The ellipsis doesn't matter, because whatever reservations you may have about the comment, your final verdict is that it is harmless. I don't care whatever reservations you have. They only serve to make your position seem more palatable when in fact what matters isn't your reservations, it's your conclusion. And your conclusion is wrong. Maybe you are misguiding yourself with softening language like "crude, terribly crude" to lead you to a conclusion you realize is wrong, immoral.
- mpweiher 8y ago> your final verdict is that it is harmless. No. My final verdict is that it is not "denying the right to exist". If you can't tell the difference, I really can't help you.
- mcphage 8y ago> > your final verdict is that it is harmless. > No. My final verdict is that it is not "denying the right to exist". You disagree that it’s harmless... does that mean you consider such speech harmful? Does it constitute harm?
- mpweiher 8y agoReading comprehension? I disagreed with "your final verdict is that it is harmless" Because my "verdict" was that it is not "denying the right to exist". I also said the language was "despicable" and "crude", all of which I can do without knowing whether or not it is harmful, on which I haven't said anything.

- mcphage 8y agoFair enough, so I’m asking: do you think it is harmless or harmful?
