their take on the matter.
