in theory, even my jeering at some Gavneisha here, in theory, could lead to her hanging herself one fine morning, and every time i i do ridicule some Gavneisha here, i have a pang of consciousness - what if she is vulnerable, what if i am really hurting her? in that sense, it's best to be an angel and never ever ridicule or berate anybody.
so, jokes at the expense of a vulnerable or POTENTIALLY vulnerable person - how do i know if the same Gavneisha is not on 2 antidepressants? - are BAD. really bad. and i am guilty.
that is one "pole". or one coordinate axis.
on teh other one - are we going to walk on eggshells? all of us always? for fear of offending someone? becasue they always will be. some people are offended by baby pictures on FB.
no, we are not going to do that. and each of us is our own judge as to when we accidentally or purposefully "crossed the line" into bad taste or worse, into perpetrating harm.
