    what event caused you to associate using Brave with supporting bigotry and being homophobic?

      Your comment, that I replied to, replied to this comment. Did you notice what it said? This is something I’ve heard and read on other occasions as well.

      being homophobic

      I wouldn’t become homophobic, but by using Brave I would feel like I’d be condoning or supporting homophobia and bigotry. And I have no interest in feeling like that.

                  You are not very good at keeping up…

                  I already corrected you, saying it’s not exactly homophobic to use it. It doesn’t turn you into a homophobe. But it does inadvertently support homophobia, in my opinion.

                  There’s a difference between supporting it (perhaps unknowingly), and actually being homophobic.

                  Yes? 🤌

                  And it doesn’t matter how long ago it was.

                  You think naming your child Adolf Hitler wouldn’t be supporting Nazism? iT wAs sO lOnG aGo?!

                    naming your child adolf is something you actively did just now

                    saying using a browser who’s ceo did something 17 years ago that is no longer a danger to the gay community is inadvertently supporting homophobia is different

                    but it seems like we agree that it’s not actually homophobic, but that comment you quoted earlier did, and there’s fundamentalists like that who do
