Clearly HoF set a precedence for that sort of thing, which makes all the subsequent complaining in places like meta about "copycat threads" all the more ludicrous.

But, then, different rules, right?

Speaking of which, since noonehereeversaysPIVcantbeconsensual-- why the linking to twisty in your sig? How come she doesn't get tossed under the bus for her, ah, "nuanced definition of consent"?

Shit, some people were basically accusing Jeff of being an apologist for child abuse, over one totally unrelated link to some guy who said some sick crap once several decades ago.. I'm sure you remember that!- even though, unlike Valerie Solanas, he never actually shot anyone:

So... if someone here had a link in their sig to a group or blog espousing anything one tenth as crazy as the shit "twisty" says, we'd never hear the end of it, would we.
