@Alolan_Apples just because someone disagrees with you doesn't mean that they hate you. With that logic everyone would have to hate everyone because you can't agree about everything.
I learned that a long time ago. Yeah, I may have overdramatized the recent incidents with my user title and signature, but it’s not if people couldn’t agree with me. What I don’t like is receiving a negative reputation from others (which includes liking a post that attacks me or just simply attacking me). I’ll go ahead and remove the user title and signature since that would make the entire site feel bad, especially to those that weren’t involved. However, there will always be people who hate others for simply disagreeing with them (not just here, but everywhere).
EDIT: Just changed my signature and user title. I don’t know if the socialism part would cause any problems, but that second part is just asking for trouble.
Onto the subject of George Floyd, this time, I’m for the victim of the police than for the police. The reason why I would be more for the police in prior incidents is because the victim is resisting an arrest and chose to fight the cops. But this time, the victim wasn’t resisting an arrest. The cop chose to use excessive force, and on a man that had breathing problems. What I don’t support is violence over the incident. I would allow discussion of George Floyd (and even allowed others to talk about it on my America opinion thread), but if another site doesn’t allow discussion, I support their right to forbid discussion. Even for something as serious as this, you can’t force others to agree with you, force others to get involved, or accuse others of racism for not allowing discussion. The logic of “if you’re not with me, you’re against me” needs to stop, but the logic of “if you’re not fully with me, you’re fully against me” is a new low.
