when you display frothing rage (and I fully agree with ayrt that that is what you are doing)

Really? Because I don't. Anger, yes, but not "frothing rage."

say things like "all bronies are bad!" without doing anything to back it up (you have proved beyond a doubt that SOME bronies are bad but sorry, not buying the "all" bit just because you say so)

As I've said time and time again in this thread, the very LABEL "brony" is bad, wrong, and misogynist, ergo, yes, all bronies are bad. All people who "proudly" wear the label of brony and/or defend the bronies are enablers of misogynists, racists, homophobes, transphobes, and ableists if not outright misogynists, racists, homophobes, transphones and ableists themselves.

(and this is not the only generalization I've seen you make about groups of people)

Your.. point? Yes, I do generalize. If 99% of Group A does X, I think it's safe to say "Group A does X." If the entire establishment / upper echelon of a subculture does Y, it's safe to say "members of this group enable Y or do Y."

as well as being insulting and dismissive of those you agree with

Did you mean "disagree" here? Otherwise it makes no sense.

even in the same breath as trying to tell them to get themselves educated (and you would be surprised how many people do actually want to do that - just not while they are considered lesser beings and piles of shit while they are still ignorant, because seriously, who wants to turn into someone who says that about ignorant people?)

It is not my responsibility or my JOB to educate people ~nicely and politely~ on how not to be a bigot or why and how something is bigoted -- even if I often do just that because people make me feel obligated (see the "Derpy" links I found above). And in this thread I've only had one person ask for info/education from me, which I gave fairly politely -- unless you expected me to not tell the anon I still thought they were an asshole when they did me the same "favor" first.

it is very hard to take you seriously.

Oh, well, believe me, making sure some anon on f!s takes me seriously is my very top priority.

Also, really? Who is going to do a fucking Google search before buying a funny t-shirt?

I'm not asking them to Google it before buying the shirt. I don't care about the shirt. They should Google it before they go around calling themselves by a certain label. jfc.

Should be be obsessively policing every aspect of our lives and triple-checking everything we say, do, buy and enjoy for political correctness?

No. But when someone is confronted with a huge pile of shit done by a group they associate with.. the appropriate response is not "but I didn't know about it, so not all [X] are bad since I'm not bad!" The appropriate response is "oh shit, I didn't know about this, I'll educate myself and consider distancing myself from this group."

However, it is really hard to take you seriously after a certain amount of time because I really only see you spewing venom at people, even over the slightest provocations (or lack thereof).

Then you haven't really been paying attention. I get pissed off at bigots and bigotry. I get pissed off over some things, and yeah, a lot of times I use f!s for venting because that's, you know, half the point. And I am incredibly fucking tired of sexism and bullshit and other -isms in both my media and my fandoms. REALLY FUCKING TIRED OF IT. So yes, I get angry. Sue me.

I don't know if I've ever seen you be NICE to someone - neutral aloofness at best.

Again, haven't been paying attention. At least I can rest assured that you're probably not one of my f!s stalkers.

I also think you are very narrow-minded.
