"I'm fed up of this "political correctness". I'm fed up of it all, blacks, gays, trans, equality, autism, and all the pandering/mollycoddling that comes with it. The likes of universities are amongst the worst. "We need to know your demographic so that we can enforce equality". Oh my god, the way to be inclusive, to "enforce" equality is to just treat everyone the same! How hard is that? Blacks - just treat them exactly the same as whites. It's just a skin colour for fucks sake. Gays, who honestly cares? My brother is gay. What's the relevance? He can still be treated with respect and included. Trans - feel free. Do whatever is right for you. Wear women's clothes for work, do whatever you want - it's fine with me. We have urinals, toilets, women's toilets, "accessible" toilets. Use whichever you want! Be mindful that if you look like a guy though, you may concern girls in toilets (for good reason). That's all. We don't need "gender free" toilets though - it's a massive inconvenience when you're forced to wait 20 minutes to use a toilet when previously, you could wait 20 seconds to piss in a urinal. Equality was getting ridiculous. It seems to have calmed down now. Girls - if you love computer science, come! We need more women! We need more women in maths. We need more female builders. We all get the piss taken out of us, just do whatever you love regardless. Autism, I'm autistic. You don't to mollycoddle us. You don't need to make a massive fuss (unless it's an extremely bad case). Just encourage like you would with any other child/person! Treat us the same as everyone else - it's easy. Literally, just try to treat everyone the fairly, with respect. It's so easy. When you start pushing these "factions", you're segregating them, fracturing society, etc. I'm fed up of it. As regards the "inclusivity" agenda, how can it be inclusive if it doesn't include straight people? It's an exclusivity agenda, designed to give power to minorities in my opinion. Then again, what do I know?" Equality was getting ridiculous? Women in Afghanistan aren’t allowed to talk to each other. Women in USA are dying in car parks from ectopic pregnancies due to abortion bans. Violence against women has been deemed a national emergency in the UK. Have your homophobia, transphobia, misogyny, whatever, I’m used to it, but saying that equality is getting ridiculous is awful and you and I both know that. | |||

All I will say is, when you’re looking at achieving equality or equity, you should stop looking at these issues on an individual level and start considering the systems and structures that prevent these things despite you or whoever else feeling like you’re a nice person. I know it’s annoying for you, I know you’re tired. Imagine how tired we are. | |||

"As ever, both sides in a debate picking the most egregious behaviour of the "opposing" side and fighting the straw man argument that assumes everyone with a slightly different opinion espouses all these heinous opinions. The reality? Most people sit somewhere relatively close to centre. Most people believe their opinions are moral - and therefore believe anyone who doesn't share them is immoral and to be decried. The result is a bunch of people, most of whom would, if brought together irl, get on absolutely fine and enjoy each others company are suddenly mentally labelling each other as people to be dispised, or at the very least, disliked. I wonder how many blocks this thread will spark? One day humans will learn what true empathy means. So many claiming to possess this ability actually mean they get a vicarious pleasure imagining the pain of others and are especially able to share the feelings of those with similar opinions. True empathy means not only feeling these emotions but being able to feel and understand how people with different opinions feel. Instead, we ascribe our own imagined feelings to those who we disagree with. We refuse to see how their opinions come from their own moral feelings and insist instead they must come from negative emotions like control, hate, lack of consideration etc. The utter irony of some of the comments above would be funny were it not the source of so much division, and that goes for people on both sides. Having said the above, I'm struggling to find empathy with the OP, I don't understand what they hoped to achieve with the thread. My instinctive view, is that it screams defensiveness caused by a feeling of being attacked. I am aware I am scrubbing a negative emotion to their actions so would be interested to hear their reasoning.
