I understand and I hope you'll forgive my nitpicking. It's just that when I read the paragraph with the Sacco & Vanzetti reference, I got the vibe of something in the lines "look what else the Italians were doing" and that rubbed me the wrong way. I would have much preferred something like "were _wrongly_ indicted of", to avoid the misunderstanding. I hope this comment will be taken not as a void critique by somebody who got offended, but as a reminder that phrasing is important to not to have your writings be interpreted the other way around.
- jessaustin 11y agoI write obnoxious comments all the time, and I can't recall when I've been downvoted as much as this thread. It's clear that you and I and our non-psychic reading habits have touched a nerve with this author and his band of acolytes.
- DannoHung 11y agoI'm downvoting you for implying without evidence that the author is responsible for a backlash against you. You are not contributing anything to discussion.
- DamnInteresting 11y ago> this author and his band of acolytes. I'm just keeping you distracted while my minions and I complete construction of my doomsday device. Mwahaha, etc.
- jessaustin 11y agoHaha, touché! b^)
