Yes, and? What has he done that's heteroloveist?

You have two options

Don't talk if she is very against homosloveuality until you're grown up and then you talk

Talk if she is okay about it

If you're unsure about both, try to remember if she ever mentioned anything against it or not, but if you want my honest opinion, go for the first option, get a job first and then you talk, it's the safest way, I know some people irl which their lives with they families turned into hell when they admited at your age so.

Didn't you say that your mother was rather...intolerant?

regardless, sure. this is the only one that I can think of at the moment, considering the fact that I can't link you to steam chats
but as an example, here, racism

no i was referring to night fox

frankie's done nothing wrong besides type in caps a bit

Caribou's not tribal - I agree with him. What I say in my house stays in my house.

How are you not assuming?

What if he is a person concerned about social justice but realized that the vast majority of people are not. Because of this, he acts in a manner which would call people to action and stir them up for the cause?

I'm sure that at least one person in the world behaves in this manner.

But, don't worry I won't knock you for assuming. Assuming is how the human brain works, we build our knowledge of things based on experience. When we encounter a new thing we observe properties and compare it to other things and make associations. If the associations you make appear to hold true for nearly every case, you start assuming that it is true for all cases. This can steer you wrong sometimes, but then you just adapt your definitions and wait for a little more evidence next time. Clearly Caribou had not encountered many gay people who behaved as Frankie had before. Clearly you have not encountered (that you know about) anyone concerned about social justice who practices the hypothetical situation given above before.

Basically, we all assume things and that is how our brain works. Sure, you should stop people from assuming things that are incorrect or potentially offensive, but don't get worked up about how the biology of the brain works.

caribou is completely right, so what if he's being tribal, he's allowed to, thats one of the fundamental rights as an american, doesn't make sterlings opinion socially acceptable, though, but even if caribou is tribal its completely irrelevant to this topic, caribou not knowing im gay is suddenly an issue because he may or may not be tribal, gasp!!
