Excuse me but did you read what you wrote? Heck, lots of people on SI would like to see me dead
That was a nasty and hateful thing for YOU to say. You accused unnamed persons on SI of desiring your death. And the fact that you didn't name these multiple persons, amounted to an insinuation that it was anyone and everyone you've interacted negatively with on SI.
"tongue in cheek" I'm sorry - people don't go around saying things like this unless they mean it.
I, of course, won't go around trashing you.
Not directly and not openly, but you already trashed everybody who's ever had an unpleasant post from you. Pseudo-polite passive aggression is still aggression.
Some words on the subject of passive aggression from a wikipedia site in case you're not familiar with the concept:
Often passive-aggressive behavior manifests itself in individuals who view themselves as "peaceful." These individuals feel that expressing their anger through passive-aggressive behavior is morally favorable to direct confrontation. The lack of repercussions resulting from passive-aggressive behavior can lead to an unchecked continual attack, albeit passive, on one's acquaintances. .... In the psychoanalytic theory of transactional analysis, many types of passive-aggressive behavior are interpreted as "games" with a hidden psychological payoff, and are classified into stereotypical scenarios with names like "See What You Made Me Do" and "Look How Hard I've Tried".
Sound familiar? Here's an example from your most recent post --> My hope is that you, and the rest of the folks here, will learn to treat people on SI with at least the same courtesy which I hope you exercise in 3d. Most people self censor a little in 3d with the personal trash talking. If you don't treat people with a little courtesy, try not to wonder too much why they avoid you, ban you, or elect not to talk to you. It's not your politics, it's the rudeness. |
