You're literally a moderator....
"ostensibly unrelated topics" yeah see we covered that a while ago, maybe you should be paying attention before writing up a retort that you think holds value just because you obfuscated it with a bit of bs.
Not to mention trying to gang up on a commenter as an admin team just shows how little justification you had that you need to drown out my words with your nonsense.
You're right, I don't owe you my time and energy in explaining what I said as none of it was inflammatory (and in fact the response comment was, which you gloss over) and I completely disagree that such a nuance needed to be present in my original comment, otherwise every comment on this website would be paragraphs long justifying themselves merely for existing. My original comment was fine as it was.
It's sad that this needs to be spelled out but I thought it was quite clear from my comment that regardless of proposed policies put in place, the corruption of the officials putting those policies in place ensures that gender-based violence is not put to an end given that it's so embedded in the culture that the guy proposing it is openly and publicly able to do it himself. If you understood anything about DV you would understand that reading an article headline like that is inflammatory - and scoffworthy - we may as well be reading "Biden administration introduces plan to end racism, it looks promising". Try telling that to people of colour who suffer through it every day. There was nothing wrong with my comment and it's pretty abhorrent that you felt fit to remove it, let alone labelled it as inflammatory and meaningless, while the guy who responded with something actually reportable got nothing.
Why was my comment about Joe Biden's inappropriately touching young girls (publicly, there is endless video evidence of it) removed by mods? It's 100% relevant to the topic - gender-based violence - groping and sexualising children is violence. Any mods care to explain? There was nothing wrong with my original comment.
