1.)
I was not attacking you for the surface
reason of your vote. On the surface, you were protecting our collective innocence and inexperience (warning: sarcasm) from making the 'mistake' of trying to connect people to the vote leader before everybody has posted.However, your surface reason has a few hidden assumptions/connotations that it pushes, which I
am
attacking. The ones in particular that concern me are:-->
a.)
That DGB is largely responsible for pointing out that the town will look for partners for a possible MBL-scum (and that it would have likely gone unnoticed otherwise);-->
b.)
That damage is probable from DGB's post. This requires: (i) that MBL be scum; and (ii) that at least one non-poster knows that MBL is scum and would therefore fear being connected with him;-->
c.)
That DGB was serious about lynching MBL (and consequently that the three non-posters would also think the collective town was serious about lynching MBL). I find it hard to believe you would not recognize the playfulness in DGB's post.Note: Of the three, it is
c
that concerns me the most. The other two are almost negligible, but enough for me to wonder about.2.)
