ORIGINAL: WikedUncle If people mean to share a means of communication, they need to learn to share the space, and do it without fatuous implications that the values of anyone who disputes the like-minded (Dare we read, pure-minded?) must necessarily be reprehensible. Ah, but it was not implied that anyone who disputes the views of a subgroup are viewed as reprehensible. There are MANY views out there. Some of them I agree with. Others I do not. And some I find reprehensible. There ARE people in this "lifestyle" who have no qualms about partaking in abuse, rape, snuff, and many things I'm not even allowed to mention here. They have simply learned to keep their mouths shut (most of the time) when using certain mediums. Yes, I will loudly and clearly state that I find those people reprehensible, and don't want them in my social circle. If you want to hang out with them in the name of open-mindedness and acceptance, feel free. As I've said before, my morals and ethics are not in place to be bent by popular demand.
