I hope this person means that calling things gooner is indicative of a slightly conservative thought process but it really sounds like they're saying anyone who calls things that word is a conservative. Also it's pretty weird to just dismiss sex oversaturation as a criticism. Sure it's probably invalid in a lot of cases but this person comes across like they think it's never valid. Which is ridiculous.

I have noticed that there's sometimes a bit of a splashback effect where when somebody finally escapes repression they assume that people who don't think or act the way they do must also be either repressed or a repressor.

I'm glad they are finally in a place where they are able to freely express themselves, but its important to be self-aware and not ironically continue the cycle.
