    I agree with that, but it pisses me off because the loud obnoxious folks repel new people.

      If all it takes is loud and obnoxious to turn you away from your convictions then they weren’t very strong to begin with.

        We don’t get turned from our convictions. We get turned away from communities we hoped to join to help us enact those convictions.

        Or, you know, it could turn someone away who is honestly ignorant and curious to learn more. But keep being a condescending piece of shit, that’ll work out great.

        You’re reading into my comment too far. I just said I find it annoying and counterproductive, I didn’t say I’ve changed my convictions.
