Responses that completely destroy the original argument in a way that leaves little to no room for reply - a targeted, well-placed response to another person, organization, or group of people.
The following things are not grounds for murder:
- Personal appearance ("You're fat", "You're ugly")
- Posts with little-to-no context
- Posts based on a grammar/spelling error
- Dick jokes, "Yo mama", "No, you" type responses and other low effort insults
- "Your values are bad" without any logcal or factual ways of showing that they are wrong ("I believe in capitalism" - "Well, then you must be evil" or "Fuck you you ignorant asshole")
Rules:
- Be civil and remember the human. No name calling or insults. Swearing in general is fine, but not to insult someone else.
- Discussion is encouraged but arguments are not. Don’t be aggressive and don’t argue for arguments sake.
- No bigotry of any kind.
- Censor the person info of anyone not in the public eye.
- If you break the rules you’ll get one warning before you’re banned.
- Enjoy the community in the light hearted way it’s intended.

Must be great to have your feelings acknowledged by acting like a dick rather than understanding anything remotely in an empathetic way. Not a believer but thought Jesus preached helping not acting like an asshole. Oddly went to a few religious schools but probably ones they didnt consider correct. Jesus had good ideas, but maybe you needed some leeway is all (okay that's sort of my Dogma movie take but I don't think it works). For the record not directed at who I'm replying to just adding to commentary.
Like whenever did Jesus say act like a complete asshole to someone? I'd like one of those types to answer that once and say how their beliefs aren't acting like a complete asshole to. It's infuriating. Have some freaking compassion.
Sorry this whole religious bit makes me rant because it's awful. Love thy neighbor is not hard to understand.
