minus-squareDashi@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up11arrow-down4·27 days agoWhat was said wasn’t an insult. “Your momma…” are jokes, “you suck do bad…” are insults. Tbagging a dead body is an insult. Implying you are going to rape someone and then saying it’s not rape because you would enjoy it isn’t a typical “insult”. So yeah i read what they said. It just didn’t really apply to the situation.
