Morality without God

[Angrboda]

More fucking lies.  I gave you some friendly advice, suggesting that, "If you find yourself unable to behave respectfully in any discussion, perhaps the best thing for you to do is withdraw."   It seemed good advice following upon your declaring that you become twitchy if certain subjects are discussed in a certain way.  What part of "If you find yourself unable," translates in your mind as me saying that you were not being respectful?  It was simple advice that anyone should follow.  That you took that as me "deciding" that you weren't being respectful is fucking reaching.  And the latter part is also true.  Threatening people that you will become twitchy if they behave a certain way and that they are being watched are both veiled threats that have no place in a good-faith discussion.

The only reason you don't want to discuss this is because you can't defend your behavior.

I suggested that if you were finding the discussion too intense for you, self-moderation might be advised.  The reply I got back was that I was saying rape victims were guilty of something, telling me I'm being watched, and accusing me of limiting thread participation.  That was not at all warranted.  Own your behavior.

How is the view from your high horse?

If you're asking if I made mistakes, too, yes, I did. I shouldn't have called you a liar. I don't know whether this is who I am or if this is the result of a year of isolation, but my mind is just not as sharp as it once was. I'm sorry for getting on my high horse and I'm sorry for any misunderstanding. I wasn't trying to tell you not to participate.
