(This was a joke, in case you couldn't tell)

It was a bad joke. I deleted it.

@admitsWrongIfProven Yeah. I'm turning over a new leaf on this account. No more edgy jokes for me.

@light Jokes are a form of expression. Are you judging forms of expression?

Not actually criticising you, but what is the criterion?

@light Loving yourself is not actually that different from loving others. You are human, they are. Your bad jokes are no worse than mine, yet we still acknowledge that both of us should be allowed to exist, yes?

@admitsWrongIfProven I'm just following the Golden Rule. I don't like seeing offensive jokes against groups I belong to, so I want to stop making offensive jokes about groups I don't belong to.

@light Did anyone argue against it? I did not see such a thing, was it lost in the deletion?

@light I can't say i was surprised. I can, however, say that i am happy for muting him.

Pathetic. An anti-feminist wanna be, but he did not actually prop you up, even though (as far as i know) you have a penis.

He's not worth the effort. Don't try to understand, he does not.

@admitsWrongIfProven Did we read the same post?
He's clearly not being anti-feminist.

@light He is just saying "by a man", and that's it. Hating men for being men is sexist. And hey, the kind of feminism i subscribe to says no sexism, in no direction.

Please do assert yourself. You might sometimes not catch all sensibilities of people, but you do way better than taylan. He is just more in line with society normal, nothing substantial.

@admitsWrongIfProven @light

Did he mean "be a man"? (I'm addressing him in the third person since he has me muted.) Dunno what this guy is smoking, since I've said no such thing.

Weird behaviour to mute people and then thrash them behind their back by making up stuff.
@admitsWrongIfProven @light

Oh I guess he's referring to the fact that I said "> tale is written by a man". :blobcat-eyeroll:

@admitsWrongIfProven At the end, he said 'This is literally the middle age[s] version of anti-feminist guys who say "women just want privileges and power over men."'
Doesn't look like he's directing it at all men.
But also, separately, he's okay with virulently anti-male "feminist" posters on fedi like Emma Faber. So yeah, he's probably sexist against men. But not in that post AFAICT.
