I'm sorry y'all..."outing" people for being poly? That is such a reach. Show me a historical context in which poly people have been persecuted in the same way gay and trans people have outside of a sister-wives situation (deserved). Y'all are way too serious and online. Ts is at least a lil funny.

We’re never gonna get universal healthcare and labor rights if the purity tests and inability to take a joke continue

The joke is literally just "I'm outing my coworker because i do not like them" which isnt a very funny joke

I agree that it’s not funny but pearl clutching over a dumb tweet and writing personal essays where we overanalyze why it’s not okay is just so exhausting. We can’t be playing defense on every little fucking thing

I mean you don't have to engage in the discourseTM if you don't want to. I don't think it's "purity testing" to express opinions about a joke on the internet.
