reaver894: I would just like to point out that that topic has a question mark in it and there are no actual accusations made in the post with the exception of it possibly crushing dreams, This on the otherhand is a blatant personal insult which in the past posts such as these staff have removed.
Starmaker: Oh, you're also an idiot.
1. The "repressed lesbian" thing is hate speech. So is, e.g., "[person] - welfare-leeching [n-word]?" or "[person] - dick-loving [cigarette]?"
2. Now, I don't really think
Halle Berry is harmed, because her media presence is bigger than yours, but
you're also wrong about question marks.
A single anonymous source will report to some news blog that, say, Senator Smith runs a secret gay bordello in New Orleans. Drudge will run the headline:
NEW QUESTIONS ABOUT SMITH'S SECRET GAY BORDELLO
Or perhaps there'll just be a question mark on the end:
SMITH: SECRET GAY BORDELLO ASS MASTER?
Starmaker: reaver894: You know nothing about my personal life or belief's what you have essentially done is post slander.
Starmaker: No, you see, slander is
baseless accusations, and I happen to have evidence. That evidence is
your thread.
And you are missing the point, In my topic title there is no accusation.
And would you rather I used the word deformation instead? just to save you looking it up that is "the communication of a false statement that harms the reputation of an individual" you are accusing me of being homophobic, vile, disgusting and a misogynist based on your personal interpretation of a short sentence that you have blown out of proportion.
Also, you are yourself in the very same boat as you accuse me of
with this insult you also prove your own guilt of what I can and others can interpret as hate speech in itself.
Now Starmaker, this is starting to get out of control, may I suggest that we just leave it there and call it a day, I will admit that my topic post could be interpreted other than my intention (which was to get people to open the topic nothing more) but I feel that you are really going over the top here. We dont have to agree with eachother but we should at least try to keep this civil.
