Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
HELP
I have family that are telling me that I am anti gay. I tell them that I am not anti gay, I am anti Government control. I am trying to tell them that the bud light thing has nothing to do with gay person, but it has all to do with the government agenda.
How else can I explain this?
What is your family’s motive for using the “antigay” label as a weapon against you? Are they trying to contrast themselves as not being antigay? Are they trying to cut you down to raise their own status?
My tolerance is getting pretty low for those who try to attack decent people by using the word-weapons of the communists.
Or how about..what does it matter if you were anti gay?
Even if you were anti gay, they do not even amount to 5% of the population said to be LGBT. Probably about 2% population total, meaning at most 6 million people across an entire country. What does it truly matter?
Ask them if they know anyone who has owned and played a Disgaea game. A video game series that has sold about 6 million copies across in its lifetime.
The answer for most Americans is no. Unless you walk into the dealer room of a video game or anime convention and ask everyone you see, everywhere else the answer will be no. And even at those conventions, most of those gamers will have never played one.
The media and government have conditioned everyone to believe gays are everywhere or that the gay best friend trope is actually common when it is absolutely not. The internet is an echo chamber that does not reflect real life.
Online, you can find plenty of people who have played a Disgaea game.
Likewise, try to find someone in real life who has played a Trails of Cold Steel game. That series in its life time between 4 games has only sold a million copies total in the US. Finding one of those is like finding a trans. Case in point...

LGBT statistic is inflated by bisexual women. https://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/3879668-in-lgbtq-america-bisexuals-are-the-invisible-majority/
And this falls short of it because research shows women with bisexual tendencies in heterosexual relationships tend not to self report so truth be told, bi women will probably always be around but gays and trans will probably go extinct
We can not allow the cabal to redefine society over a truly miniscule section of humanity. Literally letting a single drop of ink over take a clean surface...
Regardless of how many people there are, would it make sense for someone to be Anti-Disgaea players for no reason other than they bought the game? What's the reasoning for that? It just seems weird holding that feeling without much reasoning
I would agree but there is a major difference (and this is why Disgaea players is a good parallel)
Disgaea players aren't lobbying on every level of society (politics, law, media, entertaibment, education, etc) to change video gaming as a whole or replace or redefine entire genres of video games to suit their needs (forcing for example, the next Call of Duty to be a turn based anime strategy game)
On the other hand, LGBTs already have done this. They redefined marriage, are redefining gender, and are even trying to redefine sex. Their culture is infiltrating everything from the way women do makeup to how people conduct their business or relationships, even some churches are pandering to them.
Gay people aren't forcing anyone to do anything different though. You can still have straight marriage, and straight sex. Nobody is stopping you from doing that.
You dont need to explain this to anyone. Just state your point:
"I believe gay people should have the same rights as everyone else, and just that. I dont believe LGBT propaganda must be pushed on folks all over the place, least of all, in schools"
If they hear it, they hear it. Otherwise they don't. Either way its not your problem.
As for personal relationships - the day you took the journey to truth, you know that it might take you away from pretty much everything you have held dear so far. That is the nature of truth in a world filled with lies.
THANK YOU!!!!
So perfectly said!
