Sorry everyone. I guess this is my fault for calling out Dave because he obviously has distain for anyone with a different opinion. What the other guys problem is I still haven’t figured out. I still don’t know what he means. But then again my wife always tells me I’m not very bright so there you go.

JFC. I'm not asking you to change your opinion, as ass-backwards as it is. I just want you, and others on this thread to stop making transphobic jokes. It's not funny to make fun of a vulnerable minority. If you can't see that, then you really are not very bright.

Jokes about other people or groups can be funny. Not every joke in this thread is funny and some are offensive to one person or another. Everyone else just moves on and ignores the ones they don’t like. You should try it because you might feel better doing so.

Name one group of people we haven't made fun of. I'm pretty sure we mock everyone here, as we should. Everyone is fair game.

There are no safe spaces in the real world. There is always risk. There is always turmoil. There is always someone who will mock you and belittle you for any flaw they see. Sometimes we laugh at those people. Sometimes we cry, but we don't go crying to a higher authority to ask them to stop making fun of us.

If your group, or any other special group, wants to be treated normally, then act normal. Don't demand others to change for you. Don't move to a foreign country and refuse to learn the language and customs. Don't be the new guy at work and start barking orders and making change.

The long held definition of male is "of, relating to, or being the sex that typically has the capacity to produce relatively small, usually motile gametes which fertilize the eggs of a female." You have (maybe had) a penis, testicles, and prostate. If you want to cut them off and turn them inside out, that is your choice, but you don't get to demand that we call you female.

Yeah, you have problems. Big ones. You need help which doesn't involve surgery. Try a psychiatrist. Or testosterone injections. Or whatever. No matter what your choice of solution is, it doesn't involve the rest of the world.

Do you thing. Live your life. Quit demanding others bow to your will.

Wow that’s a total lie. I never made a trans phobic joke. Not that I’m against them but I personally never did it. All I said and your post I just quoted here proves it, is that you have serious problems with people that have different opinions than you and if you think for one second that I believe it only has to do with gender confusion then you’re fooling yourself. This has little to do with that and everything to do with ideology. Your attitude of hatred and anger toward anyone that has the audacity to have a different opinion than you is very common with most people that think the way you do. I see it all the time. Now I’m done here. I won’t respond to you again on the subject.

Sorry. No. You can be whatever you want, man, woman whatever and I 100% support you’re right to be whatever you want. I don’t care. Why? Because it has no effect on my life and my freedom.

However you CAN’T tell other people what they can and can’t say. Sorry. I don’t care if it wasn’t even a joke and was 100% purely done to offend you on purpose. Too bad soo sad. Lots of things are not funny. If you can’t handle it don’t come in here then. That simple. You can handle getting shot at but a couple pixels on a screen and you lose your shit? Gimme a break.

I stop supporting your freedom to be whatever you want once you decide you now have to infringe on my freedom to say what I want or listen to whatever jokes I want.

Everyone on this site has to adhere to the rules:

13) NO RACISM ALLOWED. No posts which disparage any groups based on race or religion allowed. Most people who decide to post racist and hateful posts follow-up with some diatribe on freedom of speech. Please remember this is a BMW forum designed for all BMW fans, regardless of race, religion or any other difference. Period. The End.

The administrators of this site have decided to exclude "posts which disparage any groups based on race or religion."

I think it is interesting to contemplate why do they permit posts that disparage vegans, LGBTQ, obese, etc.

Maybe the answer is as simple as what their advertisers require from them -- not sure.

I'm all about Free Expression, and I believe that we should be able to joke about anything really. But the sad fact is that if folks don't get their shit together and park this then the Mod's will take this forum down like they did with the political memes thread. That was a real shame.

I come here for the cool pics, lol, and almost exclusively off topic stuff. If that goes than likely so will I. Folks, if something offends maybe PM the person and have the discussion off line so as to not get the whole thing cancelled. Because that is what we are talking about here aren't we. If you don't like something than change the channel don't cancel it.

Peace

Maybe just ban this Patton250 and let's move on with our lives. I called for a move on maybe 2 pages ago and this is still going on…

Trying one last time to bring it back on track.

I'm pretty sure if you go back through all 817 pages you'll find something making fun of just about everyone.

first black people joke is on page 8. This also doubles as jokes aimed at dead people.

It does come after white people joke, all bmw driver joke, women joke and various jokes focused on animals (who don't even have a voice to defend themselves). I didn't see any indigenous people jokes before page 10, but if I need to I can keep looking.

Edit: It looks like we began addressing people's feelings all the way back in 2018:
