Oh well, there's chum in the water. Swimming might not be a good idea, given the mood.
Yes, to be honest, I heard that Heatheness had made all kinds of horrible accusations, was trolling, etc. Maybe I missed something in the 50 pages, and also considering my own situation I was pretty distracted. But she certainly didn't seem excessively rude, or unwilling to support and answer for her ideas. I think her crime was not being a member of the majority.
Sometimes I feel a bit like the cops are choking me out, shouting "Stop resisting! Stop resisting!" Just because one's opinions aren't popular doesn't mean one should either be silenced or called a troll.
Now, again, I don't know what really happened here, but of what little I DID see, I didn't really see that she was as bad as everyone was saying.
She actually accused us of conspiring with you to get her thread closed down. In the moment I was understandably offended and upset about that accusation. Now I just think it's kind of hilarious.
ETA. FML. Benny, there is a split for this discussion. Please post there if you want to discuss this. I am not splitting this thread again. My head still hurts from last time.
