Responses that completely destroy the original argument in a way that leaves little to no room for reply - a targeted, well-placed response to another person, organization, or group of people.
The following things are not grounds for murder:
- Personal appearance ("You're fat", "You're ugly")
- Posts with little-to-no context
- Posts based on a grammar/spelling error
- Dick jokes, "Yo mama", "No, you" type responses and other low effort insults
- "Your values are bad" without any logcal or factual ways of showing that they are wrong ("I believe in capitalism" - "Well, then you must be evil" or "Fuck you you ignorant asshole")
Rules:
- Be civil and remember the human. No name calling or insults. Swearing in general is fine, but not to insult someone else.
- Discussion is encouraged but arguments are not. Don’t be aggressive and don’t argue for arguments sake.
- No bigotry of any kind.
- Censor the person info of anyone not in the public eye.
- If you break the rules you’ll get one warning before you’re banned.
- Enjoy the community in the light hearted way it’s intended.

Women have for millennia been taught that their role is to be subservient to men so this will get a downvote from me.
I don't see how that follows, like the joke is the dad buying his daughter a taser because the other guy is being a creep, but that's your prerogative.
Oops. Didn't properly see the bottom comment. I just saw the top one and reacted to it. I didn't realize it was the bottom comment we were supposed to agree with. (I read it but just woke up and didn't process it.) Changing my downvote to an upvote.
