It would be like opposing gay marriage “for the lulz”
Either you have a legitimate moral stance on an issue, or you don’t. Playing the troll on an issue simply because other people annoy you means you don’t care about the issue.
I spend my time arguing with Tankies, I’m not going to sit around on my high horse when there is work to be done digging trenches.
Besides, I shared a nice recipe with them, I didn’t insult their mothers.
I legitimately have no clue what that’s supposed to mean.
I am not above lowering myself

Why would I ever oppose gay marriage? That’s just idiocy.
There are no objective legitimate moral stances, only better or worse.
Yes, that’s the point of the comparison.
Changing one’s advocated views to irritate someone else is idiocy.
So adopting the worse one out of annoyance says that you don’t actually care about the moral issue.
I feel like sharing recipes is not exactly comparable to opposing gay marriage. Maybe to a vegan, though.
