ew, i hate them already

martysee.bsky.social•15 days ago

I trust that you put their statement to the test by telling them to f*** off?

nojohn.bsky.social•15 days ago

I had a lovely chat

martysee.bsky.social•15 days ago

You're too kind 😊

martysee.bsky.social•15 days ago

But also probably right to avoid the drama.

nojohn.bsky.social•15 days ago

Haha, well the statement was less out of malice and more out of ignorance. Very young coworker too. Dialogue over vitriol (but that's not a popular opinion)

martysee.bsky.social•14 days ago

I've got mad respect for that approach. Which is more than I can say for any ignorance or malice...

wth.
"Some of my best friends are gay.....and don't tell me or my kids what to do"

Coworker flies off the handle when a queer person telss 'em to "have a nice day"

"HOW DARE YOU TELL ME WHAT TO DO"

Gay person told me to stay hydrated once, so I haven't drank anything since. The woke mob won't control me!

machinaezer0.bsky.social•15 days ago

That's so incredibly uncomfortable :( what the fuck

nojohn.bsky.social•15 days ago

It's fine, I had a good chat with them after

machinaezer0.bsky.social•14 days ago

That's good :( glad you felt comfortable doing that

I firmly believe that people like that are gay. They are genuinely terrified of what might have happened to them if it were allowed. They basically admit to being able to be turned gay.

ohdahlia.bsky.social•15 days ago

And by gay I mean Bi, but then again, many of them also hate women so idk. It’s a toss up wether or not they’re actually attracted to women or if they just think they are “supposed” to be.

demonpugo.bsky.social•15 days ago

Then I guess they’d hate me because the first thing I’m gonna do is tell them to shut up.

Words of desperation.

michelcouvreur.bsky.social•15 days ago

This will always get over me like, I would say back "I don't have an issue with straight people as long as they don't tell me or my kids what to do" and would like to see how they would make no sense of this.

nojohn.bsky.social•15 days ago

that'd require critical thinking on their part

chaseruni.bsky.social•15 days ago

This feels like code for "I won't respect pronouns."

nojohn.bsky.social•15 days ago

Part of me thinks they don't even know what those are

chaseruni.bsky.social•15 days ago

Oh I'm sure they don't. But you better not tell them how to use them!

nojohn.bsky.social•15 days ago

They wouldn't listen anyway 😂

nojohn.bsky.social•15 days ago

ah yes, queers. notorious for actively seeking out straight people to interact with

This is the shit my family comes out with - but will happily sit there and gobble it up when some rich normie says they're not being racist enough.

"I don't have an issue with the straights, as long as they stay the fuck away from my rights as a person" would be my only response to these twonks.

minnieraccoon.bsky.social•15 days ago

Ppl so confidently confide their homophobia to me all the time. Like ma'am??? Do you know who you're talking to 😬

julizapl.bsky.social•14 days ago

THIS HAPPENS TO ME SOMETIMES AND I HATE ITT

nojohn.bsky.social•15 days ago

That's... 🤦

churanah.bsky.social•15 days ago

My question is: "ok and if a gay person told you to have sex with someone of the same gender, would you?"

It's like these people forget they have free will.

doppledumb.bsky.social•15 days ago

It is crazy to me how fucking bigoted people become teachers and that they are the one spewing their bullshit around

nojohn.bsky.social•15 days ago

lowkey makes sense why all the gay kids come out to just me

doppledumb.bsky.social•15 days ago

I litteraly had to sacrifice idk how many hours because the kids had experienced racists, inappropriate or bigoted comments during a whole class and no one listens to them. There are no consequences to asshole behaviours.

One of my colleagues bullied a kid for 2 hours for wearing an abaya

doppledumb.bsky.social•15 days ago

And whenever you are in the teacher council, they say shit like "yeah but they are muslims so they are misogynistic and intolerant"

But they are litteraly the worst pieces of shit like pedophiles, racists, homophobes.

And they are jealous that the kids like you in return of course

nojohn.bsky.social•15 days ago

bxl seems like a nightmare to work in. ghent is very much keeping up the appearance of being progressive so there's less of that...openly, at least
