Hypocrisy

I recently got this, I very politely put my opinion out there. And got this as a response, that we are not allowed to talk about sexuality or politics. IS THIS NOT IRONIC?! you made a post about the lgbtq community, a group centered around sexuality and things related to that. Why is is when I say something that people dont agree with it gets taken down? There is a reason why I stick to 4chan for talking and posting, because my stuff doesnt get taken down for offending somebody or violating "rules". Riot clearly violated their own rules by posting about the pride icon. Why is it they are allowed to post what they like but we can not respond in our own way. I was very civil about my post which is quite rare for me. Also right away I was insulted for putting my opinion out there.

Does hypocrisy exist or not, because I can see it quite clearly.

The thread effectively says purchase this if you want to support these individuals. Nothing more. It is not a political or social discussion. If you don't want to support LGBTQA individuals that is your prerogative, but the boards are not the place to discuss your religious beliefs about their identities or their morality, just like the boards are not the place for individuals to discuss their beliefs about your religion or your morality.

The boards are also not the place to discuss your perception of which individuals or groups are being oppressed, nor which individuals or groups are doing the oppressing.

If you want to come to the Discord, I will be more than happy to explain my position on this, as someone who actually grew up on a farm in a very rural area.

You brought up religion and what you think is moral out of nowhere, so that's pretty much derailing the conversation.. You, uh, also quite clearly equated being a conservative with being oppressed for your orientation.
