FunBuns 596 Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 Well, now that @Robagaga quote back to me gained popularity, I can actually feel like I am about to deliver a message to: @Bloody Grammys, @hunty (actually surprised of you not understanding me), @Miley and @JustaMonster You guys liked and gave legitimacy to two very negative comments towards me. I said that it's obvious it'll be the case. Just look at the process LGBT made through the years. I was not understood correctly and it should never be the case. Even if you don't understand someone, do not give permission to online negativity. I told you the countdown is useless because it's not optimistic that it's going to happen but I knew it's going to be the case. Pay attention to things before you jump on comments like those ones. As a group, that could be very hurtful to someone who got those comments. And no one actually deserves them. Ignorant people don't deserve such comments as well, they already have to deal with ignorance, so why deal with bullying, too? Anyway, I'm glad I was right. More positivity. www.soundcloud.com/aphrodisio Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This really isn't the place to be arguing over such things. This is a time for Australians to come together in here and celebrate, and if people from other countries wanna come join in the moment, then cool. That goes for you all the people you tagged to.

Exactly and I am not arguing. If I can give them an example for kindness, I'd happily do it. Celebrate this historic moment, don't make people feel bad for being misunderstood. This goes to all of them, you and, I. www.soundcloud.com/aphrodisio Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, but your original comment came off as pretty rude whether you meant it that way or not. No one knew that it was going to be a yes so I dont understand why we needed to stop the countdown. I wasnt trying to bully anyone or anything but I just think the comment you made was uncalled for in this thread.. Hands up to the sky, I'm about to fly!

OMFG NOOO i was so confused at first and now i get it when @Robagaga said "never underestimate human ignorance" they weren't referring to YOU, they meant that you shouldn't underestimate the ignorant people who might vote no (just like we underestimated the trump votes). he's not attacking you, his statement is meant for the no voters. jesus christ why would we even attack you over this? sis omg this is gagadaily not middle school. chaeri pls Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
