As a taco enjoyer I don't think this is a serious argument and it's weird that you're taking it seriously

As someone that has been yelled at by all sides of this debate I really don't think that's true, I was getting yelled at 5 years ago too

They were yelling and called the host a xenophobe. They will not be invited back. It’s not a serious argument. But they took it seriously.

You can always get yelled at. The point is almost any expression about this topic is likely, today, to set someone in a large group off. That wasn’t true five years ago.
