That's why I included the qualifier that 'some' intend no real hurt. They just think it's cool to use those ugly names and they use them with no more thought or intent than using the 'f' bomb or other crude speech. I agree that there are some who just plain unpleasant, judgmental, hateful people and they do intend to hurt. Once that is obvious, I try very hard not to engage those in conversation at all.
I do think bearing false witness, libel, slander, trying to get people to despise those you despise using false narratives or repeating gossip is the worst offense on these boards and/or social media. It is definitely not Christian or what any ethical people do.
And hypocrisy comes in as a close second.
For example, how much band width, how many words, how much time has been expended on trashing Donald Trump over those classified documents, none of which have yet to be shown to be illegally in his possession? Yet none of the leftists at USMB or anywhere else are even criticizing Joe Biden for much more suspicious document findings and many even excuse him. Not the same thing at all they say with zero evidence of the actual situation in both cases. Biden's approval ratings have not really changed at all since all the publicity on that.
Conclusion: the leftists don't give a rat's ass about classified documents; they could care less. They just want the excuse to trash, condemn, accuse Donald Trump. And that is most unChristian, unethical, indefensible to anybody with any sense of ethics, fair play, equal protection or due process.
