Responses that completely destroy the original argument in a way that leaves little to no room for reply - a targeted, well-placed response to another person, organization, or group of people.
The following things are not grounds for murder:
- Personal appearance ("You're fat", "You're ugly")
- Posts with little-to-no context
- Posts based on a grammar/spelling error
- Dick jokes, "Yo mama", "No, you" type responses and other low effort insults
- "Your values are bad" without any logcal or factual ways of showing that they are wrong ("I believe in capitalism" - "Well, then you must be evil" or "Fuck you you ignorant asshole")
Rules:
- Be civil and remember the human. No name calling or insults. Swearing in general is fine, but not to insult someone else.
- Discussion is encouraged but arguments are not. Don’t be aggressive and don’t argue for arguments sake.
- No bigotry of any kind.
- Censor the person info of anyone not in the public eye.
- If you break the rules you’ll get one warning before you’re banned.
- Enjoy the community in the light hearted way it’s intended.

MODERATORS
If you've ever been the victim of bullying you should already know that bystanders, by not stopping the perpetrators, implicitly validate it. That's how the perpetrators continue.
If you have not been a victim of public harrassment, kindly, stfu.
Don’t you dare demand the public step in to risk their life when you won’t even leave a relationship.
I'm not demanding anything, I'm countering your point that silent disapproval means that it's shunned upon. It's not. I'm not blaming anyone for not stepping in, I've also not stepped in several times, but be aware that that's enabling.
"Society is against this kind of behaviour" no it isn't, it fucking isn't. Sometimes individuals have good reasons, whatever, but the conclusion is that abusers feel enabled. And I'm not even touching the disparity between genders in these situations.
Ooh spicy take
