You were triggered, and so you lashed out with an attack aimed at bystanders.
"mature and responsible" have nothing to do with it. The word is: immoral.
- disintegore 3y agoOver the years I've seen so many variations of this. "u mad", "triggered", "seethe", "rent free", etc. I don't know why the internet insists on deriding anyone that reacts strongly to anything. It's something you ought to grow out of after middle school.
- schaefer 3y agoGreat discussion point. I'm all for strong reactions. Heated debate, swift actions, deep self reflection. Yes, all welcome. For example, if OP had password protected his site I would applaud. But my personal views are: - strong reactions aren't "justification" to further escalate violence. - intentionally using that specific image to inflict harm on people is definitely violence. So, I'm going to take a moment to advocate for that perspective, Even though I may not sway anyone. After all, silence is acceptance.
