This is fucking stupid. The moral outrage at smut is also stupid, but this is a monumentally idiotic way to argue that point. The Turner Diaries are also 'just letters,' as are the bible, the CIA's 'enhanced interrogation techniques' manual, the 'Letter From a Birmingham Jail,' Romeo & Juliet, Anti-Oedipus, and your friend's suicide note.

Downvoting your comment only supports your argument. Hilarious.

Yes yes the more unpopular I am the more right I am very logical you are a smart person and that is a reasonable and not defensive take

Oh no! A string of letters has taken on an offensive configuration! I must downvote to demonstrate that words are meaningless!

Does that really make sense to you?

In the context of this conversation, it is kind of amazing how you see words as just formulas we re-mix and thow at each other to win (declare victory?) in internet arguments; it is pretty strong implicit support for your position.
