and it references no DUers. I am responsible for what I write but not what you think about it. You are not entitled to police thought crimes. I can hardly lie about a DUer when I don't mention a DUer. That you work yourself into a rage over what you think might be in my head is your problem entirely. You didn't even bother to confront the person who linked to or characterized the other thread. Instead, you came straight for me. You couldn't be more transparent. Let's make one thing perfectly clear. You have no right to control what I think. When I see people denounce rape prevention campaigns as "haranguing men," I have every right to form an opinion. That you consider my thought a "lie" is meaningless.

I'd like to know what is this hierarchy of Duers is that is above approach while you accuse me of being a liar and full of hate? Why is it okay for you to directly insult a DUer? What exactly is it that makes me so inferior to those who turn to the American Enterprise Institute in order to deny rape culture?

Clearly you have no idea what the video is about. it is not that people need to talk about rape. It is about rape culture, the very thing the members you consider so superior to me deny exists. You couldn't even bother to watch then video and instead decided the point of this thread was to find someone for you to take your anger out on. The Bennyboy approach to DU is getting old. Find another outlet for your frustrations. I have nothing to do with your life, and it's going to stay that way. You have no basis to assume I am irrational. You are the one who jumped down my throat over a barf icon and can't even bother to watch the video that is the point of this OP. You response has been entirely emotional, hasn't engaged with the content of the OP, insisted that I am "lying about other DUers' for harboring thoughts you don't approve of while simultaneous hurling a slew of insults against me. I see a lot of projection on your part. I really don't care what your reasons for it are, just leave me out of your shit.

All questions posed above are rhetorical. I am not interested in further discussion with someone who has been as consistently rude and insulting as you have toward me.
