Hard to Swallow
April 01, 2006
I just left a moderated comment at this blog, where the author was bemoaning a possible cure / prophylaxis for HIV, because then people wouldn't die after they do a naughty thing he used to, and most likely still does, enjoy.
I doubt my comment is going to make it past the authorization process. I find that people who take the most extreme positions possible on their blogs, have a deep distaste for anyone to critique their deceptively intelligent remarks.
I simply just wanted to make you, humble Readers, aware of the utter lack of compassion the self (and other) hatred homophobia can engender in its victims.
Feel for Steve Bennett. The pain that haunts his psyche is far, far worse than the shit that falls from his mouth.
Update: He actually replied. Terrible justification for his comment. "Letter of the Law." He misses the point of compassion so completely. Sad.
Update #2: Questions are a tough thing to handle. One can either answer them forthrightly, with honesty and conviction, or one can clam up, trill loudly, and erase the fact that someone disagreed with them. Guess which one Steven did?
