Alright, lets play a game!!! It's called "Guess who said what!!!"
Here's how it goes:
I will give you two statements that I saw recently made on this site, and you tell me which one was written by a right leaning member of JU, and which one was written by a left leaning member of JU. Ready?!?! OK!!!
Statement number 1: "Fuck you, you asshole."
Statement number 2: "You really are a dumb fucker."
Can't tell who said what?!?! Confused as to who's on the right and who's on the left?!?! Here's one more hint:
Statement number 1 was largely overlooked by everyone except the individual who it was directed at, and the individual who posted the original article.
Statement number 2 was pounced upon by various people, one of them with authority, and was promised a quick and definitive exile.
So then, two personal attacks, both using rather infantile terms, neither adding anything in particular to the topic at hand. The only difference, perhaps, is that one of them (statement 1) was made by a guest responding to a thread, therefore establishing the comments as not only rude but completely unjustified. The other statement (statement 2) was made by the person who wrote the article, therefore establishing the comment as rude but somewhat justified, if I am to take the various statements that you can write whatever garbage you want as long as it's on your own blog seriously. That, and the fact that statement 2 was made in response to statement 1, and so was really more of a defense than an attack. After all, we do remember that you can expect to get what you give, do we not?
The other difference, of course, is that statement 1 was largely swept under the rug and ignored, and statement 2 was put under a microscope and caught in the administrative crosshairs. The individual who wrote statement 1 was ignored, while the individual who wrote statement 2 was promised a swift exile.
Now then: Who's left and who's right?
