Description
"Just because you're disturbed, doesn't mean you're right."Doesn't the words in the stamp sound familiar?
Doesn't it remind you guys of this: "Just because you're offended, doesn't mean you're right"?
I don't fully agree, but when it comes to content NOT directed at you, or not directed at other people as effecting them negatively, then that quote is true.
And the same goes for this. Which is probably the same thing in some way. xD
I've seen people use "It's disturbing to some people." as an argument to call people out for uploading stuff like certain 'fetishes' for example.
Sorry but grow up. You find it disturbing? Great! I find your crap (e.g. Boobies, booty, and some others) that's NO better or worse disturbing too! Now move and with your life and GET OVER IT.
You know what IS disturbing as a legit problem for example though? Harassment toward people (e.g. A guy who put a penis on a train) for uploading stuff that isn't hurting anyone, nor forcing anyone to look at.
People are allowed to upload fetish stuff, people are allowed to say they want to have sex with an imagination character (No shit too when you look at Rule 34 for example), people are allowed to express themselves, and if you can't get over that fact, then you need to get help.

I don't really have a problem with fetish artists, as long as they use the mature filter, and don't break the terms of use. However, the problem I and most people have with fetish art is that it's often really in your face, and most fetish artists don't follow the rules of the website.

Well I don't agree that a fetish alone should be censored (anything can be in your face but you don't own the public area) but I do agree that if a fetish becomes too sexual that it does require a mature content then yeah that should be.

I think the argument is meant to be against this as an auto confirmation claim.
I've seen people (or at least one) use "I am disturbed" as an argument to go against other people's freedom of expression involving things not directed at them.

I just find it ironic how you are one of those people who values the feelings of people over other people's freedom of speech.

Like I said, there is SOME good reasons to be upset. I said this:
"I don't fully agree, but when it comes to content NOT directed at you, or not directed at other people as effecting them negatively, then that quote is true.
And the same goes for this. Which is probably the same thing in some way. xD"
And my claim was against speeches being thought out as "right" when (regardless of free speech or not) they can be argued to be wrong.

It doesnt matter if you feel that your anger isnt misguided, your feelings dont make you automatically correct or have the right to censor dissenting opinions. In the same way the feeling of certainty does not make you any more factually correct, which explains people who are very sure that they have the soul of a dragon or a wolf.

Short and to the point, easy to understand message that can also apply to other things, good job on this stamp!
I got one dude offended over the fact I defend vegans as much as meat eaters and acted like he was right over it, lol.

Personally I'm glad I was able to get a message more short.. Though not that I must but sometimes I find it better. lol
Thanks too!
I see. xD
Personally if I address meat lovers, I would address on how they get it. But eating meat it's self is just as harmless as a vegan.

You do not need a wall of text to get a message across, in fact, sometimes walls make it worse 
I am just sick of people getting butthurt over what other people put in their mouths, its nobody's business.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
But sometimes I do in order to explain deeper, or to argue certain things however.. I also remember you did at times too.
Sometimes if I don't explain deep enough, people would question some stuff. xD
Ah alright. xD

Yeah that is true, but if it has been explained before, there is no need to do it again.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I don't know if I already explained somewhere else.. Though sometimes old content is lost and unseen (unless maybe I put a link..?).
But yeah I remember this journal I made about culture and anthropomorphic comparing, and it needed a lot of explaining for that one. lol

You can just put the tumb codes to those old stamps in your new stamps description instead of re typing the same old argument xD people want variety after all.

Someone I was listening to on a radio show just said something similar. He was saying that this one woman at a college was crying that she was offended by something, and that no one should ever say anything offensive - but of course, what is "offensive" is subjective, and that woman might think it's ok to say one thing, but not another, and so who can really judge that and lay down actual rules about it?
Some people have this idea in their heads that they're allowed to tell someone else "you can't express that", because it offends them - but at the same time, I'm sure there's SOMETHING they themselves express which offends others, so instead of running around trying to prevent everyone from offending everyone else, how about we all just agree that it's okay to be a little bit offended sometimes, and to get over it, instead of trying to trample someone else's rights?
College campuses and Tumblr are chock full of those kinds of people, and I can't stand it.

I'm sorry, but it's bothering me that you're using "relative" to mean "subjective". It doesn't quite fit here.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I meant "relative to one's own experiences", but since that's a bit of a mouthful, I just changed it to subjective for ya, and I'll remember that for the future.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Yeah I think I agree.
The only fair complaining is if this offended thing was directed at the person (e.g. A negative post calling the person who's offended names in the public). But if something isn't directed at anyone in a direct negative way, I don't see any good reasoning. xD

Well yeah, I think something that causes direct harm to someone is definitely a different situation. I think "Freedom of Speech" has exceptions to it like that, like how you can't call "FIRE" in a theater - things that can cause real physical harm on a person.
I think instead of telling people what they can't say, we should be more focused on not letting those things they say or post bother us.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah I think it does...
Yeah unless it can effect people to think about others and directly. This can happen with certain posts about users sometimes. xD
