          There’s no polite way to say this: have you guys stumbled upon any of the naked boobs, yet!? Like, holy what!? I can’t believe some of the things they’re allowing up on here!

        So, if I slap you, it’s assault, but if loads of people make slapping you a regular occurrence, we should stop caring?

            I care. Why do I need to see someone else’s tweet slapped over a picture of a shitty goatee? It adds nothing. Just repost the original.

            Wee, another person who doesn’t understand how analogies work. You see, class, saying A is analogous to B is not a statement of equivalency, but a statement of structural similarity. The response ‘welcome to the internet’ is sarcasm meant to imply the previous responder is foolish for having standards of some kind and should simply accept and expect that people cannot be held to any standard. The further response asking the respondent, via analogy, if more people doing something is all that it takes to make it acceptable, asks them to consider the implications of the belief that repetition makes right.

            Now that you have a more fullsome understanding of things, will you demonstrate the maturity and intelligence to integrate that knowledge into action or will you demonstrate an inability to comprehend, only to raise a pretense of reason?
