(20,219 posts)from those who will allow no criticism of their right to not only post jerk-off material, but also to attack anyone talking sbout it as a political issue for women.
People can be having an intelligent discussion, analyzing media messages about women, citing expert sources and attempting to share understanding ---and still, the usual suspects will jump in to dump sarcam, baiting, insults and ridiculous circular sophistries.
And they keep at it, over and over again. Such obvious, dedicated efforts to shut down a specific type of speech is obvious.
Claiming some imagined "right" to stroke deliberately in the faces of people who dont want to be treated that way is immature hubris.
Allowing such repeat offenders to stay and keep doing it--because they are obviously getting off on their trolling--undermines the reason DU exists.
