Your comment was perfectly ok until this part:
>there’s no need to denigrate the special place that IHaD has in our society out of some hipster-esque desire to demonstrate true fandom.
You're imputing a lot of motives based on nothing in the parent comment.
- bradleyjg 5y agoA4E seem to take it okay. That it was a funny image was half the reason I included that part. Chillax.
- jancsika 5y ago> You're imputing a lot of motives based on nothing in the parent comment. To be fair, OP is responding to an ambiguity. Was GP's point that "I Have a Dream" is great and it's a shame that the wider public doesn't know more of MLK's great speeches? Or was the point that "I Have a Dream" is subpar when compared to the other speeches and thus misrepresents his output? tldr; Was GP saying "I Have a Dream" is the "Beethoven's 5th" of speeches, or "Ravel's Bolero" of speeches? Upshot-- OP is not being generous by jumping on the more divisive interpretation. However, since it is a valid interpretation OP's lack of generosity is based on something and not nothing. Fin.
- watwut 5y agoYou have to work really hard to twist that comment into meaning that speech is subpar. That ambiguity is just not there.
