Sauce for the goose.
From the charming thread in question.
2. Personal Attacks. I have stated above that mentioning your presence in the other thread, explicitly or implicitly, does not necessarily constitute a "call out" as the group's purpose (in part) is to discuss perceived attacks against LGBT figures. Let me stress perceived, as I do not think it was your intention to attack the woman in question. That said, I need to ask of you one thing. When coming into the LGBT forum, it is decidedly unacceptable explicitly call out our members (some of whom are our hosts) with google searched talking points. The reason that this is unacceptable is because it constitutes a personal attack on a protected group of people in a protected group. Would this behavior be allowed in GD? As of late, depending on the jury. But, it is certainly unacceptable in the LGBT group.
I am being talked about/addressed in a place where I am unable to respond.
This is "civility"?
"Google searched talking points"? Sorry, pal. The RECORD here at Democratic Underground. The record of me being attacked repeatedly with false claims by the same person repeating that conduct in the thread in question.
Naming a DU member and making FALSE statements about them is not a call-out???
You're right. And I did call it precisely what it was in that thread, and got my post deleted in response.
Hey, I guess that's democracy.
Or mob rule.
Never mind a person's own track record and the truth about that person. Just let personal vendettas rule. Congratulations.
