So your excuse for the Lawyer Gangup against the weak one, the vulnerable one, the one who annoyed you was that she was... not "moral" enough to be worthy of not being harmed. And CH? He wasn't a piggy either. But... he was "moral" enough (in your view) to attract you to ally with him against the weak one who annoyed you. (And of course she didn't meet your "moral" standards, it's important to remember.) And it's all okay because you don't care. Once you got your rocks off watching CH get his off right over the cliff onto Poet. I'll tell you how you and CH are both Piggys. You can't see what's in front of your face.

And btw, your reply was unresponsive. It was you who brought up the Lord of the Flies. This is what you wrote about Piggy, comparing him to CH: Piggy was annoying. You've probably forgotten that. He was a very trying boy for a group of Real Boys to deal with. He kept mentioning his Auntie. You might want to give the book a reread. He provoked people, constantly. That did not, imo, justify what happened to him. X, you know what? CH behavior was not "mentioning his Auntie." But that's how you've alchemized his behavior-- which is very interesting. Why would you do that, X? As I said: X, listen: Poet was Piggy, not CH. CH and you, the two lawyers, are the gang, X. You found Poet annoying. You were incited, and continue to be incited, by her weakness. You allied, and continue to ally, yourself with CH in heaping derision on her because it makes you feel superior and strong. CH is not a Piggy, X. He was a persistent and conscienceless harasser. A persecutor. He rolled a rock off a cliff onto Poet, and though it didn't kill her, it sent her to a dark place, where she needed medical care. No amount of 'framing' can change that, and disguise the fact that you didn't and don't care about her suffering (or her husband's), which was real.
