so i saw this thread >> https://brokenlens.xyz/forums/threads/please-dont-get-mad.63704/
i hadn't seen the aforementioned "What's your worst fear?" thread so, having basically no context whatsoever of the situation i was like "okay that's very nice of retro to write" but when i read the replies i started to wonder what actually happened so i went to the thread and read pages 3 to 5 and well.
going off the fact that erin and phoe are brutally honest with their comments i'm gonna make this post pretty brutal too. i'm sorry but i'm just tired of this bull okay??
okay so from what i gather, this all started because erin said something about Christianity and then phoe chimed in a while later with something even worse (which i read and i'm not going to mention because just. wow ok).
erin, you said that you're grandmother is christian as well and that you were only saying it "to get banned". that honestly makes just about zero sense to me because you're not only disrespecting your own culture (well, your grandmother's, but i assume you share the same culture & religion) you're doing it to get banned from a minecraft forum when you can just.. well, leave? also, getting banned off of the forums doesn't mean it immediately erases every memory you have. it just means you can't come back which isn't exactly helpful considering if you know how to then you can just end up viewing the threads anyway. (although you can't create an account since you're, well, banned and everything.)
phoe, something you need to learn is that there is a fine line between saying something that might come off as rude but is true/necessary and saying something that's just outright disrespectful. i get it, you're brutally honest and everything but you're given an option between pressing the "Post Reply" button and not pressing it. you say a lot of things but honestly i think you should stop, and consider what you're saying, okay? because a lot of the time you end up offending quite a few people. yes, sometimes you say things that need to be said, but other times... you probably shouldn't.
also, retro, sure freedom of speech and all means that technically people are allowed to say whatever they want. but does that mean i can go to every thread of yours and point out everything wrong with it? does it mean that i can every offensive term i can think of toward people i dislike? no, i doesn't. even if people have a harsh opinion, that doesn't mean they can't word it nicely. or sometimes, you can just not say anything.
phoe, erin, i don't want you to change completely. i like your honesty, but i just want you to be nicer. it won't kill you to be nice to people. the nicer you are to others then the nicer they are to you.

I just wanted to point out that freedom of speech doesn't mean saying anything is ok
