Considering how much they're harassed and dog piled on by basically entire communities I don't know how you couldn't be after a certain point.

I go around shitting on everyone's porch and now everyone is yelling at me for shitting on everyone's porch. It really makes me want to just shit on people's porches when they do that!

This is exactly what I mean "shitting on your porch" is what you said. Someone using a letter you don't like is a personal attack to you. You realize how fucking crazy that sounds to normal people? This is why I think it's psychotic how people react to that guy. It has nothing to do with you. Lol.

You're missing the point.

They aren't mad about using the letter. They are angry because the person using it is a huge asshole apparently, so they shit on them for using that letter because it is an easy target.

The assholish behaviour has plenty to do with them if they encountered it.

I've encountered that person plenty. Though not for a little while now that I think on it. However, I've never seen them be an asshole at all. Now admittedly maybe some of these animals have hounded them to the point where they get snippy in their comments I don't know. Or it's even possible they've run into some kind of CopyCat . All I know is I've seen entire communities and like dozens of memes targeting this one user because they use a letter that people that annoys people apparently. And it's insane.

So I very much question the integrity and honesty of the people that are telling you they're an asshole. Cuz like I said he just said someone using a letter is like shitting on his porch. That's a level of derangement I'm not comfortable with.

Did you even read the comment that started this particular thread?

Or are you OK with someone saying that men wish they'd get sexually harrassed?

[–] mrbutterscotch@feddit.org 7 points 2 days ago (1 children)

To be fair, I don't think they meant using the letter is like shitting on people's porch, but rather being an asshole to people.

[–] Sharkticon@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Except to him they're the same thing

[–] mrbutterscotch@feddit.org 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

How so? I don't see how you're getting that impression.

He's saying you can't excuse being an asshole due to harassment, because the harassment started because he was an asshole.

Nowhere did he say using a letter is being an asshole.

[–] Sharkticon@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 day ago

No no you misunderstand. I'm saying he's a liar.

[–] PapaStevesy@lemmy.world 10 points 2 days ago

That's clearly what they want, I have no sympathy.
