   @MarkAssPandi @Clover @Containment Homophobes argue that queers being visible is equal to public oscenity, but society as a whole accepts that queer love and attraction isnt inherently obscene.
   I would argue that fascists openly congregating and having demonstrations is obscene. But society as a whole accepts it as long as they toe the line.
   To be clear, I don't think there should be laws to ban rightoids from the public space because those laws swing both ways and they will just organize out of view. But their ideas are more morally repugnant to me than even actual sexual obscenity to a certain degree.
   
   We're talking about the issue of kink at pride, not of kink in public. The public can be pudic when it doesn't have fasists
   The most coherent argument I have against kink at pride is that it may be triggering for some people. To that I have to say the public space is full of content you don't control, for instance fascists. A pride parade is an event you can plan for.
   
   You have to weigh the pros and cons before saying that it's worth taking a small hit in inclusivity: people who want to attend a squeaky clean pride but cannot if there's kink.
   I'm not gonna erase those people, they may be there. But I've never heard one, and I've read dozens of people with no problem with kink be concerned on their hypothetical sake.

     @Containment @Clover @MarkAssPandi it's tricky because that's the same argument people can use to not mark nsfw images online or to never do any inclusivity efforts
     so I do want to consider the argument, I just don't want people giving it weight because of the concern trolling

     @mer @MarkAssPandi @Clover >To that I have to say the public space is full of content you don't control Yes, exactly. I also have a different view of inclusivity than most left-wing people do. To me inclusivity doesn't just mean things like gender and race diversity but it also includes having the mental capacity to be able to accept things that you don't like. Things like right-wing protests may be triggering to you, but in reality they have just has much the right to organize than any of us do.

     @Containment @Clover @MarkAssPandi replace it with arachnophobia
     I really like spiders, to the point when people ask me not to show spiders to them I feel attacked. But it's valid to them.
     Crucially, they are asking me to accomodate their problem. Not the advertiser's problem or hypothetical passerbys.

     @mer @Clover @MarkAssPandi Honestly I mask nsfw images as such because other people ask it of me.

     I think in the perfect world browsing porn in public shouldn’t be considered weird. Like fuck, just let people enjoy stuff?
