It is disreputable to claim that X 'mentioned' that she has a 'distaste' for truth,
principle, human values, and such, when it never happened.
Don't you get this, really? That it is wrong to try to demonize someone by
making people believe they said something when they DIDN'T SAY IT?
And disreputable to defend this practice?
Ask for a citation of when X said she had a distaste for those things.
Well, I guess I take the word "mentioned" more broadly than you do. That seems to be where we differ.
I think that if somebody takes a position it is fair to say they mention it. For example, I don't think it would be unfair to characterize your posts by saying "E mentioned that she had a distaste of the way brees treated X" even though you never have specifically said that, as far as I recall.
Let's assume you haven't said exactly that in any of your posts. Do you think it would be unfair to characterize your collection of posts as mentioning your distaste for the way brees treated X? Maybe you do. I don't. Perhaps that's the difference between us.
The other difference, of course, is that we have somewhat different views of X, though maybe not as different as might appear at first blush. That's getting muddled up in this whole thing.
Anyhow, I will try not to post back to you again until you've had a chance to read the post where I try to make my position crystal clear. If after that you still have issues with me, I would be glad to discuss them. But responding to posts written before you read that is, I hope, redundant. |
