    I basically used exactly the same post except I substituted “pigs” for “groomers.”

    My post deleted within 24 hours, this post remains after almost a year.

    This is not the first time I highlight this post either.

    And you really can't figure out the difference? It's just baffling to you?

    Are they both insults or are they not?

    What you just like one insult but not another?

    I just want to be clear as to what the standard is, you make it awfully confusing sometimes river.

    One is pretty generic and mild ... saying that people are acting badly.
    The other:
    That's what you're accusing your fellow posters of ... and then you whine about it being deleted?

    Urban Dictionary: groomer

    No, she didn’t say some of us were acting like pigs, she said some of us were pigs. Seems like a textbook violation of the rules to me.

    River, spare me the pearl clutching routine when this forum is littered with insinuations that the right-wing posters around here are Jim Crow style racists.

    Seems like you can dish it out but you can’t take it.

    Ah. So what, out of curiosity, is the difference between being a pig and acting like a pig?

    Seriously bud. You’re not much for objectivity. You always stick up for posters on your side of the political spectrum. And it’s literally being spelled out for you and you still remain baffled.

    He complained about his post being deleted and I'm trying to explain it to him.

    I can see that. You aren’t able to see a blind spot though. Its no fun arguing balls and strikes with you.
    But it seems you’re calls always side with one team.

    Your explanation is that one insult is worse than the other.

    Your explanation is trash.

    A little off topic but since Mrs51 is doing better now after her heart surgery and since they replaced her heart valves with pig valves is it rude of me to walk behind her oinking like a pig?

    So much nonsense. The right is full of snowflakes that cry a river when their bad behavior is called out. If you act like a pig you’re a pig. If you repeatedly speak like a bigot you’re a bigot. If you act like a fascist you’re a fascist. These monikers are based on observed behavior or posting habits. The poster did not “insult” a specific poster just like I did not now and that’s not something that’s disallowed in the rules of this forum, if it were this would be a ghost town.

    Groomer has an entirely different implication and the charge is not based on any underlying behavior.

    Cryharder.

    So don’t cry hard when you and your buds defend and encourage grooming. Then you will get the groomer tag because it fits.
    Fair?

    Totally fair. I will never defend pedophiles. Don’t think anyone else will either regardless of their political stripe.

    But when you encourage that behavior with liberal,woke ideas, you risk being called groomer. Right?

    Funny. That's a sufficiently acceptable take for any middle schooler. The flip side of course is if you support punitive government takeover that restricts minority groups... you're a racist fascist. That's just as insufficient. Middle schooler have the life experience to only see black/white, no shades of gray. Don't be a middle schooler.

    I am two steps ahead of you. It’s another go to move by rhe right using words incorrectly. You can use what ever words you want in addressing me I’m no snowflake but I’ll eviscerate those with phony arguments.

    If middle school is my style, I literally matched it from your guys. Why not call your side on the name calling? Oh that’s right, your a team guy.
    I can appreciate that.

    You’re not ahead of me. We’re on the same step. You just think your right and smarter than the cons.
    You’re self awareness skills are lacking.
