YEAH AND? SOUNDS TOTALLY REASONABLE. I SUFFER FROM A HEART DISEASE THAT MAKES ME STRUGGLE TO BREATHE SO I NEED A TRIGGER WARNING

What's so bad about it? Even if you find it annoying, it might be protecting someone else who does actually need the warning. Just because you don’t understand something made for disabilities doesn't mean that it’s ridiculous or stupid.

it’s not that people don’t understand, it’s that people need to grow a pair and not be so sensitive to everything. if they’ve had a problem with food or whatever, that’s a shame (i’ve had an eating disorder!!!) but yeah this is stupid, being triggered by discussion on food is pathetic (you need to stop being so sensitive and fucking grow some balls)

TW sorry i forgot hopefully you won’t have a heart attack

Its not that the average person needs it, probably less than 0.1% of people need it, but it helps a lot for those few who do (usually people with some form of severe anxiety or other disability), just because they are a very small minority does not mean that sensitivity to their issues is ridiculous.

Are you trying to stir up a debate…?

I just wanted to share my thoughts. I think i need to be vocal about this stuff so woke agendas don’t become a norm

3/21/2024, 7:38:21 AM
cheesewhisk3rs:

Fair - although the wording isn't exactly showing that. Sorry for assuming that.

i´m even more allergic to people who say woke and agenda in the same sentence without joking/talking about netrunner

Fucking ridiculous

“fucking ridiculous” is when you tell people what’s in a post before you open it

what? no, that’s an actual thing

3/20/2024, 10:10:03 PM

ok and

3/20/2024, 9:08:03 PM
lily:

so what

that’s totally reasonable

3/20/2024, 9:05:24 PM
chiroyce:

“totally” is very much a huge stretch

3/21/2024, 5:15:44 PM
lily:

not at all

3/21/2024, 10:11:56 PM
chiroyce:

why?

3/22/2024, 4:05:59 AM
lily:

i think being polite enough to not jumpscare people with stuff they don't want to see is reasonable

3/22/2024, 9:51:32 AM
chiroyce:

Maybe re-read my reply? I was asking why it is “totally” reasonable (as you said) - I don’t think it is very common in any society to use warnings for images or verbal descriptions of food.

3/22/2024, 5:51:04 PM
lily:

the internet is not just “any society” lol

3/22/2024, 6:10:26 PM
chiroyce:

1) portal’s teacher used it in school not on the internet and 2) the internet comprises of people from all over the world

3/22/2024, 6:14:44 PM

  1. and?

  2. exactly

3/22/2024, 6:15:56 PM
chiroyce:

I will rephrase, I don’t think it is very common anywhere to use warnings for images or verbal descriptions of food.

i feel like you would explode if you touched fedi tbh

3/22/2024, 7:44:47 PM
portalpower:

You’ve said this a bunch but not explained why it’s bad, other than wording it so.

i feel like you would explode if you went outside and talked to the average human

i do that a lot, most of them are cool but a lot of them are racist and homophobic which is annoying
