"You've given me a multi-tweet shitstorm because I described something as racist. You're everything I hate about twitter."

It's not a shitstorm, it's a response. I'm sorry, Twitter sucks for discussing topics. It's not just about describing something as racist, it's the whole lot of social justice thinking. And I know you people hate that acronym 'SJW', but it exists for a reason. People are slowly getting more and more offended by things. And you know, that's fine, whatever. It's when double standards and demands for censorship are thrown in that it flies in the face of cries for equality.

"My patience is spent. I ran out over a year ago after getting slandered and doxxed by people who think like you."

That's a good example of what I'm talking about. Your side has plenty of doxxers, slanderers and people who give death threats. The difference is we generally don't play it up as much. And people don't seem to cause a fuss when a man is threatened online or doxxed. I know that may sound like bitter-neckbeard talk to you, but it's the truth. Here's an example you may have heard of: http://www.dailydot.com/geek/steven-universe-fanartist-bullied-controversy/

Those are the 'good guys' calling her racist, trans-mysoginistic and a fat-shamer. She allegedly attempted suicide because of it.

I used to be way more into civil rights, and I still am, but seeing the behavior of people getting offended by such small things, trying to get people fired for political opinions they don't share, telling people to kill themselves for having offended them, it's made me watch how I act in favor of these things because I don't want to come across as I've seen some who think like you have. This behavior has caused me to almost completely withdraw from being so politically correct. And there are many like me. You are creating these perceived monsters. Every 'side' has those who take it too far.

"Now please, pretty please with sugar on top, leave me alone before I block you."

The majority against SJWs still believe in equality, for gays, trans, all minorities. It's when slight disagreements over small parts come in and people start shutting down comment threads and blocking people because they're offended by these disagreements that people start to get annoyed. You may claim it's because we're a bunch of no good, dirty harassers, but I've seen plenty of simple disagreements turn into reasons for blocking. In fact, it's happening right now.

So please just think about that. I wasn't being facetious when I said you were a smart person. I love what I've seen of your videos.
