I seriously, truly, and honestly, with no desire to cause trouble, would really like to understand the victimization thing

Posted by ty97 Oct 11 '18, 12:31

Why? I don't just mean it about people here, but in general? Why?

Responses:

- Stuff like this. -- (link) - Strongbad Oct 11, 13:14 [Backboard] 2
  - Okay, then respond. Why do you think he is wrong? Debate it. -- nm - ty97 Oct 11, 13:16 1
    - The point isn't whether he's right or wrong. - Strongbad Oct 11, 16:16

  - I can understand why that seems like a double standard and hypocritical, yes. -- nm - Strongbad Oct 11, 12:56
I still don't understand how a thread about a hat in the White House turned into that...but here's a video about victimization. -- (link) - AB-raham Lincoln - Slamtonian Oct 11, 12:33 [youtube]
if you could point out an instance of victimization, I would be glad to take a stab at it? -- nm - groiny Oct 11, 12:32 34

  - So like when someone defines "unruly" for you - is that someone thinking you're stupid or being a victim? nm - AB-raham Lincoln - Slamtonian Oct 11, 12:49 1

- ty was an ass, I said as much, suddenly I’m a victim because I had the nerve to call him out on being an ass. - IrishStephen Oct 11, 12:34 30
  - I was referencing Strongbad's post in fact. -- nm - ty97 Oct 11, 12:42 26
    - And how was his post in any way playing being a victim? Max asked "Do Republicans...." I answered on the next board, strongbad sarcastically posted - IrishStephen Oct 11, 12:49 25
      - My take is that Max was making a joke about the sort of Republicans that would post on FB/Twiter about Obama’s tan suit etc not being presidential - Roger More Oct 11, 12:54 15
        
        OK, fine. ty's response still wasn't necessary or warranted. -- nm - IrishStephen Oct 11, 12:57 14
        
        He didn’t give you the benefit of the doubt (you could have been playing along with the joke) but - Roger More Oct 11, 13:04
        
        With everything going on in this country, why they hell is anyone worried about a fucking hat? - ty97 Oct 11, 12:59 1
        
        it is not something people are worried about, they are just commenting on the lack of awareness of the one wearing it. - groiny Oct 11, 13:01
        
        That whole thread went from 0 to evil in record time. And it's a shame. nm -- nm - AB-raham Lincoln - Slamtonian Oct 11, 12:58 10

        I find when someone eyerolls me in person, that is is pretty damn disrespectful, yeah. -- nm - groiny Oct 11, 13:02 7

        how about you don't bring me into the equation at all? We are not talking about me here, we are talking in general..... - groiny Oct 11, 13:07 5

        to make it simple, it is about respecting people. - groiny Oct 11, 13:15 3

        well, I sure can't talk about how someone else feels...... - groiny Oct 11, 13:28 1

      - I'm tired too, of people like you. - ty97 Oct 11, 12:53 8
        
        Tired of people like me. Well, alright then. -- nm - IrishStephen Oct 11, 12:55 7
        
        See David's post above. -- nm - ty97 Oct 11, 12:56 6
        
        FWIW, I don't mean it mean. I adore and respect Stephen (and Strongbad and Ender). That's why I worry about them. - David Oct 11, 13:01 5
        
        You may not mean it mean, but come on dude. You just told them, quite literally, that they're not good people. nm - AB-raham Lincoln - Slamtonian Oct 11, 13:08 3
        
        it is times like this where I am glad I am not loyal to any party. -- nm - groiny Oct 11, 13:10 1
        
        *eyeroll* -- nm - ty97 Oct 11, 13:18
        
        I don't know how else to say it. It's like trying to talk someone out of committing a serious crime. - David Oct 11, 13:10
        
        I realize there was no animus in your post. -- nm - ty97 Oct 11, 13:04
  - my rule of thumb, is that an *eyeroll* in person or in text, is not a great way to make friends. - groiny Oct 11, 12:37 2

      - (Independent of the people and subject matter, this is a pretty funny reply.) -- nm - David Oct 11, 12:52
