I'm going to try again here...

It's not that they don't CARE ABOUT IT. It's that THERE'S A TIME AND PLACE.

I think it's interesting how you are using the word "we" and "us" in ITT, as though we all have to agree and conform as a group. That's the root of the problem. Social justice conversations are fundamentally about trying to convert people to your religion, your groupthink. I'm sorry to tell you that many people will reject that approach on principle, no matter the topic of conversation.

I mean "we" in reference to society as a whole, not to social justice people or whatever.

And I can agree that there are times and places, and different people might draw the line differently, but a blanket policy that you should never talk about it when people are having fun seems like it's going too far, and that's exactly what people seem to be advancing. Sometimes you just gotta suck it up and deal with the fact that real life does intrude on fun stuff. It's part of being a grownup. Getting resentful about it is some dumb shit.

Says the killjoy who's so frustrated they can't just preach, preach, preach all the time. OK. Bye now.

Other people are not obligated to listen to you or cater to you. People are a lot more likely to listen to someone who isn't acting like an asshole and preaching at them all the time.
