Yes, that thread is rich in bigotry examples. Here's another one.

Note the subject of Franken's sexuality, and "mouth," being raised out of the blue, indicating that in the writer's mind the comedian's donation of significant time and resources to support our troops' morale must necessarily involve the act of fellatio or a yearning for it. Note also the characterization of his audience as "hairy legged feminists" and "smelly leftists," all physical, bodily thoughts he has about those with whom he disagrees.
The word "pansy" is used by this poster 16 times (sixteen) in connection with a man who has organized four USO tours into dangerous areas and is currently organizing one for next Christmas (and who is, btw, a married heterosexual father.)
As for trying to understand the phenomenon, as I pointed out on that thread, "If you start fantasizing about some straight guy's mouth in connection with soldiers, on the basis of nothing whatever out there in the world but only, solely, on the basis of images generated by your own brain, it's your sexual thoughts that are at issue, not anybody else's." |
