Ill try to film and upload video to youtube of an exploding cat if i'll ever encounter one.
The "format" Rstank used is standard ally-speak of anything. It is meant for people who are looking for unique insight into whatever perspective. It's great for a site on feminism, cisgender, etc. That being said, it isn't the best tone to use on a traveling forum. While most people here probably agree with you, they might see this as condescending. IE: omg time to educate you 4narchists lolol.
My point indeed ...
Back to the topic about tolleration, helping each other out, etc...
Different people come from differenct backgrounds/countries/continents and their view on everything is formed in the early years by the view of society/parents/educational system and if the intolerant view is formed strong enough there is only 1 to 100000 chance that their views will ever change on the subject of matter. For example here in Lithuania, we only got our freedom and got to know western culture on 1991 03 11, before that there were no homosexuals, no transgenders etc (well there maybe was but they were hiding it from society) because the soviet union knew everything, even "what are you doing in bed under the blanket". So if a homosexual person would have been caught he would have been put up to a mental institution or so. And this thing lasted for 50years, so in 50 years our grandparents got their view that being queer is BAD, our parents go the view that homosexuality is BAD, and we got our brains washed from early age that its BAD. Not many tried to look "deeper" into the whole thing and get to know everything better, but 95% of lithuanians thinks homosexuality is bad. If you would say that you are gay out loud in the public, people of age 30+ would just think "queer"... but people 15-25years old would smack you in the face with no questions asked. And advocating for sexual minorities "Being GAY is OK" etc.. (you got the point) or trying to educate them that it isn't queer, thats just how the nature goes, makes them more angrier and more intollerant. So in here situation is that "YOU CAN'T BLOW AGAINST THE WIND"...
To add to that, in here, in russia, in poland swear words such as Pydar, Pedik, Pedal, Petuch (all means homosexual) are the strongest curse words, if you want to pick up an instant fight, call someone these words...
