Subject: [FairfieldLife] Does PC trump satire?
I have posted a lot of personal attacks on folks I have decided were
trolls, but I thought I was doing so with creativity.
For instance, that list of about ten insults aimed at Willy that I wrote were
quite creative despite their being vitriolic and MEANT to sting. Were they
creative enough to be called satire or were they mere mud slinging? Can't I
actually justify wanting to sting someone in response to their attacks on me?
Why does PC trump my right as an artist to express my disdain in any manner
that is not physically destructive of the property of others? If the
emotional responses of others is considered to be their property that can be
damaged by a well aimed blurb, then I think we have a problem, Houston.
Whose emotions?
I am not responsible for my brothers' feelings.
No one is -- except themselves -- maybe. Just maybe. Karma is unfathomable --
does anyone argue with that concept?
If I am the arbiter of what is truth, what is smarm, what is hate speech etc.,
then let me tells ya -- I am ABSOLUTELY OFFENDED BY ALMOST EVERYTHING POSTED
HERE.
See? I cannot be allowed to impose my value-set upon anyone, because I might
