Southerners and women and gays and Catholics all suck [View All]

:eyes:

I started a thread yesterday praising DU as being a safe and wise port in the storm. When something bad happens (9/11, the war, the blackout), there is no better place than this.

Conversely, we also seem amazingly adept at eating ourselves. I don't know how we do it, but we do it. We manage to offend women, Catholics, homosexuals, southerners, northerners, etc. Why does this happen? Is it all trolls?

No. It is what it is. People, for all their liberal leanings, can be as stupid and bigoted and narrow-minded as any freeper. People can be the product of their environment. If that environment touts these things, it is going to come through.

Anyone who loves women, southerners, northerners, homosexuals, Catholics, etc., drop your name in below. Maybe we need to remind people that ignorance is not a badge of honor, not worthy of us, and something to be repudiated.
