Yeah you do. Look at like, every game thread you've ever made or something like that. You push GOG sales on me, indiewhateverthatsiteis and other things. And your hatred for EA. That's your problem dog, not mine.

From hereon I would like all posts concerning trigger warnings to be clearly noted as such, preferably using a relatively large piece of text at the beginning of the content.

********'s a pretty good fertilizer
Trigger warning is dumb, but I hope I got something right in saying that this isn't about us, but the few unfortunate enough. Ok sure, it is hampering free speech, enforcing ****py social standard on us(jazz hand wtf), all the while those f***ers munching cookies and holding plush toys whenever shjt goes beyond PG 13. Yet consider how lucky we are and how little do we have to give, if this thing ever goes live, we shouldn't be condescending. The fact that we can have nonchalant conversation about another one's problem that we are nowhere near miserable enough to understand is proof enough.

I want y'all to actually think about this for a second though. Freedom of speech is simply the political right to be able to communicate one's opinions and ideas. This has nothing to do with freedom of speech. In a purely legal sense, you are not being censored or in any other way oppressed as far as free speech goes by being asked to include trigger warnings/disclaimers. On top of that, saying "well, if they have a problem, they should just get the **** off the internet (and get help)" is actually, ironically, closer to impinging on a person's right to freedom of expression (which usually includes the freedom to seek information).
Talk about sounding like a 14 year old misandrist on Tumblr: "waaah, some person I don't want to understand or care about asked me to put a warning on my content because she found it disturbing, I'm being oppressed!!!1!!"
Trigger warnings are like ratings on movies. There to indicate content and appropriateness for the viewer/reader. Just the way you wouldn't want a 5 year old to watch an R18+ movie, you wouldn't want someone who suffers from depression reading about aided suicide (or whatever other example would best clarify my meaning - I need sleep).
Never used trigger warnings myself though. I rarely discuss things that would excite anxiety in someone (okay, maybe grades, but thank god teacher-parent interviews night went by without a hitch!).

Well in case you're referring to anything I've written as nonchalant I'm just gonna tell you to **** right off. You know nothing about me, don't act like you do.
Only one of the many people that have written their thoughts have been nonchalant about it.
"I sexually Identify as an Attack Helicopter. Ever since I was a boy I dreamed of soaring over the oilfields dropping hot sticky loads on disgusting foreigners. People say to me that a person being a helicopter is Impossible and I’m ****ing ******ed but I don’t care, I’m beautiful. I’m having a plastic surgeon install rotary blades, 30 mm cannons and AMG-114 Hellfire missiles on my body. From now on I want you guys to call me “Apache†and respect my right to kill from above and kill needlessly. If you can’t accept me you’re a heliphobe and need to check your vehicle privilege. Thank you for being so understanding." - Guuse
