Invalid Report: Not an April Fools Joke Joke Reported: Dumb Joke by OkCupid

I don't think it's actually an April Fools joke because it looks like it started yesterday: http://www.bbc.com/news/technology-26830383

While sometimes we do allow reports of any bad joke, since you had the bad (and even more rude/offensive/extreme) joke prior, you who deserve the negative comedian reputation as much as them. Marking as invalid on many levels!

How about this URL, does it magically change to April 1st for you?

That being said--- we'll see tomorrow!

You pretty much got it. Bigot Brendan Eich issued a non-apology apology.


It's like when I told a gubernatorial candidate that I opposed his anti-immigration policy and he said, "I'm sorry you feel that way, can I count on your support in the election?"


I said to him, "Well, no, you cannot and you can be guaranteed that I will work to prevent your election

The candidate was Republican candidate Clayton Williams. Google him.


It's really sad that those who support Brendan Eich's bigotry claim we're being intolerant for standing up for equal rights for all people, when in reality they're simply repeating the arguments bigots have made throughout history.


I'm a proud Christian, and fully support gay marriage; bigots always use The Bible, or some other text to justify their bigotry and then claim we're violating their rights by telling them that if they operate a restaurant or a gas station that they have to serve black people, or that they can't refuse to sell their house or rent an apartment to Jews, or that they cannot fire someone for being gay, or who think that interracial marriage should be illegal; which is just rediculous.


Unfortunately, in most of the United States, gay people can be fired or refused a job because of their sexual orientation.


Sadly, many of the people who would deny LGBTI people equal rights are the same people who have laws that protect their rights. They're also often the same people who oppose equal pay for women.


I have no respect for those who oppose equal rights for all people and do everything in my power to prevent them from achieving their goal of denying equal rights to anyone.



I fully realize that those of whom I am speaking will now attack me because they have no real arguments. I was once received death threats and was called an extreme racial slur for supporting voting rights for African-americans; there's nothing they can say that will deter me from working to achieve equal rights for all, including equal rights for those who selfishly oppose equal rights for others.



They'll claim I'm playing the race card, or violating their right to their own religious beliefs. None of it is true, but it won't matter because they've been indoctrinated by Rush Limbaugh, Fred Phelps, Ted Nugent, Glenn Beck, the Koch brothers, Franklin Graham, Rick Warren, Phylis Schlafly, Ann Colter, and many others. The right-wing bigots pushing outrage, lies, and fear are a dime a dozen.
