Now I'm Under Lockdown Due to Protests and Looting

Be careful there, N.

But you were the one that got butt hurt and went after me personally when I teased you and Hollow about being conspiracy theorists.

I wasn't hurt at all by your comment. Just because I made a salient point doesn't mean I was hurt by it.

[Noivous]

Oh no Vee I've had much better posts than that...I was half asleep on that one.

I don't think all black people are dangerous do you? I don't think all white people are dangerous either do you?

And charging someone as a conspiracy theorist is just a charge to silence and marginalize someone. An educated person like yourself should know that.

N.

So I went back to page 5 and pulled this one up. Is this the one you're talking about Antsyvee? I still don't see the insult. You're an educator...please educate me.

[AntsyVee]

I was teasing you and Hollow about being conspiracy theorists. Instead of just teasing me back like you usually do, you personally went after me implying that I'm trying to silence you, and then since you know about me being a teacher, you used that to chastise me like I'm a little kid. I find that insulting because I take my job seriously, and I go out of my way make sure all opinions are expressed. And you know that.

[Noivous]

The thing about this modus operandi of communicating is that there is no tone.
And in regard to the teacher comment no personal attack was intended. Believe me if I were going to insult you there would be no ambiguity.

But I must say I do find it rather ironic that a teacher be so sensitive about being spoken to as a little kid when it's what they do every day...except in the summertime when they're on vacation. I mean teachers can still learn right?

Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe that you believe that I do respect you. If you do you'd be right. Sure, I can have an acerbic tongue now and then that's what comes from spending 20 years as a chief steward in a union...in another life. But it's rarely personal.

So what's up for the vacation?

N.

[AntsyVee]

I have a pretty thick skin. I have to in my line of work. But I do have some sensitivities, as all people do. And I also believe in boundaries. My job is one of them because I take it so seriously. So I'm just letting you know that if you go after me personally regarding that, I consider it hitting below the belt.

As for summer, traveling is out. Normally on summer vacation I go and visit all the people I don't get to see during the school year. This year the aim is to get the landscaping done on the yard. But today it rained, so I get the day off I guess I could reorganize the garage...but I'd rather sit on my butt reading LOL

"Mommy, what does 'defund the police' mean?"

"It means Donald Trump gets reelected in November, honey."

[FrankT]

And then he'll create a dictatorship and impose his will on the world!

[WiseMonkey]

The Trumper is against a new world order so that won't happen but USA will get a lot more of the same as they've already had (which may appeal to some)

[FrankT]

The Trumper is against a new world order so that won't happen

Oh yeah? How do you know that?

[AntsyVee]

And then he'll create a dictatorship and impose his will on the world!
