Adding "incel" to your tag

Simply that as I grow older I have learned that nuance doesn't exist on the internet. A human is boiled down to a few lines of text in a comment. That comment becomes everything the other human knows about them.

Nuance is knowing that humans are capable of holding two separate beliefs, for example that I can believe that the sex industry is exploitative, and also admit that this is funny, and know that those two things don't contradict each other.

It's the same argument to me of How I Met Your Mother's character, Barney. A sexist pig who in all sense of the word is a horrible human being. A binary approach to life says you can never watch the show or laugh at the jokes because he is in there. A nuanced approach is being able to watch and enjoy it, while also knowing that he's a horrible character, and we should probably make it clear we don't want more sitcom characters like him.

However, like I said, virtue signalling is important to many people, they have to know that you know how moral they are. To me, we're all very complex shades of grey, and I'm completely okay with admitting that things are more complex than a comment can express. Yes, I know the irony of this comment
