GUEST,Joe Offer, at the Women's Center BS: responding to 'hate speech' (118* d) RE: BS: responding to 'hate speech' 28 Jul 08

Bee says:
    My point above was in answer to Joe's belief that, on Mudcat, anyway, one could/should either be polite and reasonable or be silent in the face of bigoted statements. The point being, why should we allow people who are simply hateful and trollish to go unchecked in our own corner of the internet? Why should we not let such people know that we disagree strongly and with righteous indignation, not just academically?
...because they sit at home and masturbate when they see your "righteous indignation," that's why. Your righteous indignation is exactly what they crave.
Now do you understand?
Next time you respond to trolls, think what they're doing alone at home while they're reading your indignant response.
