Poet,

I was reading the RW thread, but am stopping because I'm finding that the peculiar obsession with LWers, particularly X, to be strange and upsetting. GZ has recently posted, not only misquoting X's heroin comment,(changing best painkiller to just best) but also implying that she is a substance abuser. I have no idea where heroin falls on the hierarchy of effective painkillers, but while there were many responses eager to insult X and the LWers stand on drugs or masturbation, none offered a single scientific rebuttal or intelligent response.

There's some pretty nasty stuff about X, and this desire to demean and hurt her borders on obsessive.

He writes:
...funny that I saw that same post about heroine (sic) being 'the best' and I just posted that comment on this thread as you posted your comments to me...<g> such a position on drugs can be well understood within the context of a poster attempting to justify his/her own drug and substance abuse...
